Introduction
Oxford fabric, when combined with PU (Polyurethane) or PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) coating, becomes a powerhouse of performance, making it the ideal choice for manufacturing a wide range of outdoor products, with tent fabric being a prime application.Oxford fabric is a woven textile known for its incredible versatility and durability. It is originally named after the prestigious University of Oxford but has found its way into numerous applications due to its robust nature.What truly sets our Oxford fabric apart is the advanced coating technology we employ. The addition of PU or PVC coatings takes this fabric to the next level, enhancing its inherent qualities to match the demanding requirements of outdoor applications.
Applications of Oxford Fabrics
Tent Manufacturing: Oxford fabrics are particularly popular in the production of tents. Their combination of durability and waterproofing is essential for providing shelter in outdoor environments. Whether it’s a family camping trip or a mountaineering expedition, these fabrics are up to the task. They can endure harsh weather conditions, from heavy rain to strong winds, ensuring the safety and comfort of those inside.
Raincoats and Outdoor Clothing: Oxford fabrics are also used in the creation of high-quality raincoats and outdoor clothing. These materials provide excellent protection against rain and wind, keeping wearers dry and comfortable during inclement weather. Whether it’s a lightweight jacket for a hike or a heavy-duty raincoat for extreme conditions, Oxford fabrics perform admirably.
Backpacks and Luggage: Oxford fabrics are a favorite choice for manufacturers of backpacks, luggage, and travel bags. Their durability and resistance to abrasion ensure that these products can withstand the rigors of travel. The lightweight nature of the fabric is particularly advantageous for those on the move, as it allows them to carry their belongings without adding unnecessary weight.
Outdoor Gear: Beyond tents, clothing, and bags, Oxford fabrics are also used in various outdoor gear such as tarps, ground cloths, and even outdoor furniture. Their versatility makes them an ideal choice for any product that needs to withstand outdoor conditions.
Performance Attributes
Wear resistance and durability
Oxford fabric is known for its excellent wear resistance. This makes them perfect for tent making. The fabric can withstand the rigors of outdoor use, including contact with rough surfaces like rocks and branches, without showing signs of wear. Even in harsh conditions, Oxford fabric maintains its structural integrity, ensuring your tent is long-lasting.
At the same time their durability is a result of the inherent strength of the fabric and the reinforcement of the PU or PVC coating. This combination of toughness and elasticity ensures your tent will last for years, even with regular use in challenging conditions. You can be confident that your investment in an Oxford fabric tent will provide long-term value.
Waterproofing
The PU or PVC coating takes the inherent water-resistant properties of Oxford fabric to the next level. It provides an effective barrier against moisture, making the fabric completely waterproof. This means that even during heavy rain or in damp environments, your tent will keep you dry and comfortable. The waterproofing feature ensures that you can enjoy the great outdoors without worrying about leaks or water seeping in.
Lightweight
Despite their remarkable durability and strength, Oxford fabrics remain surprisingly lightweight. This is a significant advantage for tent manufacturing, as it makes the tents easy to transport and set up. The lightweight nature of the fabric ensures that you can carry your tent with ease, whether you’re backpacking to a remote campsite or setting up a base at a music festival. It strikes the perfect balance between sturdiness and portability, making it an excellent choice for outdoor enthusiasts.
Factory Customization Process
Customer Needs Analysis
The process begins with a comprehensive analysis of your specific needs. Our experienced team of experts collaborates with you to understand your project requirements in detail. This includes factors such as the type of product you are manufacturing, the desired fabric specifications, coating preferences (PU or PVC), color choices, and any other unique features you may require.
Custom Design and Sample Production
Once we have a clear understanding of your needs, our design team creates customized design plans. These plans take into account all your requirements and preferences. We then produce sample fabric pieces based on these designs. These samples allow you to physically inspect the fabric and ensure it meets your expectations before we proceed with full-scale production.
Order Planning
After you approve the samples, we move on to the order planning stage. We determine the exact quantities you require and establish a production schedule. Our efficient production planning ensures that you receive your customized Oxford fabric in a timely manner.
Throughout this customization process, open communication with our clients is vital. We keep you informed at every stage, from design to sample approval to final production. This collaborative approach ensures that the Oxford fabric we produce precisely aligns with your requirements, resulting in a product that not only meets but exceeds your expectations.
Production Process
Material Selection and Preparation
Fabric Inspection: Skilled technicians meticulously inspect the fabric rolls for any imperfections or defects. Only the finest quality material passes this stage.
Pre-Treatment: The selected fabric is pre-treated to remove any impurities or contaminants. This process ensures that the fabric is clean and ready to accept the PU or PVC coating.
Printing and Coating
Coating Application: The fabric is passed through machines where the PU or PVC coating is evenly applied to both sides. This coating enhances the fabric’s waterproofing and durability, making it suitable for a wide range of outdoor applications.
Printing: Some applications may require specific designs or patterns on the fabric. Our advanced printing technology ensures that the fabric is customized to meet your unique needs.
Quality Control
In-Process Inspection: Every step of the production process is subject to in-process inspections. This continuous monitoring helps us catch and rectify any issues in real time.
