Special agents and softeners for a wide range of finishes, for denim garments and many other kind of fibers
Product List
Softening is an important last step of the apparel finishing process, carried out to improve the overall characteristics of a garment.
Applying a softener changes the hand properties (handle) of the garment, made of denim or other kind of fabrics, making it smooth and giving it a pleasant touch.
This offers an added value that is immediately apparent to the consumer.
Softeners are also used to prevent static cling of garments, and to improve the qualities of the fabric.
Garmon provides a wide range of softeners, with different properties to suit different kinds of finishes and standards.
Some of the advantages of Garmon’s softeners:
- give a soft, pleasant touch to garments, with a hand-feel that varies according to the product used
- have an efficient, uniform penetration and distribution through the fibers
- don’t cause yellowing or shade changes when drying
- offer excellent anti-static properties
- have a good durability to home laundering
Most of Garmon’s softening products are certified, sustainable and included in the ZDHC Gateway, to respect humans and the environment.
