Cotton lint: quality and commercial specifications.
Cotton lint buyers may need to consider fibre properties, packaging, quantity, origin and delivery requirements.
Relevant parameters may include fibre length, micronaire, strength, uniformity, colour grade, moisture and trash content. Which parameters matter most depends on the buyer’s spinning process and finished yarn requirements. Ask suppliers for the exact grade basis, test method, test date and supporting records. Commercial discussions should also define bale weights, tolerances, loading point, quantity, shipment window and the documents supplied with the lot.
Key takeaway: Do not compare offers based on a grade label alone. Confirm the specification basis and what documents support the quoted product.
