ST. LOUIS, Missouri USA — May , 2024 — In a significant step towards a more sustainable future for the textile industry, Pincroft, a leading textile dyeing, printing and finishing company, has bolstered its efforts to achieve efficient and environmentally responsible operations by adopting Baldwin Technology's innovative TexCoat™ G4 system.
As a premier provider of high-performance finishing solutions for workwear and military fabrics, Pincroft holds itself to the highest quality expectations and compliance standards. The U.K-based company's decision to invest in cutting-edge precision spray technology demonstrates its commitment to delivering superior products while minimizing its environmental footprint.
Since Installing Baldwin's Texcoat G4 System In September 2022, Pincroft Has Achieved Remarkable Results:
· 20% reduction in finishing chemistry usage
· 50% decrease in water consumption
· 50% increase in productivity
· 90% energy savings compared to traditional pad finishing
The TexCoat G4 system's precision spray application replaces the traditional "dip and squeeze" method, evenly applying the exact amount of water or chemistries required to one or both sides of the fabric. This highly efficient and eco-friendly approach enables a wide range of fabric finishes, including vector protection, antimicrobial, crease resistance, water repellency, stain and soil release, and flame retardancy.
"The acquisition of this new precision spray technology represents our commitment to the environment, customers, and to the investment in our facilities to stay at the forefront of the latest technologies the market has to offer," said Ian Rawcliffe, Pincroft's Technical Manager. "With the use of the TexCoat G4, customers can rest assured their fabrics are being finished to the highest of standards while decreasing their impact on the environment."
Baldwin Technology's VP of Global Business Development, Rick Stanford, commended Pincroft for their forward-thinking approach: "Pincroft are known to seek out the latest in cutting edge technology and their evaluation and implementation of TexCoat G4 was no different. We are pleased that Pincroft, one of the top manufacturers of high-performance technical fabrics, puts their trust in us to assist in lowering their carbon footprint while meeting the performance requirements of their most demanding clients."
As the textile industry faces increasing pressure to address sustainability challenges, Pincroft's adoption of the TexCoat G4 system sets a powerful example for other companies looking to innovate and reduce their environmental impact.
By embracing advanced technologies and collaborating with industry leaders like Baldwin Technology, Pincroft is paving the way for a more sustainable future in textile finishing.
