What is EN ISO 105-K12:2012?

EN ISO 105-K12:2012 is a technical standard developed by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) and International Organization for Standardization (ISO). It provides guidelines and specifications for testing the colorfastness of textiles to rubbing.

The Importance of Colorfastness Testing

Colorfastness refers to the ability of a textile material to retain its original color when subjected to various external factors such as rubbing, washing, light exposure, and perspiration. Testing colorfastness is crucial in determining the quality and durability of a textile product.

The Methodology of EN ISO 105-K12:2012

EN ISO 105-K12:2012 outlines a comprehensive methodology for conducting colorfastness testing using a crockmeter. A crockmeter is a machine that rubs a specified area of the test fabric against a standardized white or colored cloth with a specified amount of pressure and rubbing strokes. The resulting color transfer is then evaluated based on a set of criteria.

Significance and Application of EN ISO 105-K12:2012

EN ISO 105-K12:2012 is widely recognized and utilized by textile manufacturers, regulatory bodies, and testing laboratories globally. It ensures consistent and reliable assessment of colorfastness, enabling accurate comparisons of different materials and compliance with international quality standards.
