Cotton is a natural fibre, and has inherent variability in fibre length, texture and therefore, properties. Variations are evident within an isolated sample of a particular variant, between samples of the same bale and between samples from different bales. The micronaire specifically is critical in predicting dye-ability, fibre neps and the final appearance of the yarn and the fabric. We test raw cotton for quality of fibre length, strength, micronaire, colour grade, short fibre content, trash distribution and several other factors.

At ATIRA, our team delivers high quality test results for raw cotton with accurate parameters assuring the quality and the specific outcome for the product. You can expect precise results with quick turnaround without any compromise on the accuracy to meet urgent requirements. Our high quality HVI cotton testing benefits cotton industry including both Indian and international cotton merchants, ginners, spinners, textile mills and commodity exchange bodies like the MCX and public sector undertakings like the CCI.
