Arrival and preparation
1. The bolts are collected daily by our forwarding agents from companies that have chosen Tessil Controll System and their suppliers.
2. On the arrival of the truck, the single bolts are divided according to the client and “cleaned” from the packaging as well as any eventual impurities, which has deposited during transportation.
Colour inspection
1. A piece of fabric is removed for an initial colour inspection and for colour variations from the salvage to the centre.
2. The fabric which is taken from the bolt is compared to the sample given by the client to Tessil Controll System and approved.
3. In case of slight differences in the colour tones (nuances), continuity cards are created, which the manufacturers can use to create uniform batches.
Fault inspection
The whole lot then passes to the actual control affected by specialised personnel. The experience of these professional figures, allows the immediate identification of various types of defects, like:
- holes
- knots
- mending
- impurities
- patches or strikethrough
- defective threads
Other parameters are verified, such as:
- weight
- length
- height
- texture and appearance
- grain lines
- regularity in checks
- regularity in colour
- beginning – finish of the bolt (head – tail)
- resistance of colour during manual handling
The dimensional test on the stability of the bolt can be personalized and conducted according to European regulations.
All defects are immediately identified by various methods, at the client’s request (stickers, thread, chalk, indelible chalk). Besides a printed and digital Inspection Report is produced depicting all the imperfections, making it easy to identify, allowing the producer to take any necessary decisions on the fabric.

Steaming
According to the agreements between Tessil Controll System and the manufacturers, the fabrics can be subjected to an intense steaming treatment, followed by a twenty four hour rest. Steaming is a necessary process to highlight hidden problems, giving greater safety in the fabrics’ dimensions and uniformity for the production of suits with regular sizes.
Post-steaming analysis
During the rewinding on tubes or other support, the fabrics are inspected again, to make sure that the steaming process has given the desired result and that the original aspect has not been modified. Further checks include:
- length
- height
- grain lines
- weight
Labels are applied on the selvage with progressive numbers, to facilitate consultation during inventories. At the end if this operation, the Tessil Controll System technicians attach to every bolt a computerized report, which shows all the information gathered during the test.
Washing and drying test
On request by client, controls are affected using methods indicated by the client (washing time/drying, temperature, detergents to be used).
