Image from the internet, must be deleted if infringed     The odour of newly purchased shoes/clothing is a not-so-pleasant experience for consumers, who are inevitably confused as to what causes the odour. Can it be toxic? Is it harmful to humans? Are these smelly products inferior? With these concerns, consumers may make backstage complaints or return the products directly, bringing a bad experience to customers while also causing some damage to their own brand impressions.   So how should footwear factories solve the odour problem to eliminate consumer concerns? Firstly, we need to be clear about where the odour is coming from and how it is assessed/detected before we can get a solution to the odour problem.     Images are from the internet, if infringed, they must be deleted       Where do footwear odours come from?     Image from the internet, if infringed, it must be deleted     Generally speaking, the main sources of odour are as follows:   (1) Mildew. As long as there is a suitable temperature and humidity environment, textile products may exist in the transportation, storage and use process of microbial metabolism.     Image from the network, such as invasion must be deleted       (2) High-boiling petroleum odour. High boiling range petroleum odour comes from some oil agents used in machines including garment production, or the use of additives containing petrol, paraffin etc. as lubricants in the textile production process.     Image from the network, if invaded must be deleted       (3) Fishy smell. The fishy smell is mainly caused by the smell of trimethylamine, a by-product of the baking process after the textiles have been finished with resin.      Image from the Internet, if invaded must be deleted   (4) Aromatic hydrocarbon odour. Aromatic hydrocarbon odour is caused by the use of auxiliaries containing aromatic hydrocarbon compounds during the production, printing and finishing of textiles.      Image from the Internet, if invaded must be deleted     Assessment and testing methods for odour in footwear and clothing   In fact, there are certain national standards and requirements for odour in textile products.   GB 18401-2010 "National Basic Safety Technical Code for Textile Products" requires textile products to be odourless. Odour is detected by the olfactory method, and the operator should be a trained and tested professional.   If the odour is detected as one or more of mould, high boiling range petroleum (e.g. petrol, paraffin), fishy or aromatic hydrocarbon odours, the sample is judged to be "odorous" and the odour category is recorded. Otherwise, the odour is judged to be "no odour".       Images are from the internet and must be deleted if infringed.     Testing method and precautions   (1) Immediately after opening the sample, carry out the test; (2) Test in a clean, odour-free environment; (3) The testers must wash their hands and wear gloves; (4) Two or three persons are required to carry out the test independently, with the final result of the sample being the result of the agreement between the two persons.       How can factories eliminate odours from footwear?   1. Maintain good ventilation in the workshop It is essential to keep the workshop well ventilated, as this will help to dissipate any odours that may be attached to the clothing. However, this practice requires a certain amount of space and time, so if the delivery time is short or there is not enough space to dry clothes, then this method is not available.     Picture from the network, such as invasion must be deleted     2. Use Topone CASANO active carbon treasure (coconut shell carbon deodoriser) Place Topone CASANO active carbon (deodorising and drying) in the bags of clothes, etc. to achieve the purpose of deodorisation.         Images from the internet, if invaded must be deleted     TOPONE Deodorising Carbon is made from coconut shell charcoal. After a series of treatments such as crushing and screening, the coconut shell activated carbon is bright in appearance and has good toughness, wear resistance, pressure resistance and superb adsorption characteristics. It is also oil resistant, non-clumping and not easily decayed.   Coconut shell activated carbon is generally in the form of crushed granules and flakes, while formed activated carbon, such as columnar and spherical activated carbon, is mostly coal-based. Coconut shell activated carbon has a small molecular pore structure. When activated carbon is placed in water, the air expelled when it adsorbs water molecules produces many very small blisters (visible to the naked eye) which float in dense densities on the water surface. Coal-based activated carbon, on the other hand, generally has a macromolecular pore structure and produces relatively large bubble phases.       Attached is the odour removal test of Topone's CASANO active carbon, you are welcome to contact us at any time for more details!

Moisture-proof desiccant generally has quicklime desiccant, silica gel desiccant and montmorillonite desiccant.     Among them, the water absorption ability of quicklime desiccant is realized through chemical reaction, so the water absorption has irreversibility. It can be widely used in food, garment, tea, leather, shoe making, electrical appliances and other industries.     The main raw material of silica gel desiccant is silica gel, which is a kind of silicon oxide with high microporous structure, non-toxic, tasteless, odourless, chemically stable, and has strong water absorption ability. Therefore, it is widely used in the storage and transportation of instruments, meters, equipment and apparatus, leather, bags, shoes, textiles, food and medicine, etc. to control the relative humidity of the environment and prevent the items from getting damp, mould and rust. Montmorillonite desiccant not only has fast adsorption speed and high adsorption capacity, but also is non-toxic, tasteless, non-contact corrosive and non-environmental pollution, especially applied to food packaging, which is harmless to human body. Scope of application: It is widely used in products that cannot be sealed by oil or gas phase, such as: optical instruments, electronic products, medical health care, food packaging and dry air sealing of military products and civil products.

Because the circuit in electronic equipment is easy to be damp and rusty, leading to short circuit phenomenon, so the equipment moisture is still very important, and desiccant is needed in the storage and transportation process.   Not only home appliance equipment, many electronic spare parts need to use desiccant, electronic products circuit board is more afraid of moisture, in the factory will be used to desiccant moisture dehumidification, to avoid equipment circuit moisture short circuit.     How to choose a desiccant? Let Topone tell you!  

  How to distinguish the good and bad of desiccant?   1.Judging from appearance, desiccant of good quality has neat appearance, printing, moderate width of sealing, no clip material and full of raw materials. 2. Judging from the packaging material, the good quality desiccant packaging material is thin and uniform, without spots, smooth surface and high strength, the poor quality package material is uneven in thickness, even individual places can obviously see the raw materials, the surface is rough, there are colour spots, rubbing with hands there are fibres falling off, colour loss is serious, squeezing with hands will crack from the seal, easy to tear. 3. Tear open and check the raw materials, good quality desiccant particles are uniform, hand touch will produce heat, but poor quality desiccant feels less obvious, impurities and particles are more. 4. Moisture absorption rate test, if the condition allows, punish the original weight of desiccant, then place it in a humid environment, naturally absorb moisture for 48 hours and then weigh it. The weight of good quality desiccant will increase obviously, then dry it under 105 degree Celsius and weigh it again after three hours. If it is lower than the original weight, it proves that the desiccant does not meet the industry nominal weight and is of inferior quality.    

Why use TOP-1000 in the transport of products?   In the transportation of products, there may be cases when goods are transported from low temperature areas to high temperature areas, or when the storage environment of goods suddenly changes from cold to hot, water vapour in the air will condense on the surface of the goods or their packaging and form water, a phenomenon also known as “goods sweat”. This is a phenomenon that should not be ignored. So do you know why you need to use Sunflower desiccant? Here is the answer from Topone for you.   I. Why use Top-1000?   (1) Compare with dehumidifier. Sunflower warehouse type desiccant is more economical and applicable compared with dehumidifier which is started for a long time.   (2) Compare with quicklime desiccant. The moisture absorption performance of quicklime desiccant is limited, around 35%, and it will be pulverized after absorbing moisture, which is easy to cause secondary pollution of storage environment. The moisture absorption performance of warehouse type desiccant is good, and the contents liquefy directly lock the moisture in the bag after absorbing moisture, which will not make the medicine liquid seep out. The whole bag can be discarded directly at the end of the use cycle, which is convenient to operate.   (3) Compare with sachet calcium chloride desiccant. The use cycle of sachet calcium chloride desiccant can be maintained for one month at most, and it is more consuming in terms of manpower and material resources to replace it, while the moisture absorption cycle of Top-1000 is longer and can be maintained for 2-3 months.   II. Topone publicity.   In addition to the supply of dry products, Topone can provide a factory inspection service to assist you in identifying potential moisture damage risks within your factory and can issue a step-by-step improvement plan to help you reduce the risk of moisture damage at the source.   ①Topone can assess the risk of mold on a factory-by-factory basis. ② detecting whether there are relatively large mould vulnerabilities in the environment. ③Checking whether the moisture content of packages is within normal values and taking samples back for evaluation. ④assessing whether there are any mould misconceptions in the operation process of the equipment, etc. ⑤ according to the above situation one by one to make the plant's customized mold prevention program.   The above is to introduce the relevant information about why Top-1000 is used in the transportation of products, I hope it can help you, and will continue to update the related consultation about Top-1000, please pay attention and welcome the consultation.

  What is a southerly day?   A southerly day is a unique weather condition in the southern coast, especially in Guangdong and Guangxi, when the temperature warms up and the humidity rises sharply, causing a return to dampness at the turn of winter and spring.   When the weather is 'southerly', the air is nearly saturated with humidity and everywhere is wet: soggy floors, dripping walls, foggy window panes .... It's as if the air is drenched in moisture!   How shoe and clothing companies can cope with the return of southern weather   ① Monitor the roofs of offices, workshops and warehouses for water seepage, leakage and accumulation, and deal with them promptly. ②Check the drainage facilities in the factory to ensure that the drainage equipment is intact. ③Ensure that doors and windows can be fully sealed when closed, and install curtains to block the intrusion of outside water vapour if necessary. ④Keep the factory floor dry and tidy, and do a good job of preventing moisture on the floor; if necessary, use hot salt water to mop the floor to speed up the evaporation of moisture. ⑤ Take appropriate stacking measures according to the nature of the materials; place packages and finished products at least 60cm from the wall, 15cm from the floor and 1m from doors and windows, and use plastic pads or place them on shelves; seal unused packages in good time. ⑥ The placement of raw materials and semi-finished products, in order to avoid being rained on or soaked, the area where the materials are placed should pay attention to the seepage of water from the roof and external walls, and do a good job of checking for water accumulation and cracks, and deal with them in a timely manner.   Dehumidification method   Intermittent ventilation method: open windows and ventilate on sunny days to accelerate the rate of water evaporation; on cloudy days, only downwind doors and windows need to be opened to reduce water vapour into the room; (morning and evening air water are relatively large, it is not recommended to open windows;)   Use of dehumidifiers: dehumidification/moisture control work needs to be carried out promptly if the humidity is above 60%.   Use warehouse desiccant to absorb moisture:   Topone’s TOP-1000 desiccant can absorb moisture in the air and goods in all directions, at least up to 300% of its own weight, absorb moisture for up to 3 months or more, the effect of moisture absorption is obvious, avoiding the outer box of the carton from being damp and soft; you can also use Topone’s CASANO PLUS, dehumidification, antibacterial, double effect control.
