Swimsuit Testing

A swimsuit is an item of clothing designed to be worn by people engaging in a water-based activity or water sports, such as swimming, diving and surfing, or sun-orientated activities, such as sun bathing. Different types may be worn by men, women, and children. Swimsuits are made from a variety of materials, from polyester to nylon and blends of elastane.

To ensure high quality and safety of swimsuit, manufacturers have to make sure all products comply to existing and relevant standards. By producing swimsuit in accordance with national and international regulations, potential risks can be minimized and the interest of both textile manufacturers and consumers can be protected.

STEMart provides comprehensive swimsuit testing services to provide inspection reports that meet relevant regulations and international standards, thus proving the quality and safety of swimsuit products.

Test Items

• Resilience testing

The swimsuit elasticity test mainly focuses on the stretchability and resilience of the swimsuit during use and whether it can maintain the original shape of the swimsuit.

• UV protection test

Swimwear will be exposed to strong sunlight when used, so the ability of swimwear to resist ultraviolet rays is an important indicator to ensure that people's skin is protected from sun damage.

• Color fastness test

Swimwear needs to be in constant contact with water during use, so it is very necessary to test the color fastness of the swimsuit to prevent the swimsuit from fading after washing and affecting the overall wearing effect.

• Chlorine resistance test

Swimwear is often in contact with chlorine during use, so it is particularly important to test the swimsuit material's ability to withstand chlorine concentration.

• Comfort test

The comfort test of swimwear is mainly based on the comfort level of the swimwear when used, including consideration of factors such as the softness, moisture absorption, and breathability of the material.
