The illustration displays the process of manufacturing fabric from bamboo.
Overall, the 9-step diagram can be divided into 3 main stages: harvesting cultivated bamboo plants, processing bamboo strips to get yarn, and weaving the resultant product to form clothing. Notably, it mainly involves human intervention with minimal natural processes.
The production of fabric from bamboo commences when bamboo is planted during spring, followed by its harvesting by people during autumn. The bamboo plants are then cut into strips with the use of the machinery, which are then crushed to make liquid pulp. Once made, the liquid undergoes a filtering procedure, whereby long fibers are separated from it.
At the sixth step, the fibers are softened by adding water and amine oxide to them. The substance is spun to make yarn, which is woven to produce fabric afterwards. At the final step, the fabric turns into different clothes, ranging from socks to shirts.
