The diagram illustrates the linear process involved in the production of bamboo fabric, starting from planting bamboo and ending with the final clothing products.
Overall, the procedure consists of nine distinct stages, beginning with the cultivation of bamboo in spring and culminating in the manufacturing and distribution of finished garments.
In the first stage, bamboo plants are grown during the spring season. By autumn, they reach maturity and are harvested. The harvested bamboo is then cut into thin strips, which are subsequently crushed in order to create a liquid pulp.
Once the pulp is produced, it undergoes a filtration process to separate long fibres from the liquid. These fibres are then softened by adding water and amine oxide, which prepares the material for spinning. In the following stage, the soft fibres are spun into yarn.
The resulting yarn is then woven into fabric, which is used to produce clothing items such as T-shirts and socks. These finished garments are ultimately sent to shops for sale.
