It is obvious that globalization has changed the trade channels in the textile industry significantly in the past 20 years. In many cases, personal relationships between suppliers and buyers often don’t longer exist. Products such as yarn and fabric are often spot-market internet purchases – so quality cannot be trusted to a firm handshake or an experienced touch of the material.

Missing specifications based on objective values led to a serious deterioration in the quality of garments or other textile goods. For many retailers, there has been a severe impact on operating profits, because of claims. Leading retailers therefore are making huge efforts to avoid such issues. In many cases, they are able to achieve lower quality costs by insisting on clear specifications for yarns and fabrics. Uster Statistics are regularly used by buyers as the platform for product specifications in commercial transactions.
 
Globalization on one hand and increasing cost pressures on the other – these are the key factors in ensuring that Uster Statistics both today and in the future, are still relevant to the worldwide textile industry. Thanks to USTER®STATISTICS, yarn producers can benchmark and to optimize their production processes and objectively prove the quality of what they are selling. For buyers, USTER®STATISTICS provide full transparency on what they are buying and a clear indication of what to expect in the finished fabric appearance.
 
Retailers can take advantage of the Uster Statistics to optimize costs in their supply chain by defining their specific needs according to the quoted values. USTER®STATISTICS allow all users to speak ‘the global language of quality’ – needing no translation and easily understood by all.
 
That is why the new Uster Statistics 2013 will be especially appreciated by producers and buyers as a common quality language. The updated statistics – featuring the new classification standards such as outliers classified by the recently introduced Uster Statistics 5 – will be launched at the end of this year. The 2013 edition will remain the essential tool for comparing key parameters along the entire value chain, from raw fiber through sliver and roving to the final yarn and beyond, continuing to offer weavers, knitters, yarn traders and retailers the essential framework to specify and obtain the quality they need.
