Abstract
The sewing process is a very important step in terms of fabric quality. Seam strength is affected by fabric-related properties as well as stitch-related parameters, and seam efficiency is found by the ratio of seam strength to fabric tensile strength. Therefore, processes that affect fabric tensile strength also affect seam strength. The effects of finishing and laundering processes on the physical properties of fabrics are extremely important as well as on the fastness properties. While reorganizing finishing processes in order to contribute to sustainability, the effects of the process on the physical properties of the fabrics may help make a decision. In this study, the effects of bleaching, dyeing, finishing and laundering processes on thickness, air permeability, tensile strength and elongation, seam strength and seam efficiency properties have been investigated. According to the results, it is observed that the mentioned processes are effective on the seam efficiency in different ways.
