Hundreds of the world’s leading dyes houses choose the natific Color Accreditation Program (CAP) to cut out the common process of lab dip submission and to achieve straight to production privileges. natific randomly selects a mill within the CAP program to feature with a short interview. We also take this opportunity to welcome new and returning clients.
SAY HI TO BESTEX ENTERPRISE
The mill Bestex Enterprise Co., Ltd. located in Taoyuan, Taiwan, have over 20 years of experience in dyeing and finishing textiles with synthetic and natural fibers and their blends. 2015 was the year the mill decided to become a CAP member.
“As a CAP mill, you have access to a simple but powerful
platform to monitor your bulk production. The color
communication between mill and buyer is now much easier.”
/ Bestex Enterprise Co., Ltd.
Let’s see what Bestex Enterprise say about the CAP program.
natific: How did you first hear about the CAP program and what were your initial thoughts?
Bestex: We learnt about this program from our brand customer Under Armour and decided to join as soon as we knew that the program not only will provide a great tool for us to monitor our production but also help us to speed up our production.
natific: What are your thoughts today about the program?
Bestex: It significantly improved our color development time as well as our delivery. The program also allows us to find our areas of insufficiencies and guides us how to improve on them.
The biggest advantages with the CAP in general is that it simplifies the color development and bulk production process while being more accurate and effective.
natific: Do you use the ColorWarehouse internally to monitor production accuracy and precision?
Bestex: We use ColorWarehouse to monitor our bulk consistency also internally. The plot available in the system makes it easy to find outliers to quickly improve the bulk production.
A plot from the ColorWarehouse where all submitted colors except one is accurate and precise
natific: Master Digital Standards (qtx-files) are used within the CAP program, does this make it simpler for your dye-house?
Bestex: Using the qtx-file as the standard eliminates the concern of the possibility of physical standard being different from one to another (from aging or mishandling). It makes it much simpler!
natific: Do you save time in the development of new colors with the CAP?
Bestex: Yes! It saves about 1–2 weeks of color approval time. The color development becomes easier than ever. Once the digital color standard (qtx-file) is received, we can start developing a dye recipe from our recipe prediction software. Usually, it takes no more than 2 dyeing’s to achieve a matching lab dip.
natific: How about your lab-to-bulk production?
Bestex: We accomplished straight-to-production privileges after our first on-site CAP accreditation. The privileges to move straight to production without sending any lab dip and first of production sample makes it easier for us to plan the production because we do not need to wait and hear feedback from 1st bulk lot approval.
natific: Would you like to share an insight of your dye-kitchen facility and computerized processes?
Bestex: Of course. Our dye kitchen is fully automated and monitored closely. All data is stored in computer and used in junction with ColorWarehouse to monitor bulk production.
And for example, our wet on wet processing is also computerized. All chemical going into the process is weighed and dispensed by computer. The Stenter profiling system is used to monitor the temperature and residual moisture on the fabric widthwise.
natific: Thank you Bestex!
Bestex: Thank you!

DID YOU KNOW? – ABOUT THE CAP PROGRAM
The CAP program was developed as a collaborative project between natific and retailers and has evolved to be the most comprehensive color accreditation program globally. The program is designed to evaluate the maturity and capability of a mill, determining if a mill will be able to produce any given color to a specific tolerance. It is intended to assess, educate and help mills move towards best practice through production analysis and expert recommendations.
The ColorWarehouse is a system used within the CAP program. The system allows mills to analyze production data based on color, fabric and dyeing machine. ColorWarehouse provides mills, vendors and retailers/brands with insight into the mills daily production.
