Pressing:

It is the process of application of heat, pressure and moisture to shape or crease garments or garment components into the geometric forms proposed by the designer. The pressing process influences the final garment appearance and hence the garment appeal. Finishing and pressing machines contour the semi finished garment panels as well as finished garments by bringing down the fibers in the fabric to an elastic state and then deforming and setting them.

Purpose of pressing:

To flatten out the undesirable wrinkles, creases and crush marks.

To make creases where the garment design needs it.

To mould the garment to the silhouette of the body.

To prepare garments for further sewing.

To refinish the garment after completion of the production process.

Basic components of pressing:

The main elements of the pressing process are heat, pressure and moisture, which deform fibres, yarns and fabrics to accomplish the required effect.
