Global Laboratory Conference The Digital Future of Textile Testing from Manual Lab to Intelligent Lab

ChiuVention, a leading innovator equipped with Artificial Intelligence, Automation & IoT in textile testing technology, has strengthened its presence in Bangladesh by hosting a technical seminar organized by world-leading European brand BESTSELLER and introducing a range of advanced automated textile testing machines to the country’s textile and apparel industry.

The technical seminar, hosted by ChiuVention Sole Agent Md. Shariful Islam, CEO of SN Apparels, brought together more than 100 testing professionals, quality control specialists, and industry representatives from leading textile factories and testing organizations across Bangladesh.

The event focused on the growing importance of advanced testing technologies in improving textile quality, production efficiency, and compliance with international standards. As Bangladesh continues to compete in the global apparel market, manufacturers are increasingly seeking testing solutions that deliver accurate, repeatable, and faster results.

Test Smart Now -- Said by Tom, the Sourcing Manager of BestSeller

At this conference, BestSeller Global Quality Team members were present from Turkey, India, Cambodia, Denmark & Bangladesh.

At the conference, BestSeller Global Sourcing Manager Mr. Tom was present & he said that usually, through existing instruments, it could be European or American or Chinese; no testing, R&D data is not traceable & recorded fully.

When as a brand, we are thinking to keep all the data in recorded in supply chain, wanted to ensure our quality through smart IoT, Automation & Artificial intelligence based instrument then ChiuVention comes first as pioneer. They convinced us to do the same as we wanted. So I visited them and saw their instruments; they captured all real-time data. Their instruments can connect to the ERP, and all data can be recorded easily. Furthermore, ChiuVention's instrument quality is also excellent. That’s why we organised a global Laboratory conference, inviting our global team and all Bestseller suppliers in Bangladesh to introduce the ChiuVention instruments and their features.

Testing Technologies Support the Bangladesh Industry’s Future Growth

Testing Technologies Support the Bangladesh Industry’s Future Growth

Speaking at the event, Md. Shariful Islam highlighted the importance of adopting modern testing technologies to support the industry’s future growth. “Bangladesh has built a strong position in the global textile and apparel industry, but maintaining that position requires continuous improvement in quality, technology, and testing capabilities. Our objective is to bring advanced and reliable testing solutions closer to the manufacturers so that they can improve accuracy, reduce testing time, and meet the evolving requirements of international buyers.”

He added that automation is becoming increasingly important as textile manufacturers face growing pressure to improve productivity while maintaining consistent quality. “Testing should not be viewed simply as the final checkpoint of production. It is an important part of the entire quality management system. With smart and automated equipment, manufacturers can generate more reliable data, minimize human error, and make faster decisions.”

Technical insights from ChiuVention

Forrest Chiu, President of ChiuVention, shared technical insights and presented the company’s latest testing technologies, then joined an interactive question-and-answer session with industry professionals.

Technical insights from ChiuVention

Speaking about ChiuVention’s approach to the Bangladesh market, Forrest Chiu said: “We are excited to support Bangladesh’s textile industry with smart, automated testing solutions that enhance efficiency and reliability. Bangladesh is an important textile and apparel manufacturing hub, and we believe advanced testing technology can contribute significantly to its continued development.”

He also emphasized the importance of providing practical technical support alongside advanced equipment. “Technology delivers the greatest value when users understand how to operate it effectively and interpret the results correctly. We therefore want to support our customers not only with machines, but also with training, technical knowledge and long-term service.”

Furthermore, ChiuVention becomes the world's first DPP (Digital Product Passport) platform-registered company for DPP regulations.

Live demonstration of advanced testing machines

A live demonstration was a major highlight of the seminar. Participants observed the machines in operation and gained practical insights into their precision, speed, and repeatability. ChiuVention showcased several automated testing solutions designed to address key textile performance and quality requirements.

The SmartShrink Shrinkage Rate Tester measures fabric shrinkage and twist rates after washing, steaming, and dry-cleaning processes within 5 seconds. The system helps manufacturers evaluate dimensional stability and maintain consistency of finished products.

The Smartindale Martindale Abrasion & Pilling Tester evaluates fabric resistance to abrasion and pilling. These properties are critical for assessing the durability and appearance retention of textile products during use & most interestingly, its Lissajous

The AirFicient Air Permeability Tester measures airflow through fabrics, providing important information about fabric performance and suitability for different end-use applications.

Meanwhile, the HydroBurst Bursting Strength Tester evaluates the strength of textile materials under pressure, helping manufacturers assess their durability and performance.

According to ChiuVention, these automated solutions are designed to increase testing productivity, reduce human error, and deliver more consistent results while supporting international testing standards such as ISO, ASTM, and AATCC.

Supporting Bangladesh’s Quality Ambitions

For Bangladesh’s textile and apparel sector, reliable laboratory testing has become increasingly important as international buyers demand greater consistency, durability, safety and regulatory compliance. Automated testing technologies can help manufacturers reduce dependence on manual processes, improve repeatability and accelerate testing cycles. More efficient testing can also allow quality teams to identify potential problems earlier, reducing the risk of defects reaching later stages of production.

Md. Shariful Islam further noted that Bangladesh’s next stage of growth will require greater emphasis on technology-driven quality management. “Bangladesh has already demonstrated its manufacturing capability to the world. The next challenge is to strengthen our technological and testing capabilities. By adopting smart testing systems, our factories can improve efficiency, strengthen quality assurance and build greater confidence among global buyers.”

Supporting Bangladesh’s Quality Ambitions

Expanding technical support in Bangladesh

ChiuVention plans to further expand its presence in Bangladesh by offering technical training, after-sales support and customized solutions for local textile manufacturers. Through SN Apparels, its local sole agent, the company aims to give manufacturers greater access to advanced testing equipment, technical expertise, and support.

The seminar reflected the industry’s growing interest in automation and smart quality-control technologies. As Bangladesh’s textile and apparel manufacturers continue to move towards higher-value products, greater efficiency and stricter international compliance, advanced testing systems are expected to become an increasingly important part of the industry’s technology landscape.

ChiuVention’s entry and expansion in the Bangladesh market therefore comes at a significant time, offering manufacturers new tools to strengthen quality assurance while supporting the country’s ambition to remain competitive in the global textile and apparel industry.

Please note that at the conference, the BESTSELLER Global Team and all their suppliers- Intertek, BV, SGS, TUV, Hohenstein, and GMS Testing Laboratories were present.
