Fabric Dyeing:
In textiles, the dyeing process is done for fiber, yarn and fabric. But particularly fabric dyeing does most of the time in an textile industry. The coloration process of fabric is known as fabric dyeing. Fabric dyeing is a long process the garment dyeing.
Garment Dyeing:
Garment dyeing is a new technology. In this process complete garments are used to the dyeing action. The dyeing process is as like to fabric dyeing. But the main difference of garments dyeing and fabric dyeing is different of dyeing treatment timing.
