When you do not know a thing about the issue at stake...

...perhaps it's better to remain silent.

Some of you know, others don't - and that's fine - but my main field of expertise is labor law.

I just read this in anger and disbelief:

Look, lady. I don't care who the hell you are, what you do for a living or why you felt entitled to answer those insistent questions on your side of the fandom. I suppose you are North American and have no idea of how things work on this side of the pond. It is fine: I might know what a Congress filibuster is, for example, but I'd be severely unable to judge the finer points of competence sharing between Fed and state level.

The difference between you and me?

I keep my mouth shut and/or do my own research before opening it in public.

Have you no shame to write things like: 'It was discovered clothing factories in Bulgaria and Portugal made it and how workers were exploited, mostly women, because these factories were in special economic zones in these countries exempt from EU employee rights and regulations.'

HOW DARE YOU? What strange form of illiterate entitlement possessed you to utter such things with confidence, comfortably hidden behind a passive voice ('it was discovered')?

Portugal joined the EU in 1986. Bulgaria (and my country) joined the EU in 2007. I have given 5 relentless years of my life to make this collective political project a reality, along with hundreds of other people my age who chose to come back home from the West and put their skills to good use for their country. In doing so, I rejected more than 10 excellent corporate job offers in France and China. To see you come along and write such enormities is like having you spit in my face.

Article 4 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (aka The Treaty of Rome) is formal and clear, as far as competence sharing between the EU and its Member States goes (the UK was still, back then, a full member of the EU - it quit on February 1st 2020):

That means that ALL the EU regulations are being integrated into the national legislation of the Member States. This is not a copy/paste process, however. And because it is a shared competence area, the Member States have a larger margin of appreciation into making the EU rules a part of their own. While exceptions or delays in this process can be and are negotiated, the core principles are NEVER touched.

Read it one hundred times, madam, maybe you'll learn something today:

THERE ARE NO SPECIAL ECONOMIC ZONES IN THE EUROPEAN UNION. THE WHOLE FUCKING EUROPEAN UNION IS A SPECIAL ECONOMIC ZONE, THIS IS WHY IT IS CALLED THE SINGLE MARKET.

What the fuck do you think we are, Guangzhou? We'd wish, seeing the growth statistics!

Now, for the textile industry sector and particularly with regard to the Bulgarian market, a case very similar to my own country. Starting around 1965, many big European textile players realized the competitive advantage of using the lower paid, readily available Eastern European workforce. In order to be able to do business with all those dour Communist regimes, the solution was simple and easy to find: toll manufacturing.

It worked (and still does!) like this:

The foreign partner brings its own designs, textiles and know-how into the mix - or more simply put, it outsources all these activities. The locals transform it into the finished product, using their own workforce. The result is then re-exported to the foreign partner, who labels it and sells it. In doing so, he has the legal obligation to include provenance on the label ('made in Romania', 'made in Indonesia', 'made in Bulgaria' - you name it).

The reason you might find less and less of those 'made in ' labels nowadays at Primark and more and more at Barbour, Moncler and the such is the constant raise of the workers' wages in Eastern Europe since 1990 (things happened there, in 1989, maybe you remember?). We are not competitive anymore for midrange prêt-à-porter - China (Shein, anyone?), Cambodia and Mexico do come to mind as better suppliers. To speak about 'exploited female labourers in rickety old factories' is an insult and a lie. They weren't exploited back in the Eighties, as they are not now (workers in those factories were and still are easily paid about 50% more than all the rest) and the factories being modernized and constantly updated was always a mandatory clause in any contract of the sort. Normal people in our countries rarely or ever saw those clothes. You had to either be lucky enough for a semi-confidential store release or bribe someone working there and willing to take the risk, in order to be able to buy the rejected models on the local market.

If I understood correctly, you place this critical episode at the launch of the limited SRH & Barbour collection, for the fall of 2018. How convenient for you, who (I am told by trusted people) were one of the most vocal critics of S during Hawaii 2.0!

And as far as Barbour goes, it never pretended to manufacture everything in the UK only:

This information is absolutely true. You can read the whole statement, signed in October 2017 by one of their Directors, Ian Sime, here: https://www.barbour.com/us/media/wysiwyg/PDF/Ethical_Statement_October_2017.pdf

And a snapshot for you:

Oh, and: SEDEX is a behemoth in its world, with more than 75.000 companies joining as a member (https://www.sedex.com/become-a-member/meet-our-customers/). Big corporations like TESCO, Dupont, Nestle, Sainsbury's or Unilever included.

I am not Bulgarian, but I know all of this way better than you'll probably ever do. The same type of contracts were common all over Eastern Europe: Romania, Poland, the GDR (that's East Berlin and co, for you) and even the Soviet Union. I am also sure your Portuguese readers will be thrilled to see themselves qualified by a patronizing North American as labor exploiters living in a third-world country with rickety factories.

You people have no shame and never did. But you just proved with trooping colors you also have no culture and no integrity. More reasons to not regret my unapologetic fandom choice.

I expect an angry and very, very vulgar answer to this, even if I chose to not include your name/handle. The stench of your irrelevance crossed an ocean.

[balkanradfem]

I keep thinking everyone knows the exact same information as me, but since I'm about to make more posts about textiles and clothing, as I'm reading the book on them, I'm going to write down some basic information, just in case it's not very common, because a lot of this I only gathered recently. If I get something wrong please correct me in a kind way!

So where does the clothing come from, and how do we make it? During most of the history, textiles were made by women, from natural materials; flax, wool, cotton, silk, jute. Recently we started using more synthetic materials, like acrylic, polyester, nylon, spandex. If you want to make clothing from the natural materials, like wool or cotton, they first need to be processed, cleaned and combed, then spun into yarn, or thread. Spinning is the process where women manage to pull a thin part of the material and spin the fibres into one consistent, firm thread. It's super impressive to watch them do it and I have no idea how they manage to make it consistent, I've not yet tried to do it myself.

Once the thread is done, it can be made into a textile by knitting, crochet, or weaving. There are also other more complex, decorative methods, like tatting or lacing.

For knitting, you need two needles, or a special circular needle, or, there are also knitting machines, which you can use to make woolen fabric. For weaving, you need a loom. For crochet, you need a crochet hook. While knitting and weaving can be done by a machine, crochet can only be done by hand. Woven fabrics are firm, sturdy, durable, and not stretchy, while knit fabric is the most stretchy and soft. I'm not sure about crochet since I only have one crochet garment, but mine is very sturdy!

All of these methods were historically done by women; families were able to grow flax plants close to their homes, and women would then create linens, woven textiles made from processed flax, which was used to make sheets and clothing. Linen was specifically useful in keeping people clean, since it's very good at absorbing moisture. Used as an under-garment, it was capable of absorbing sweat, and protecting the outer layers, which were not washed. Experiments have shown that frequently changing into clean linen was more effective at keeping clean than showering and then putting on the same clothing back on.

Women's ability to create clothing was sadly exploited, and women were even banned to sell it commercially, or from competing at the commercial market, but their husbands were allowed to profit off of their craft.

In the USA, cotton was the most produced material, however for this too people were enslaved and exploited; cotton took human labour to grow, harvest and process, it also required a lot of water, and caused destruction of environment, because of the chemicals used in it's growth, and the unsustainability of monocrops.

Creating a piece of clothing out of textiles, or sewing, is a process that still cannot be completely automated; while you can use a sewing machine, you cannot make a machine that would produce a whole garment out of textiles. No mass-produced piece of clothing was sewn by a machine, it always has to be made by a human being. This is why a lot of the sewing labour is currently outsourced to third-world countries and companies use modern slavery in order to create fast fashion; there is no machine that can do it, so by the rules of capitalism, the companies are trying to get that labour as cheap as possible, often at the cost of human lives.

We didn't use to have as many garments as we do today, in the 18th century people would have two outfits, one for normal days of the week, and one for Sunday. The clothing they owned was usually made to fit them exactly, either by a female member of the family, or a seamstress, and these garments were made to last them for decades. As clothing became cheaper to buy than to make at home, and more of it became mass-produced, people started acquiring more of it, but also using it for lesser period of time. This would eventually grow into a bigger problem, due to the amount of chemicals and labour used to grow, process, dye and sew the garments, and the amount of waste we were starting to accumulate.

Introduction of synthetic materials, like acrylic, made the yarn and the textiles much cheaper, however it lacks the important properties natural materials have. Do you ever notice how synthetic garments sometimes continue smelling bad even after you wash them? That is because they'll absorb sweat, but become hydrophobic when wet, meaning they will take in your sweat, but refuse to let it go once they're in the water. This means that the longer you have them, the worst their stink becomes. This, of course, can be hidden by the generous use of scented fabric softener, but it won't exactly make the garment clean. This information I've learned recently, but it helped me identify what were the most synthetic pieces of clothing I had. Acrylic clothing had also proven to shed 1.5 more microplastics than any other polyester when put into the washing machine.

Having our clothing grown, processed, spun, woven/knit, and then sewn far out of sight, it's possible to lose the sight of where it came from, or how it's made. Only by trying to do it yourself, or learning closely about the process can one learn to appreciate what a monumental task it is, to create fabric, or a garment. Other than the synthetic textiles, of which I still know very little of, all of the natural clothing is a product of plants and animals, it takes land, farming, agriculture and water to grow the plants, raise the animals, and then labour to process and spin the fibres. It's also something people used to do in their gardens, inside of their homes, something that was normal for women to do, and to trade for anything else they needed, saving them from having to work for wages. Women making fabric was always to the benefit of everyone around them, while m*n taking over the industry and doing it commercially, ultimately brought slave labour to a lot of people, cheap and low quality garments to the select few, and money to the hands of the exploiters.

Being curious about clothing and what becomes of it, is a big benefit to the environment and the future of the earth! Knowing what the textile industry is doing, and how does it affect the planet, can be a great motivator to try and sew, or upcycle and mend clothing, or create garments. It's presented to us as something women were forced to do in the past, and it's connected to 'feminine hobbies', but in actuality, it is power to create something humans cannot do without. Women in the past used it's power too, whenever they could. And we are the only ones who ever used this power for good.

Melamine Market is Expected to Grow at a CAGR of 3.87% during the forecast period until 2032

The melamine market has witnessed remarkable growth and diversification in recent years, propelled by a myriad of factors shaping the global landscape.

Furthermore, the textiles industry presents lucrative opportunities for the melamine market, particularly in the manufacturing of melamine-formaldehyde resins for textile finishing and coating applications. Melamine resins impart crease resistance, wrinkle resistance, and color fastness to textiles, thereby enhancing their durability, appearance, and performance. With the growing demand for high-quality textiles, home furnishings, and apparel, the demand for melamine-based textile additives is expected to increase.

Additionally, the packaging industry represents a significant market for melamine, driven by the rising demand for lightweight, durable, and eco-friendly packaging materials. Melamine-based products, such as melamine-formaldehyde resins and melamine foam packaging, offer excellent properties such as thermal insulation, moisture resistance, and shock absorption, making them ideal for packaging applications such as food packaging, electronics packaging, and industrial packaging. As consumers increasingly prioritize sustainability, recyclability, and environmental friendliness, the demand for melamine-based packaging solutions is expected to grow.

Despite the promising outlook, the melamine market faces challenges and constraints, including fluctuating raw material prices, regulatory compliance issues, and environmental concerns related to formaldehyde emissions. However, industry stakeholders are actively addressing these challenges through initiatives focused on product innovation, sustainability, and regulatory compliance. Moreover, strategic partnerships, mergers, and acquisitions are driving consolidation and market expansion in the melamine industry.

In conclusion, the melamine market is poised for continued growth and innovation, driven by its versatile applications, inherent properties, and compatibility with evolving market trends.

Whilst there have been indications of a Bronze Age settlement here on the location where Augsburg now stands it was, as we previously mentioned, officially founded as a settlement by the Romans in 15BC. Nero Claudius Drusus was the first Roman military leader to launch a campaign across the Rhine in an effort to conquer the tribes of Germania, and it was here that he maintained a “base of operations” in the area.  Interesting to note is that the town played a significant role in the defense of the region against invading forces over the years also, such as the Hungarians, who were decisively defeated by King Otto I in 955.  Augsburg's status as an imperial free city, granted in 1276, likely contributed to its growth and prosperity, as did its membership in the Swabian League in 1331. Below are all the most significant dates in the history of the City of Augsburg. - 15 BC: Augsburg was founded by the Romans. - 5th century: Augsburg becomes part of the Holy Roman Empire. - 11th century: Augsburg becomes an important center of trade and commerce. - 13th century: Augsburg becomes a free imperial city. - 16th century: Augsburg is home to a number of important cultural and intellectual figures, including the theologian and monk St. Ulrich and the Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer. - 19th century: Augsburg became an important center of the textile industry in Germany. - 1945: Augsburg is heavily bombed during World War II and is subsequently rebuilt. - 2011: The historic center of Augsburg is added to the UNESCO World Heritage List.

This Romanesque-style cathedral was built in the 11th century and is home to a number of important artworks and historical artifacts. The architecture is stunning and is not immediately apparent from the outside which only adds to the ambience of the building. The crypts are also interesting, and it seems like every century and era has left its mark on the building. Don’t miss the 11th-12th Century stained glass windows. There are 5 and each one depicts a prophet. Location: Frauentorstraße 1, 86152 Augsburg, Germany Website: bistum-augsburg.de 8. Augsburg Zoo While it may not be as well-known as the zoos in Munich and Nuremberg, this zoo in southern Germany is definitely on par with the best in the region. The highlight has to be the wonderful Bird House, but there are plenty of other excellent exhibits as well, such as the mixed enclosure for Hamadryas Baboons and the Forest Buffalo enclosure. There is a new Elephant house and the compact size of the ZOO means you don’t have to spend all day here. Excellently laid out kids love visiting the Augsburg Zoo.

Perlach Tower  The Perlach Tower (Perlachturm) is a historic bell tower building in front of the church of St. Peter am Perlach right on the main town square and is definitely worth a visit. The climb up the circular staircase to the top presents a short revitalising workout, but the views of the city from the bell tower at the top are excellent. You will need to pay the "ticket taker" at the top who charges a small fee, but it's worth it for the experience. We highly recommend checking out the Perlach Tower for its unique history and stunning views as the best place to get a true orientation of the city. NOTE: This attraction was closed for renovation the last time we visited Augsburg Location: Rathausplatz, 86159 Augsburg, Germany Website: augsburg-tourismus.de/de/sehenswuerdigkeiten/augsburg-innenstadt 13.

The printing transfer paper market is segmented based on type, application, and region. Types of transfer paper typically include **sublimation transfer paper, inkjet transfer paper, laser transfer paper, and electrostatic transfer paper. Each type has unique properties, making it suitable for specific applications and substrates. For instance, sublimation transfer paper is widely used in the textile industry because it allows high-quality, vibrant prints to penetrate polyester fabrics. On the other hand, inkjet transfer paper is common in printing T-shirts, ceramics, and even home décor.

Key Market Drivers

1. Growing Demand for Customization and Personalization With an increased focus on personal branding and individual expression, the demand for customized apparel, accessories, and décor has significantly contributed to the growth of the transfer paper market. Consumers are increasingly seeking personalized products, from t-shirts and mugs to phone cases, driving the need for high-quality transfer paper that can deliver sharp, durable designs.

2. Technological Advancements in Printing Techniques Advancements in printing technologies, such as digital printing and sublimation printing, have made it easier to produce intricate and high-resolution designs. These advancements support efficient and quick production, catering to the demands of both high-volume industrial needs and small-scale businesses. Transfer papers, in turn, have evolved to support different printers, allowing smoother transitions across various media.

3. Sustainability Initiatives As environmental concerns become a priority, manufacturers are introducing **eco-friendly transfer papers** and **non-toxic inks**. Eco-friendly transfer papers, made from biodegradable or recyclable materials, are increasingly sought after, especially in regions where regulations and consumer preferences favor sustainable products. This shift toward greener practices has created opportunities for companies that can innovate in this direction.

Major Applications and End-Use Industries

1. Textile and Apparel The textile industry is the largest consumer of transfer paper, driven by the demand for customized clothing. Sublimation transfer paper, which is highly effective on polyester fabrics, has proven especially popular for athletic wear, corporate uniforms, and fashion apparel. Direct-to-garment (DTG) printing has also expanded the range of fabrics that can be customized.

2. Ceramics and Hard Surfaces Printing on ceramics, such as mugs, tiles, and plates, is another growing application area. Ceramic transfer papers, often using a heat transfer process, allow designs to be transferred permanently, creating a popular option for gift items and promotional products.

3. Home Décor and Interior Design Transfer paper is also finding applications in home décor, where custom-printed curtains, wallpapers, and cushion covers are becoming popular. As consumer tastes evolve, demand for these customized interior solutions is expected to grow, spurring further innovation in transfer paper types and applications.

Regional Market Insights

The Asia-Pacific region is currently the largest market for printing transfer paper, primarily due to the vast textile and apparel industries in countries like China, India, and Vietnam. The region benefits from an expansive manufacturing base, skilled labor, and low production costs, making it a preferred location for transfer paper production and utilization. North America and Europe also hold significant market shares, largely driven by technological advancements, higher adoption of digital printing, and consumer inclination toward personalized products.

Challenges and Market Constraints

Despite its growth, the printing transfer paper market faces certain challenges. **Environmental concerns** about non-biodegradable transfer papers and waste management issues in printing operations are increasingly impacting consumer choices and regulatory policies. Additionally, the **volatility in raw material prices** can influence production costs, thereby affecting profit margins for transfer paper manufacturers. There is also intense competition from direct digital printing, which bypasses the need for transfer paper in some applications, potentially affecting market demand in the long term.

Future Outlook

The printing transfer paper market is expected to continue its upward trajectory, driven by the rapid expansion of the customization trend across consumer goods and industrial sectors. Technological innovations will be critical for future growth, especially in improving print quality, reducing environmental impact, and enhancing compatibility with various printing techniques. Companies focusing on research and development to create versatile, eco-friendly, and high-quality transfer papers are well-positioned to capitalize on the market’s evolving demands.

As sustainability becomes a more prominent consideration, the future of the printing transfer paper market lies in balancing quality with eco-friendliness**.
