Summary
This occupation involves processing textile products by coating or impregnating them with resin to add functions such as water resistance, shape stability, and durability.
Description
Resin Finishing Workers (Textile Manufacturing) apply synthetic resins or urethane resins to textile products through coating or impregnation to impart functions such as water resistance, stain resistance, and shape stability. They handle the entire process from preparing the raw fabric, mixing resins, setting up machines, adjusting processing conditions, to final inspection. They precisely control processing machine temperatures, coating speeds, take-up speeds, etc., and work on process improvements through quality inspections and defect analysis. Since they handle chemicals and dust during work, wearing protective gear and safety and health management are important.
Future Outlook
Although the domestic textile market is shrinking, there is a certain demand for high-function materials and special processing technologies, so the demand for specialized workers who have acquired automation and labor-saving technologies for dedicated machines is expected to be maintained.
