How do you ensure the highest quality, durability, and feel in your textiles? Welcome to visit Elastocon and our partner Roaches International at Borås Textile Days 4–5 November 2026. We will be on-site to demonstrate how modern testing equipment and objective measurement technology can take your product development and quality control to the next level.
Elastocon is the proud Nordic representative for Roaches International – a UK based manufacturer and distributor of quality control equipment, laboratory dyeing systems, and consumables for the textile industry.
We will be presenting Roaches’ innovative solutions designed to streamline your laboratory testing and deliver precise, objective data. Some examples are:
- Martindale AXYZ maximises your textile abrasion and pilling tests, and run your tests for longer, with less interruptions. See the Martindale AXYZ in action at our exhibition stand.
- Sentire provides an objective and universal language for fabric handle, empowering consistent quality control through precise and reliable material specifications.
- Crocktec is a crockmeter which is used to determine colour fastness to rubbing (crocking). Crocktec is the smart choice for textile labs with limited workspace, as it is over 50 % smaller and lighter than other crocking testers.
- Opti-Pill is a tester for accurate determination of surface fuzzing, snagging and pilling test methods, using a rotating pilling box apparatus, in accordance with ISO 12945-1.
- Durawash and Washtec offer two solutions for testing colour fastness to washing.
In addition to our quality control range, we also offer a comprehensive selection of laboratory dyeing equipment and certified consumables.
Stop by our exhibition stand at Borås Textile Days EXPO to discuss your testing requirements, explore our solutions, and discover how we can help optimize your testing processes.
