Difference Between Enzyme Wash and Bio Wash/Polishing:
S/L No. | Subject | Enzyme Wash | Bio Wash/ Polishing |
01 | Definition | To minimize the adverse effect of stone wash, the garments are washed by using enzyme. Enzyme breaks the surface cellulose fibers of the fabric and removes during washing. | The appearance of natural cellulosic material such as cotton can be improved through an enzymatic treatment. This is known as bio wash or bio polishing. |
02 | Removing equipment from the garments | During enzyme wash, certain amount of indigo dye and cellulose fibers from the surface of the fabric are removed. | The bio polishing treatment remove the fuzz and pilling from the fabric surface and gives the fabric a softer and smoother handle, superior color brightness and glossier appearance. |
03 | Size of enzyme molecule | The cellulose enzyme molecule is not so large than bio polishing enzyme molecule. | The cellulose enzyme molecule is too large to penetrate the interior of a cotton fiber. |
04 | Fading of color | Fading due to removal of color with the fibers due to mechanical abrasion takes place. | For bio polishing wash, no color fading is formed. |
05 | Abrasion process | For enzyme wash, mechanical abrasion process is required. | For bio polishing wash, no abrasion process is required. |
06 | Applying stage or process | Enzyme wash can be applied on the particular stage. | Bio polishing can be carried out on cotton as well as viscose, jute, flax, ramie etc. it can be applied at any wet processing stages or in other processes. |

An impressive share! I’ve just forwarded this onto a coworker who was conducting
a little homework on this. And he in fact ordered me breakfast due to the fact that
I stumbled upon it for him… lol. So allow me to reword this….
Thank YOU for the meal!! But yeah, thanks for spending some
time to discuss this matter here on your internet site.
