The drapability of fabrics is one of the most critical performance indicators for the appearance, wearing comfort and quality perception of textile products. TS 9693 Fabric Drape Test provides scientific data on how a fabric takes shape with its own weight and to what extent it exhibits a natural, flowing or stiff form. Our laboratory is a solution partner preferred by manufacturers, importers and retailers with its CE compliant and internationally accredited infrastructure.
What is TS 9693 Fabric Drapability Test?
TS 9693 is a physical test method that aims to measure the bending and fluidity behavior of the fabric. This test determines how the fabric behaves during use, its posture, how it is shaped on the model and how it will be perceived by the consumer.
Why is the TS 9693 Test Necessary?
Drape is one of the most important quality indicators affecting purchasing decisions in the apparel industry. Especially in dresses, shirts, shawls, curtains, workwear and technical textiles, the posture of the product directly affects the brand perception.
Advantages of Fabric Stiffness Testing
Taking into account user intent (product performance verification, quality documentation, tender specification requirements), this test offers the following benefits
- CE Compliant Quality Assurance: For brands that want to certify product performance within the CE framework, the TS 9693 test is a technical verification. This allows you to take part in EU markets with confidence.
- Compliance with CE Approved Production Standards: TS ISO 4604 results provide concrete data on the bending resistance of the product. This data plays a critical role in improving production recipes.
- Compliance with International Customer Expectations: For exporting companies, bulk reports are among the basic quality documents demanded by global brands.

For Which Sectors Is TS 9693 Test Suitable?
TS 9693 Fabric Drape test is a critical quality verification tool for all stakeholders of the textile supply chain, including manufacturers, retailers and importers. Manufacturers gain a significant advantage in both design and R&D processes, as they can evaluate with scientific data how the fabric stands on the model and how it exhibits fluidity during use. For retailers, drapability testing is an objective reference point for collection evaluation and brand quality standardization, which strengthens both customer satisfaction and brand consistency. Importers, on the other hand, can safely compare the quality of fabrics from different suppliers and minimize the risk of incompatibility. For all these groups, TS 9693 testing provides an important decision support mechanism for product reliability, performance verification and commercial competitiveness.
