EKOLOJİK BEBEK GİYSİLERİNDE DOĞAL LİFLERİN ÖNEMİ

Year 2013, Volume: 1 Issue: 4, 23 - 34, 03.01.2014

Abstract

Bu makalede doğal liflerin kullanımı ve ekolojik bebek giysilerinin önemi incelenmektedir. Bu kapsamda doğal lifler sınıflandırılmış, giysiler üzerindeki teknik özellikleri, olumlu ve olumsuz özellikleri bebek sağlığı açısından değerlendirilmiştir. Makalenin temel soruları, “Bebekler için nasıl daha sağlıklı ve güvenilir giysi üretimi yapılabilir? Bebekler neden ekolojik giysi giymelidirler? Ya da doğal liflerden nasıl fayda sağlanabilir ve alerjik sorunlardan nasıl korunabilir? Pazar açısından tekstil endüstrisi içerisindeki farklı stratejiler neler olabilir?”. Sonuç olarak, bebek giysi markalarından örnekler gösterilmiş ve organik malzemeler ile ilgili öneriler sunulmuştur. Böylece ekolojik doğal lifler bebekler için daha sağlıklı ve pozitif hale dönüşmüştür.

  • THE IMPORTANCE OF NATURAL FIBERS FOR ECOLOGICAL BABY GARMENTS EKOLOJİK BEBEK GİYSİLERİNDE DOĞAL LİFLERİN ÖNEMİ Abstract: In this article, the usage of natural fibers and the importance of ecological baby garments are studied. In this frame, natural fibers are classified and, their technical features on garments and, their positive and negative features are evaluated in terms of health for babies. The main questions of the article are how could more healthy and affordable garments for babies be manufactured? Why should babies wear ecological garments? Or how could we benefit from natural fibers and help protect from allergy problems. What can be the different strategies in textile industry in terms of marketing? In conclusion, some examples of baby garments’ brands are shown and the proposals about organic materials are presented. Thus, ecologic natural fibers have turned out to be healthier and more positive for the babies’ health. Key words: Natural fibers, ecological baby garments, ecological baby garment brands. Introduction Generally, it is known that natural fibers have lots of benefit for the human body. These fibers give major properties to garments such as breathability, durability, sustainability, high absorbency, softness etc… In 1885 nitrate rayon, in 1912 viscose silk were produced as a man-made fiber, in 1938 the first synthetic fiber nylon, later on polyester, orlon and polyolefin were produced. After the World War II, man-made and synthetic fibers were used with natural fibers, nowadays synthetic and man-made fibers are used widely. After the 1980s, organic and ecologic textile production was begun to develop in parallel with the problems of environment and ecology. In the production of natural fibers, pesticides are used in order to eradicate the biologic factors such as bacteria, fungus, insects etc...
  • Also chemical manure is used for fertilizing. Natural fibers are produced without pesticide and chemical manure is called as organic natural fibers, in this way organic cotton, organic linen, organic silk etc… are produced. Various colorants and chemicals are used in textiles, and some of them give harm to some living creatures. “The environmental action which has affected the textile industry began in U.S.A. and expanded all over the world in the last 20 years. As a result, the ‘textile ecology’ becomes pronounced. The products which can be produced used and destroyed without given damage to the human health or without destroying ecological equilibrium are called Eco-textiles”(1). Organic fibers or ecologic textiles are preferred in production of baby sistance and harmful effects of sunlight (4). On the other hand, productivity, time, cost and cultivation are negative features of cotton (5). Bamboo plants can be classified as natural fibers. It contains naturally antibacterial, thermo control and hypoallergenic property (6). It should be preferred for baby garments. Baby Bamboo Company which was established in Great Britain in 2006 aims at giving parents a new environmental friendly choice in the clothing they dress their babies in. “Bamboo is a very practical fiber and has many physical properties inherently so it’s a smarter choice for many families. Bamboo has ‘bamboo Kun’ material that works as antibacterial, anti fungus and, help to make fabric odor free. It has a buttery soft quality and is even softer than silk, cashmere and cotton” (7). In the present day, bamboo is acquired by chemical methods as a synthetic fiber and it is called Bamboo Rayon. If it uses Lyocell fiber it includes a chemical substance which is named N-methyl morphine-N-oxide, it is possible to make it 99% sustainable (8).
  • Mineral Fibers are asbestos and they are used in insulation systems, architecture and ceramic fields because it contains carcinogen (9). The classification of natural fibers is shown in the chart 1 below (10). Natural fibers are appropriate when selecting clothing for people who have a skin problem. And it helps to reduce or protect their skin problem. Most people prefer the smooth and soft fabrics for their skin and want to feel the fabrics. Bamboo, Silk and cotton fabrics give these properties (11). • Kurtoğlu, N., Şenol, D.; 2004, Tekstil ve Ekolojiye Genel Bakış, Karsinojen ve Allerjik Etki Yapabilen Tekstil Kimyasalları.
