Overview
EN ISO 105-C07:2001 is a European standard aligned with the international ISO 105-C07:1999 published by CEN. This standard specifies a reliable test method for assessing the colour fastness to wet scrubbing of pigment printed textiles. It is essential for evaluating the durability and quality of pigment dyed or printed fabrics when subjected to wet abrasive conditions, such as cleaning or wear.
The method applies to a wide variety of pigment printed textiles and plays a critical role in quality control and product development in the textile industry. It is not intended for loose fibres but rather finished textile products or constructed yarn specimens.
Key Topics
- Scope and Purpose: Determines the resistance of pigment printed textiles to colour change caused by wet scrubbing, simulating real-life abrasive cleaning conditions.
- Test Method: Involves immersing the test specimen in a specified soap or detergent solution, scrubbing it with a standard brush under controlled force and cycles, then rinsing and drying.
- Specimen Preparation: Textile samples, at least 80 mm by 250 mm, are tested parallel to the warp or manufacturing direction. Yarn specimens can be knitted or wound suitably to simulate fabric conditions.
- Apparatus: Includes a wet scrubbing device with specified force and stroke, a specially designed polyamide-bristled brush, and defined chemical reagents such as soap without optical brightener, sodium perborate, and reference detergents.
- Assessment: Changes in colour are evaluated using the ISO grey scale, enabling standardized comparison of colour fastness before and after the test.
- Test Variables: The test conditions allow for different solution temperatures (27 °C up to 70 °C) and varying scrubbing cycles (25, 50, or 100) to simulate different degrees of wear.
Applications
- Textile Quality Control: Ensures pigment printed textiles meet durability requirements under wet abrasive conditions, supporting fabric selection and process improvements.
- Product Development: Guides formulation of pigment prints that maintain colour consistency after cleaning or abrasion.
- Compliance Testing: Manufacturers and suppliers can verify compliance with national and international textile performance criteria.
- Consumer Safety and Satisfaction: Helps minimize colour fading and bleeding during product use and maintenance, enhancing customer confidence.
- Industrial Laundering: Evaluates pigment print performance relevant to industrial washing and maintenance processes, informing care label instructions.
Related Standards
EN ISO 105-C07:2001 complements a series of colour fastness testing standards under ISO 105 which cover various conditions:
- ISO 105-A01: General principles of testing colour fastness.
- ISO 105-A02: Grey scale for assessing colour change.
- ISO 105-C01: Colour fastness to washing – Test 1.
- ISO 105-C06: Colour fastness to domestic and commercial laundering.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
International Standard ISO 105-C07 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 38, Textiles, Subcommittee
SC 1, Tests for coloured textiles and colorants.
ISO 105 was previously published in thirteen “parts”, each designated by a letter (e.g. “Part A”), with publication
dates between 1978 and 1985. Each part contained a series of “sections”, each designated by the respective part
letter and by a two-digit serial number (e.g. “Section A01”). These sections are now being republished as separate
documents, themselves designated “parts” but retaining their earlier alphanumeric designations. A complete list of
