CCI Cotton Conditioners Inc. is focused on improving your bottom line profits throught he application of

By merging 2 old ideas, moisture and the conditioning of fiber, into a simple solution to over 200 users and I will guarantee:

  • A reduction in the loss of good spinable fibers from 0.8% to 1.4% equal to 3.8 (1.74 kg) to 6.72 lbs (3 kg) per every bale processed.
  • An increase in your processing efficiencies producing more pounds of cotton out the door.
  • An improvement in your IPI-Yarn quality impacting weaving efficiencies for you or your customers.


"Never have we experienced a saving in raw material
while improving production and yarn quality."

US Mill Manager

"Since using Gintex we have had consistently more
good days with fewer problems with stickiness,
or problematic cotton."

Using the state-of-the-art PLC controlled application and measuring techniques, CCI's Advanced Conditioning System delivers concentrated Gintex and Humidity when needed at the touch of a button.








Time to quit spinning your wheels
Gintex's conditioning system brings your fiber up to speed by preserving the natural wax-like surface allowing fibers to be processed in a timely, cost efficient manner. Operating your equipment without GintexTM is like taking a step back in time

Improved Cleaning Without The Loss Of Fiber
With the cost of raw materials accounting for 40% to 60% of the yarn costs, it's becoming critically important to maximize your profits through an efficient cleaning process that will remove foreign matter without the loss of valuable fiber.

Gintex Fiber Treatment System reduces fiber to machinery friction eliminating static electricity which impedes the separation between trash and foreign matter. As a result, foreign matter moves to its proper location, while good spinnable fibers continue ending up in the yarn. The standard calculation of cleaning efficiency showed a 12.1% increase in trash removal while a closer examination of the waste collected from the pre-cleaning machinery measured a higher percentage of trash, and cotton dust, while accumulating fewer good spinnable fibers.

A gentler cleaning and processing environment reduces fiber damage (short and frazzled fibers), associated with lint fly and dust deposits. Using dust collection ventilators mounted on top of cards 1 through 8, treated cotton measured an average 28.6% reduction in dust and lint fly. Further studies show collected fibers and dust deposits surrounding the top and bottom roll cylinders measured a 24% reduction by weight. Good spinnable fibers collect in the filter box were reduced by 20 .40% depending on the process.


Department of quality control certified no difference in dye intake between control and treated yarn samples.


Increased Yarn Quality and Improved Production
In today's high speed machinery, frictional values exceed the limit set by the natural wax-like surface located within the cuticle of a fiber.

As a result, fiber damage begins to occur during the harsh ginning environment and continues throughout the pre-cleaning and spinning process.

Gintex Conditioning Agents preserve this wax-like surface by reducing fiber to machinery friction which causes an excessive amount of fiber breakage otherwise known as short fiber. As seen in Mill 1, test results show improved fiber preparation increased yarn quality reducing the number of ends down by 35%.

"With the application of Gintex, we noticed a significant difference is comparative results: twenty-five percent reduction in returnable fiber, as well as a twenty-five percent decrease In dust and lose fibers surrounding the areas significant to the spinning process. Uster analysis recorded a 6 percent increase in yarn strength, 13 percent decrease in elongation, and a 15 percent decrease Is CV percent,"
Control of Quality


Results from Mill 2 show a uniform flow of cotton having reduced static electricity allowed the fiber to pass freely through the carding, combing, roving and spinning process reducing the number of roller laps, increasing production throughout the textile process.

Through improved cleaning and a gentler processing environment, Gintex™ decreases the number of neps throughout the cleaning, carding, combing and spinning process.

A Sticky Situation
With a growing number of cotton bales containing an excessive amount of sugar deposits which are being circulated through our marketing system, problems in spinning will continue to change the way fiber is being processed.

While processing cotton containing an excessive amount of sugar, Gintex allowed my spinning mill to maintain slightly below normal processing rates which otherwise would not have been possible."
Spinning Manager







Gintex's™ conditions both fiber and machinery reducing the buildup of sugar deposits on the rollers and processing machinery. Improved cleaning removes sugar specks prior to processing.

Application Procedure
Gintex™ is applied using an easy-to-install spray atomizing dispensing unit. Controlled by a manual on/off switch, or electric eye, the dispensing unit creates a fog through which the cotton passes. The conditioning agents are dispersed throughout the cotton fiber and the processing machinery. The application point is adjustable to meet the demands of your processing machinery. For further questions, please consult your instruction manual or your local representative.
