Abstract
Testing plays an important role in maintaining the competitiveness of a company, especially in a highly competitive sector such as the textile industry. Fabric testing can be carried out to measure aspects of the objective quality of a product and to ensure that the product is fit for the purpose intended. It also ensures that a product complies with defined standards. This study is designed in such a way to provide a wealth of information on fabric testing with full body thermal manikin methods. The study has managed to highlight the latest products from a range of companies .
The study has concluded that, thermal manikins are definitely a useful tool to assess and understand the thermal behavior correctly. It may guide garment designers to correct selection of material and could be of much help in reducing occupational accidents happen due to wrong clothing
