Filter tools:

GSM Calculator

Convert fabric sample weight and size into GSM and verify supplier claims before booking.

Core QC calculator
Fabric lab check

Enter sample weight and dimensions and the calculator returns the GSM instantly. Ideal for checking knit and woven qualities, validating lab reports, and aligning consumption sheets with real fabric weight.

Inputs: sample weight, length, width Output: GSM value

Fabric Roll and Garment Weight Calculator

Estimate roll weight, garment weight, and total fabric area using GSM, fabric width, and length.

GSM based planning
Planning tool

This combined calculator helps you move from GSM to real kilograms and pieces per roll. Use it to estimate how many garments can be cut from a roll, plan shipments, and align roll data with cutting requirements.

Inputs: GSM, width, roll or panel length Outputs: roll weight, garment weight, pieces per kg

Garment Weight and Fabric Requirement Calculator

Plan fabric requirement per garment and GSM based garment weight for tees, hoodies, leggings, and more.

Costing assistant
New

Enter GSM, fabric width, total panel length, and extra percentage for ribs or wastage to calculate fabric usage and finished garment weight. Perfect for costing sheets, fabric booking, and bulk cutting checks.

Inputs: GSM, width, panel length, extra percent Outputs: fabric requirement per garment, weight per piece

Shrinkage and Relaxation Calculator

Convert before and after measurements into percentage shrinkage and adjust patterns or bookings.

Finishing and lab support
Finishing

Input original and washed measurements to calculate warp and weft shrinkage, growth, and spirality. Use the results to correct markers, confirm shrinkage allowances, and communicate clear requirements to mills and sewing lines.

Inputs: before and after measurements Outputs: percentage shrinkage, growth, spirality

More Rectexya tools coming soon

Yield planners, printing cost estimators, and care label helpers are under development.

Roadmap preview
Coming soon

New textile tools will focus on yield calculations for markers, dye and print cost estimates, and practical helpers for care labels and washing instructions. This card stays as your roadmap preview so you can track what is planned next.

Focus: factory planning, sourcing, sustainability Update: planned in future releases

How to integrate these tools into your workflow

Rectexya calculators are designed to sit beside your lab reports, tech packs, and costing sheets. Use them daily for reality checks and quick what if scenarios.

Start with the GSM Calculator to confirm fabric weight, then move to the Garment Weight and Fabric Requirement Calculator to plan fabric usage per style. Use the Fabric Roll and Garment Weight Calculator to connect rolls to pieces, and the Shrinkage and Relaxation Calculator to protect pattern accuracy and post wash performance.

Together these tools reduce guesswork, support better negotiations with suppliers, and help factories avoid fabric shortages, unexpected weight changes, and cutting room surprises.

Rectexya Tools are provided for educational and planning purposes. Always confirm final numbers against your lab data and buyer standards.
