WEAVING
The weaving department is equipped with a combination of
Projectile, Rapier, and AirJet looms.
All fabrics are carefully inspected using the American 4-point
system, before being rolled and packed in polythene sheets using
shrink-wrap machines.
Woven fabrics are finished to enhance their physical properties
and dimensional stabilities. In order to obtain these characteristics
the fabric goes through various finishing processes, such as
Singeing, Mercerizing, Coating, Heat Setting and Sanforizing.
