WHAT IS THE TEXTILE INDUSTRY?
The textile industry is an industry that involves sections like research, design,
development, manufacturing, and distribution of textiles, fabrics, and clothing Up until
the revolution of industries, fabrics, and clothing were made in the home by individuals
for personal use. Sometimes they were also resale on a small scale. The Textile industry
was born with the invention of the flying shuttle in 1733, the spinning jenny in 1764,
and the power loom in 1784. Then the fabrics and clothing began to be mass-produced.
When James Watt’s improved steam engine in 1775, Eli Whitney’s cotton gin in 1792,
and Elias Howe’s sewing machine in 1846 all contributed greatly to the success of the
textile industry as well.

DEPARTMENTS AND SECTIONS IN INDUSTRY
In the Textile Manufacturing industry, there are different departments and sections
through which the production process takes from step-by-step processes or methods.
The Few and very most important Departments and sections that take care of production
are the following:
1. INBOUND WAREHOUSE:
Inbound logistics is the process of receiving and storing raw materials and components
for production. It involves managing the flow of goods from suppliers to the company's
warehouses or production facilities. Inbound flow in a warehouse begins when items
arrive, either from external sources or from another company location. This can include
physical and non-inventory items. Inbound warehouses also check activities such as
Sourcing, Purchasing, Transportation, Storage, Delivery of materials, and Tracking
inventory.

company in the industry, in
two words: competitive
sustenance, it runs the risk of
its activities quickly grinding
to a halt and possibly dying
off.
3. KNITTING DEPARTMENT:
Knitting is a method for producing textile fabrics by interlacing yarn loops with loops
of the same or other yarns. It is used to create many types of garments. Knitting may be
done by hand or by machine. Knitting creates stitches: loops of yarn in a row, flat or
round (tubular). There are usually many active stitches on the knitting needle at one
time. Knitted fabric consists of several consecutive rows of connected loops that
intermesh with the next and previous rows. As each row is formed, each newly created
loop is pulled through one or more loops from the prior row and placed on the gaining
needle so that the loops from the prior row can be pulled off the other needle without
unraveling.
6. PACKING DEPARTMENT:
The packing department in the garment industry is responsible for wrapping,
compressing, filling, or creating goods for protection and proper handling. It's the final
step in the production process and prepares the finished product for delivery to the
11
customer. The main function of
packing is to protect finished
garments from damage during
transit. Packing machines
perform this task efficiently
and accurately, streamlining the
packing process so that
factories can accommodate
bulk order requirements.

3. Jute Products
Carpet Backing Cloth:
A carpet is any loom-woven, felted textile or grass floor covering. The global carpet
market for domestic and industrial end-use is dominated by several varieties of carpets
such as Hand Knotted Carpets, Hand Woven Carpets, Tufted carpets, Needle felt
carpets, Flat weave carpets, etc. Primary backing is manufactured mainly from synthetic
fabric. The secondary backing is made of both jute and woven polypropylene. Jute
carpet backing cloth is approximately 104\" wide with gsm varying between 180 and
407. Jute backing has certain limitations such as the potential for browning and rotting.
Thus, the secondary backings used today are majorly woven polypropylene made of a
leno weave of slit film and spun olefin yarns that form a stretchable secondary backing
fabric.

cotton or linen base, which is heavily sized or treated with a stiffening agent like glue
or starch. The sizing process makes buckram stiff and resistant to wear and tear.
Buckram cloth is often used in bookbinding to reinforce and strengthen the covers of
hardcover books. It gives the cover a firm and durable quality, helping the book
maintain its shape over time. In addition to bookbinding, buckram is also used in
millinery (hat-making) to provide structure to hat brims, and in the production of certain
types of clothing where stiffness and structure are desired.

7. Services
Goods Transport Services:
Goods transportation services involve the movement of goods or cargo from one
location to another. These services are crucial for businesses and industries that need to
transport products, materials, or commodities to meet demand or supply chain
requirements. Goods transportation services play a vital role in the global economy,
facilitating trade and commerce. Effective goods transportation services contribute to
the overall efficiency of businesses, reduce lead times, and enable the smooth
functioning of supply chains on a local, regional, or global scale. Various stakeholders,
including shippers, carriers, and logistics providers, collaborate to ensure the seamless
movement of goods.

TYPES OF YARNS
1. Acrylic:
Acrylic refers to a type of plastic derived from acrylic acid or its derivatives. It is known
for its transparency, durability, and versatility. Acrylic is often used as a substitute for
glass in various applications due to its lighter weight, impact resistance, and ability to
be molded into different shapes. Acrylic is valued for its optical clarity, high light
transmission, and weather resistance. It can be colored, molded, cut, and shaped easily,
making it a popular material in a wide range of industries, including art, construction,
automotive, and manufacturing. Additionally, acrylic can be used for various artistic
purposes, such as acrylic painting, where pigments are suspended in an acrylic polymer
emulsion.

3. Cotton:
Cotton is a natural fiber that comes from the seed hairs of the cotton plant
(Gossypium). It is one of the oldest known fibers used by humans and is a key
agricultural crop. Cotton fibers are composed primarily of cellulose, a complex
carbohydrate that provides strength and durability. Cotton is valued for its
softness, breathability, and absorbency. Cotton cultivation involves planting
cotton seeds, and the fibers develop around the seeds as the plant matures. Once
the cotton bolls ripen, they split open, revealing the cotton fibers. These fibers are
then harvested, processed, and spun into yarn or thread, which is used to create a
wide array of cotton products.

recommend checking more recent sources, including yarn manufacturers, retailers, or
relevant industry publications for the latest information.
5. Elastic:
Elastic yarn, also known as stretch yarn or spandex yarn, is a type of synthetic yarn that
can stretch significantly and then return to its original length. This elasticity is attributed
to the inclusion of a synthetic polymer called spandex (also known by the brand name
Lycra or elastane) in the yarn composition. Spandex is a type of polyurethane that can
be stretched up to several times its original length without losing its elasticity. It's
important to note that while spandex is a common material in elastic yarns, there are
other elastic fibers with different properties, such as rubber or other elastomeric
materials. The inclusion of elastic components allows the yarn to provide stretch and
flexibility to the fabrics in which it is used.
20
6. Rubber:
Rubber yarn refers to a type of yarn or thread that incorporates rubber or elastomeric
materials in its composition. The addition of rubber or elastomers imparts stretchability
and elasticity to the yarn, allowing it to stretch and recover its original shape. Rubber
yarns are commonly used in various applications where flexibility and stretch are
desirable. It's worth noting that rubber yarns can be made from various types of
elastomeric materials, not just rubber. Synthetic elastomers like spandex (Lycra or
elastane) are commonly used in elastic yarns due to their excellent stretch and recovery
properties. The choice of elastomeric material can impact the specific characteristics of
the rubber yarn, and the application will determine the appropriate type of yarn to be
used.
21
8. Filament wool:
Filament wool refers to a type of wool yarn composed of continuous strands or filaments
of wool fibers, as opposed to staple fibers. Staple fibers are short fibers that are typically
a few inches in length, while filaments are long, continuous strands. Wool, in general,
is a natural fiber derived from the fleece of sheep or other animals. It is known for its
insulating properties, moisture-wicking ability, and softness. Wool yarns can be
produced using different techniques, and the choice between filament wool and yarn
made from staple fibers depends on the desired characteristics of the final product.

3. GLOBAL RECYCLE STANDARDS
The Global Recycled Standard (GRS) is a voluntary product standard for tracking and
verifying the content of recycled materials in a final product. The standard applies to
the full supply chain and addresses traceability, environmental principles, social
requirements, chemical content and labeling. GRS covers processing, manufacturing,
packaging, labeling, trading and distribution of all products made with a minimum of
20% recycled material. It also sets requirements for third-party certification of recycled
content, chain of custody, social and environmental practices, and chemical restrictions.
Our work focuses on how these resources are farmed, sourced, and extracted from the
earth, plants, and animals. This is known as Tier 4 of the supply chain, and it accounts
for 24% of the industry’s carbon footprint. Our goal is to reduce the emissions that come
from these processes by 45% by 2030. We’ve developed a strategy to help us get there,
and we call it Climate.
27
7. ISO CERTIFIED (9001 – 2015)
ISO 9001:2015 is an international standard that specifies the requirements for a quality
management system (QMS). The International Organization for Standardization (ISO)
published the latest version, ISO 9001:2015, to replace the previous version, ISO
9001:2008. The standard sets out the criteria for a quality management system that
organizations can use to demonstrate their ability to consistently provide products and
services that meet customer and regulatory requirements.
