Woven Labels

Introduction

Labels are used in every garment industry of Textile and Leather as well as by the tailors to give the identity of the manufacturers and the specifications of the material used. With the increasing awareness of the consumer towards the better quality product and feeling the brand consciousness, this has become a neacessity for the garment manufactuers and the tailors.

Market Potential

There are very few units in the State which are engaged in manufacturing lables. These labels are required by each and every type of garment manufacturing unit as well as leather products. Due to the increase in the production of garments, the demand of labels is also being increased day-by day. The export of readymade garments to different countries has also been increased. Still there is a gap of supply of labels to the manufacturing units. There is good scope if some units come forward for manufacturing of labels.

Basis and Presumptions

1. The scheme has been prepared on the basis of 75% efficiency on single shift considering 25 working days in a month.

2. The rate of 12% interest in the scheme has been worked out on the basis of 12% on an average however, this figure is likely to vary depending on the financial out-lay of the project as well as location of the unit.

3. The break-even point in the scheme has been calculated on the full capacity utilization basis.

4. The cost of machinery and equipment as indicated are approximate which are fuling locally at the time of preparation of the scheme when a tailor cut project profile is prepared, necessary changes are to be made.

5. The rate quoted in respect of salaries and wages for workers and others are the minimum rates in the State, neighbouring states.

6. Margin money required is minimum 30% of the Projected investment.

7. After the initial gestation period of one and half year, it will require approximately 4 years to pay back the loans.

8. Working capital for 3 months has been taken into consideration for smooth running of the project.

Technical Aspects

Process of Manufacture

The main raw material required to manufacture Labels is Polyester Yarn/ Silkyarn/Cotton yarn/Viscose yarn/ Blended yarn of different counts and colours. The yarn normally comes in the market on cones, from these cones warp is made on warping machine. The design which is required to be produced is punched through punching machine on card. Some people use few ends of Jari yarn to enhance beauty of the label. The width of the label depends from one inch to two inches. Accordingly, the warp is made and the yarn is inserted to shuttle for weaving the labels in a continous length. These labels are checked and packed for marketing to the garment manufacturers.

Quality Control and Standards

The Bureau of Indian Standards has not brought out any specifications for labels. Labels are manufactured as per the customer design and selection of material. So far, no unit is adopting any quality standard for this purpose. However, quality of the woven labels depends upon the materials use and the fast colour of the yarn used for manufacturing woven labels.

Pollution Control

No effluents are required, since the process involves weaving of yarn into woven labels. So, there is no requirement of installation of effluent plant.

Energy Conservation

Energy Conservation has become essential in these days. It becomes the individuals duties to realise its necessity.
