Technical Aspects
Process of Manufacture
In the preparatory stage, interlock knitted polyester fabrics are procured from the markets and these rolls are spread on the cutting table for fashioning and cutting in accordance with the design prior to passing it to the tailoring section where they are stitched with the help of flat lock sewing machines to get the desired shape and style. Thereafer, it is passed to the quality checking section to check extra protruding threads. Snap fastners are attached wherever necessary.
All the garments obtained from sewing section are charged into washing machine containing mild detergents and washed for 2 hours in order to remove dirt and stains acquired during the manufacturing process. After washing, the garments are hydroextracted to remove excess water and after this, they further charged in tumbler dryer for drying to a required extent. Final checking is done before pressing and packing by visualising the garments on the checking table so that any objectionable faults in the piece may be removed. The individual pieces are pressed by steam presses to remove wrinkle marks present in the pieces. All the checked garments are finally packed as per regular practice in the trade.
