effectiveness is largely determined by how well it is able to access and manage its

environment. Institutional Training is important to learn corporate practices in line with the

ABOUT THE INDUSTRY

Textile Industry in India is the second largest employment generator after agriculture. It holds

significant status in India as it provides one of the most fundamental necessities of the people.

Textile industry was one of the earliest industries to come into existence in India and it

accounts for more than 30% of the total exports. In fact Indian textile industry is the second

largest in the world, second only to China. Textile Industry is unique in the terms that it is an

independent industry, from the basic requirement of raw materials to the final products, with

huge value-addition at every stage of processing. Textile industry in India has vast potential

for creation of employment opportunities in the agricultural, industrial, organised and

decentralised sectors & rural and urban areas, particularly for women and the disadvantaged.

Indian textile industry is constituted of the following segments: Readymade Garments,

Cotton Textiles including Handlooms, Man-made Textiles, Silk Textiles, Woollen Textiles,

Handicrafts, Coir, and Jute. Till the year 1985, development of textile sector in India took

place in terms of general policies. In 1985, for the first time the importance of textile sector

was recognized and a separate policy statement was announced with regard to development

of textile sector. In the year 2000, National Textile Policy was announced. Its main objective

was: to provide cloth of acceptable quality at reasonable prices for the vast majority of the

population of the country, to increasingly contribute to the provision of sustainable

employment and the economic growth of the nation; and to compete with confidence for an

increasing share of the global market. The policy also aimed at achieving the target of textile

MARKET PERFORMANCE

The performance apparel market is one that has been a healthy segment of the larger textile

complex. This market has exhibited many signs of growth due to an increase in public

awareness of healthier lifestyles which comes with an up-tick in the number of consumers

who exercise regularly. Adding to the increase in exercise is the increase in the efforts of the

industry to provide the apparel the consumer wants. This is taking form in technological and

stylistic advancements in the clothing being used as compared to the traditional clothing for

exercise in years past. As performance increases for the products, the competition grows to

become the best in order to capture the growing market which is accustomed to features in

addition to function.

The best way to look at the landscapes of this market is to have a look at the money being

spent on this product in the us. The size of the us market for this product category will give

some indication as to how much of an impact this product category has on the apparel and

textile markets in general. One source of such information is the book Household Garments,

which is a reference source that provides information on the amount of money the average

American consumer is spending on all types of products.

ESTIMATIONS OF THE EARNINGS

The Indian textile industry has an overwhelming presence in economic life of the country.

As per the fy09s data, it constitutes 14% on industrial production, 4% to gdp and 17% to

countrys export earnings, which states that the textiles industry is second largest

employment provider after agriculture.

The last two years have been a very difficult period for the textile industry, primarily because

of exchange fluctuations and economic slowdown. Now after a bad patch of 2 years, the

textiles industry of India is at the threshold of a recovery.

With a gradual recovery in the global economy, there are indications that textile industry can

return to the growth track. However, this will be contingent upon a helpful policy framework

being provided for the sector.

PRODUCT & SERVICE

T-SHIRT

UK consumers buy around eight T-shirts per person each year. The T-shirt used in our

analysis is made of single jersey combed cotton. We assume that the cotton is harvested,

ginned and Spun into yarn in the USA. The yarn is shipped to China for knitting, dyeing,

cutting and sewing, and then shipped to the UK for retail, use and disposal.

Cotton farming can be risky since cotton is vulnerable to disease and growth is

dependent on uncontrollable factors like the weather. In the USA, this has led to investment

in advanced biotechnologies, including genetically modified (GM) seeds, intensive use of

chemicals and a high degree of Automation.

This has allowed USA cotton farmers to overcome the disadvantage of high labor costs

and at present the USA is the largest Producer of cotton in the world. To give an idea of the

quantity of cotton produced in the USA yearly, if all cotton produced in he USA annually

was used in making a single product, it would create more than three billion pairs of jeansor more than 13 billion Mens dress shirts. The productivity data for cotton harvesting and

spinning are estimated below

PANTS

No other company offers a chef pant with this much style and comfort. Our exclusive

yarn dyed chef pants are so soft and easy to work in, theyre quickly becoming the number

one choice in kitchens across the country

Now that we offer them in more colors and nine exciting new patterns, the number of

different looks you can create is endless. And since we manufacture every garment we sell;

only Uncommon Threads can deliver the quality and selection you want at an unbeatable

LEARNING AND FINDING FROM THE COMPANY

KNITWEAR & GARMENTS

The knitwear industry has made tremendous strides within the state and has emerged

as a major export earner. For instance, Tirupur itself accounts for nearly 70% of the knitwear

exports of about Rs.3621 crores in 1996-97. This sector accounts for nearly 13% of the textile

production of the country and is reserved for the small scale sector. Against 2696 million

Esq. produced in 1989-90 by this sector, the production in 1996-97 was about 5102 million

Esq. nearly 16% of the country's fabric production. There are nearly 7000 hosiery units in the

country.

Government will encourage the growth of this industry by providing necessary physical

infrastructure. Government will also encourage setting up of spinning units dedicated to the

production of hosiery T-Shirt.

As a forward linkage to the power loom sector Government will set up Garment Export

Parks(s) in the state to encourage the power loom sector to produce fabrics to meet the

requirements of garment exporters.

Production of blended power loom fabrics in fibres other than cotton will be encouraged by

funding design and development efforts by recognized institutions, particularly, silk fabrics

for export.

Production of industrial fabrics including filter fabrics, canvas geo-textiles, non-wovens, etc,.

Will also be encouraged by funding design and development efforts by recognized

DYEING DIVISION

Immature cotton or waxes present in the yarn will prevent the dyes to stick to the cloth.

Therefore, they have to undergo acid wash i.e. washing the cloth with acid. After Acid wash

the pores in the cloth will be clear and that when the cloth is dyed the dyes stick properly in

the cloth so that the color does not fade.

Dyeing is done by adding normal salt and that sodium Chloride acts as a catalyst and then

soda Ash (Sodium Carbonate (Na Co)) and the Dyes. Red, Blue, Yellow, Orange- thesesdyes are mixed to give different shades, except Black. The colors are mixed percentage-wise.

Dyeing is done for two different cloths polyester and cotton double dyeing. The machine

used for dyeing FONGS. At a time, 750kgs of cloth can be dyed in the machine

Cutting is done both manually and also by machine. Recently a new machine named

LECTRA, SPERADER, cutter is being imported from jermane,which costs 2.5 crore.

This machine does the cutting of 1.20 lakhs pieces per day.

KNITTING DIVISIONS

After weaving, the most prevalent method of fabric construction is knitting. Its popularity has

grown tremendously over the recent years. Today, knitting is a very big industry which has

two main divisions.

One division manufactures knitted goods for apparel production, sewing centers, consumers

and others. The other division manufactures finished apparel such as hosiery, sweaters and

underwear.

The knitted fabric has the advantage of stretch ability which provides fit and comfort. It also

gives warmth. At the same time, they are porous and provide breathing comfort. It is light in

weight and wrinkle- resistant. However, certain specialized techniques like Pak- nit or

Permasized have to be used so that it may not shrink too much. Also, care should be taken so

that not a single loop breaks. If even one loop breaks, a hole is made and it starts running.

This disadvantage can be eliminated by variation in the stitch that protects the fabric from

traveling. The kind and quality of the needle also affect the quality of the knitted fabric.

Different kinds of needles are used in knitting latch needle, spring- beard needle, compound

needle etc.

THEORETICAL CONCEPTS AND REAL PRACTICES

T-shirts

T-shirts per person each year. The T-shirt used in our analysis is made of single

jersey combed cotton. We assume that the cotton is harvested, ginned and Spun into yarn in

the USA. The yarn is shipped to China for knitting, dyeing, cutting and sewing, and then

shipped to the UK for retail, use and disposal.

Cotton farming can be risky since cotton is vulnerable to disease and growth is

dependent on uncontrollable factors like the weather. In the USA, this has led to investment

in advanced biotechnologies, including genetically modified (GM) seeds, intensive use of

chemicals and a high degree of Automation.
