How we do it
Spinning
We bring in cotton, other natural, and man-made fibers from trusted suppliers around the world. The first step in the process of converting fibers into high-grade cloth is to spin the yarn.
First, the fibers are carded, meaning they are cleaned and disentangled using cutting-edge Truetzschler equipment. Next, they are combed, which removes any short fibers. Finally, the fibers are spun, converting the carded and combed fibers into yarn.
Using the latest spinning technologies, our first-rate team applies a variety of techniques – including vortex, open-end, ring, and air-jet – to create the highest-quality yarn.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]

To convert the yarn into cloth, we use state-of-the-art Picanol looms. We are equipped to produce a variety of constructions, including plain weaves, twills, sateens, and baskets – all with customizable widths from 48 to 85 inches.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row parallax=”content-moving” parallax_image=”2394″ css=”.vc_custom_1454016194387{padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 50px !important;background-position: center;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: contain !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1447777726105{padding-top: 80px !important;padding-right: 80px !important;padding-bottom: 80px !important;padding-left: 80px !important;}”][vc_column_text]Inspection
Our quality control processes are second-to-none. Before our fabric leaves the mill, it must pass a rigorous final inspection. This ensures our customers receive top quality products from our plants. The final output is called greige fabric, a cloth suitable for dying, cutting, and conversion into high-performance products.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]
