We were the first to introduce Synthetic Fibres in India way back in the 50s
Fibre is considered the raw material in the textile industry, used to spin into yarn or processed into various textiles such as woven fabric, knitted fabric, lace, felt, and non-woven materials through appropriate interlacing methods. This process is crucial for fabric companies in India that rely on high-quality fibres to produce diverse textile products for both domestic and international markets. By optimizing the use of fibres, these companies play a significant role in the global textile supply chain.
Fibre are broadly classified into 2 categories –
- Natural Fibre

Man-made fibres are spun and woven into a huge number of consumer and industrial products, including garments such as shirts, scarves, and hosiery; home furnishing such as upholstery, carpets etc.
Man Made Fibre are further divided into 2 category –
- Cellulosic
- Synthetic
