Effluent Treatment Plants in Textile Industry

The Water (Prevention & Control of Pollution) Act of 1974 provides for the prevention and control of water pollution. Under this Act, no person, without prior consent of Central or State Board, can set up any industry, operation or process, treatment or disposal system, which is likely to discharge any sewage or trade effluent (liquid, gaseous or solid) into a stream, sewer or land. But, what are the technologies available for the industry and at what cost? Team StitchWorld talks to some of the technology suppliers and users to find out.
The cloth that we wear has to pass through various processes and chemical operations like sizing, desizing, scouring, mercerizing, bleaching, dyeing, printing, and finishing in its journey to be finally worn. In the process, large quantities of water mixed with a number of dyes and auxiliary chemicals is consumed resulting in large volumes of contaminated water, a prime pollutant and a major cause of concern. ...

Seamless Knitwear

Conventional sweaters can be produced by sewing together the various parts, knitted separately, such as the front body, back body and sleeves. A new method of knitting is made possible by using the state-of-the-art computerised flat knitting machines, where an entire garment can be created in one piece, straight off the machine, without the need for linking or sewing. Such type of knitwear are generally referred to as ‘complete garments’ or ‘seamless knitwear’. With the technology of ‘Seamless’ Knitwear machines becoming ever more sophisticated and versatile in product designs, Niki Tait takes a look at some of the innovations in the market....

Editor's Note

One way or the other the garment export industry has been at the receiving end over the last two years. It was earlier the hardening of the Rupee and incompatible trends to Indian design capabilities that left the exporters high and dry. Now when the situation seems to be on the verge of improvement with the Indian currency levelling at around Rs 42, prices increasing in China (Jan-April ’08 figures show that China exports are down by around 7%) and the re-entry of India specific trends in ladies wear, spiraling oil prices and rising inflation (11.5%) are staring at our faces. The blow of both factors is going to impact not only daily consumables but also essential facilities like transportation.

Weight is often a handicap for automotives, bicycles, motorcycles, aeronautics and ships: The heavier the body, the more energy is needed to move the vessel. Textiles combined with resins, commonly known as composites, enjoy a good reputation, when light weight, strength and design matter. These are not the cheapest solutions at the moment, but their use can reduce the total costs during the life cycle of the product. Nevertheless, the technology has many applications where its high strength to weight ratio is of importance: aviation, naval industries, cars and bicycles.

The ‘bonding’ or ‘welding’ technology can be claimed to be the biggest revolution in the garment industry, only next to the industrial sewing machines. The bonding application today is not simply related to ‘buying the right machine’ for the ‘right product’, but to a synergy which involves suppliers of fabrics, trimmings and adhesive glue. The range of application of this technology is endless and goes from intimate to active-wear (or so-called functional garments), to denims, shoes, furniture, car seats or even caps, hoods, backpacks and bicycle saddle pads.... .
