As part of business expansion, Interloop is entering into the Denim Apparel Segment and has envisioned a production facility which will minimise its environmental impact, prioritise worker well-being and will maintain a very high standard for operational and cost efficiency, ensuring that Interloop continues to serve its customers effectively. The production facility will be LEED Platinum Certified and will be the most technologically advanced and sustainable denim apparel production facility in this part of the world, underpinning Interloop’s Mission. The plant started production in Q3, 2019 and has been conceived with a planned output exceeding one million garments per month.

The Denim project is planned at 40,000 units production/day, split into two phases of 20,000 each. The third phase is planned to set up a fabric manufacturing facility.
