Expanding further into the Apparel segment, Interloop
established its Knitwear Apparel Business in 2019 as a cut &
sew pilot project, which is now backed by a modern dye house
launched in August 2021. With a dyeing capacity of 10 tons
per day, this dye house brings the fabric dyeing and finishing
operations in-house, while the value added services are
expanded to knitting, printing, and embroidery. By Dec 2021, it
will become a fully vertically integrated Knitwear Apparel facility
equipped with in-house knitting, dyeing, cutting, embellishment,
and sewing capabilities.
Knitwear Apparel has a production capacity of 1.2 million
garments per month with a planned enhancement to 1.8
million pcs by March 2022. The product mix includes T-Shirts,
Innerwear, Polo’s, Sweatshirts, Pants, Fleece Hoodies & Jackets
being exported to eminent brands and retailers in USA, UK,
and EU including Target, Tom Tailor, Carhartt, Ben Sherman,
Katin, Russel Athletic, Penfield Original, Penguin, Elle, and Juicy
