PRODUCT OVERVIEW

  1. Cotton Interlining
    The use of cotton fusible interlinings, reinforced with materials like High Density Polyethylene, Low Density Polyethylene, and
    Polyamide, adds structure and durability to garment components such as collars, cuffs, and pocket flaps. While 100% cotton
    interlinings are ideal for stiffening collars and retaining shape, lightweight options with a softer touch provide comfort and
    flexibility. Recent innovations have also introduced natural fiber interlinings like wool and silk, offering a balance between
    structural integrity and a softer feel through advanced weaving techniques. Overall, interlining choice depends on factors like
    structural needs, aesthetics, and wearer comfort, driving ongoing developments in materials and techniques.

  2. Water Jet Woven Fusible Interlining
    Fusible interlinings, whether woven, knitted, or non-woven, provide reinforcement and stability to fabric panels when bonded
    mechanically or thermally. They’re widely used in the sewing industry due to their affordability and ease of mass production.
    However, their downside lies in reduced flexibility and comfort, as well as limited stretch during movement. Additionally, fused
    interlinings can impede breathability and give garments a stiff appearance, affecting details like lapel rolls negatively. Moreover,
    they tend to be less durable over time, often developing bubbles on the lapels and jacket body after a few washes.

  3. Hair Canvas
    Hair cloth, traditionally made from horsehair or camel hair, provides stiffness and structure to garments. Hair canvas interfacing,
    typically made from goat hair, rayon, or wool, is used in tailoring jackets and coats for crisp detail and firm control. It is
    sandwiched between the outer fabric and lining, serving as the garment’s “skeleton” to maintain shape and support. Hand-sewn
    to the fabric, it offers flexibility and comfort, adapting to movement and minimizing pressure points, resulting in longer-lasting
    garments. Half canvas construction, extending from the padded shoulder to halfway down the jacket body, offers a balance
    between structure and cost, providing support and better fitting than non-canvas options while being lighter and less structured
    than full canvas.

  4. Waist Band Interlining
    The process of making waistband interlinings involves ultrasonically cutting a fabric with warp and fill yarns of a thermoplastic
    material, with an acrylic finish to facilitate cutting and prevent brittleness in fused fibers. The resulting material has a smooth
    edge formed from fused fill fibers and possibly one warp thread. This interlining is used in waistband assemblies for pants and
    slacks. We offer both standard and custom cut rolls for shirt plackets, waistbands, and cuffs, using advanced machinery for
    precision cutting. Our ability to quickly supply customized rolls is a significant advantage. Additionally, we provide a range of
    ready-to-use collars and cuffs in various patterns, cut using the latest technology by our process partners.

  5. Traffeta Suit Interlining
    Taffeta is a luxurious fabric commonly used as lining material in high-end apparel such as trousers, suits, wedding dresses, and
    corsets, as well as for theatrical costumes and fancy dress. Its smooth, crisp texture helps garments maintain shape and
    provides insulation. Typically made of silk, taffeta boasts a lustrous sheen and is woven in a plain weave pattern. It is favored
    for evening gowns, jackets, skirts, blouses, coats, and interior decorations, including curtains. Piece-dyed taffeta, often
    polyester, offers durability and washability without fading or fraying, making it suitable for linings in various garments, especially
    jackets and coats.

  6. Tricot Interlining
    Interlining fabric serves as a foundational element in garment construction, offering body, structure, and durability. Fusible
    interfacing, applied with heat, is a common choice for this purpose. Tricot fabric, recognized for its fine wales and crosswise
    ribs, is a versatile option often used in lingerie and laminated fabrics. Tricot interfacing provides support and shape without
    adding bulk, with its smooth non-fusible side ensuring comfort against the skin. While it is commonly used to stabilize both
    knit and woven fabrics, it is important to test on scraps before application. Tricot fabric is utilized in a variety of garments,
    including sleepwear and dresses, and is also found in various textiles such as nets, laces, bedspreads, and carpets, often
    featuring intricate lace-like patterns.

  7. Double Tape & Web Interlining
    4 Freudenberg webs offer lightweight bonding for modern outer fabric combinations, easily applied with an iron. Double-Sided
    , Fusing Tape, also known as Rivil Civil Tape or Fabric Fusible Tape, simplifies hemming by creating clean hems without the need
    for sewing. Made of viscose, this adhesive tape bonds fabric pieces effectively, but caution is advised for very smooth or sticky
    fabrics and direct contact with high-heat irons to prevent melting.

  8. Circular Interlining
    Circular knitting is a method used to produce fabrics like T-shirt material and interlinings in a continuous tube shape. Fabrics
    made through circular knitting are light, elastic, and thin, with a gauge ranging from 12 to 22 determining thickness. These fabrics
    offer breathability and good drape. Circular knitting machines are known for their high-speed production, making them cost effective for bulk manufacturing. Circular knit interlinings, whether fusible or not, possess stretch and recovery properties, making
    them suitable for knit garments with stretchable areas. Advances in technology have led to innovations like seamless garment
    construction.

  9. Non Woven Interlining
    Non-woven fabrics are polymer-based textiles created by bonding fibers without weaving. They offer high strength and are costeffective. These fabrics, made from materials like polypropylene and polyester, are used in a variety of applications, including
    disposable surgical gowns, filters, face masks, and wet wipes. They are also popular for tea and coffee bags due to their
    strength when wet and lack of taste or odor. Non-wovens find use in protective clothing, garment linings, weddings, shoe linings,
    and synthetic leather fabrics, providing versatility and convenience.

Recent Fund raise by the company

Why would someone want to invest in a 110 cr mcap company with no visible MOAT and a hard core commodity business

What is their market strategy?

Textile is a capex heavy business and you require constant capex or your business will be another sick unit like the 100’s we already have in this sector

Looks like a gamble with little to no valuation comfort at all

The company looks interesting but the balance sheet has some concerning elements. There is huge receivables build up. Operating cash flows over the last 4 years is poor. Inventory and receivables makes up over 80% of assets on the balance sheet as of September 2024. Growing without debt or dilution may be difficult with so much cash stuck in working capital. A lot will depend on improving of operating cash flows going forward.

This is good for them.

Backward integration, import substitution, should help them reduce costs.
