Nahar Fabrics, a vertically integrated textile manufacturer of India with operations ranging from spinning through to weaving and processing, is aiming to increase its production capacity with the installation of two Monforts units.
Installed during latter half of 2016 by A.T.E. Enterprises Private Ltd., Monforts’ representative in India, the units will be able to increase Nahar’s fabrics output from 1.5 million metres per month to 2.2 million metres. The two units include: Monforts Montex stenter and a Thermex continuous dyeing range.
“Fabrics No. 1 unit is producing 2.5 million metres per month and No. 2 unit is producing 1.5 million metres, but the capacity of our preparation range is for about 2.2 million metres. We have not been able to run at our full capacity before, as we did not have the dyeing capacity. Installing the Thermex dyeing range and the Montex stenter, we will enable us to reach our full capacity of 2.2 million meters within the next 12 months,” said SS Basu, President of Nahar Fabrics.
