In a significant step toward sustainable manufacturing, Hoorain Hi-Tech Fabrics Ltd. (Hoorain HTF), a leading woven textile producer under Jamuna Group, has signed an agreement to install a 13.5 MWp solar power system at its production facilities.
Rozalin Islam, Director of Jamuna Group and a Director of the Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA), signed the agreement on behalf of the company. The project aims to integrate renewable energy into Hoorain HTF’s operations, reducing carbon emissions, improving energy efficiency and setting a new benchmark for large-scale solar adoption in Bangladesh’s textile industry.
Once operational, the solar installation is expected to supply a substantial portion of the factory’s energy demand, thereby cutting dependency on fossil fuels. The company says the move will not only shrink its environmental footprint but also positively impact surrounding communities through cleaner energy practices.
Founded in 2018 and beginning commercial operations in 2019, Hoorain HTF has rapidly grown into one of Southeast Asia’s largest textile mills. The 100% export-oriented company has a monthly production capacity of around nine million yards of fabric, including solid-dyed, printed and yarn-dyed varieties. It operates 920 looms and advanced facilities for weaving, dyeing, printing, including rotary, flatbed and digital methods and finishing.
Its product portfolio spans an extensive range of woven fabrics in materials such as cotton, polyester, viscose, Tencel, modal, linen, bamboo and eco-friendly blends like recycled polyester, Ecovero viscose and recycled nylon. These fabrics, offered in textures such as poplin, twill, satin, canvas, dobby, oxford, ripstop and seersucker, are used for tops, bottoms, outerwear and other fashion applications.
The company operates a 100% biological effluent treatment plant (ETP) and has adopted eco-friendly production processes to align with global environmental standards. Its collections are regularly showcased at international exhibitions such as Texworld in Paris and New York, catering to buyers from Europe, the USA, Scandinavia, Australia and across Asia.
Jamuna Group expressed optimism that the solar power initiative would accelerate the shift toward greener manufacturing in Bangladesh’s apparel sector. “This project reinforces our commitment to sustainable growth and environmental stewardship,” the group said in a statement.
With the new solar project, Hoorain HTF is positioning itself not only as a competitive force in the global textile market but also as a pioneer in integrating renewable energy into large-scale fabric production in Bangladesh.
