Quality Standards and Control
We attach great importance to quality standards and therefore conduct regular training sessions for our machine operators, supervisors and managers. We also put our procedures in writing and follow customers’ inspection guidelines.



For quality control, we use a system that ensures consistently high quality merchandise for our customers. Yarn is continuously monitored to ensure that it is according to specifications required for knitted fabrics especially with regards to spirality. Only medium and long staple yarns are used with the correct twist.

 

Knitting is continuously monitored to ensure correct stitch lengths – and fabric flaws are kept to a minimum through statistical quality control.

 

At dyeing, each process from dyeing, squeezing, drying and calendaring set standards which are continuously monitored. Shrinkage, spirality, colourfastness and colour matching is done on every batch that is produced. At manufacturing all fabrics are inspected and tested, quality control starts from cutting during production and finally after the garments have been produced and everything has been defined and we work on AQL standards which are internationally recognized.
