Project Concept Project Overview The proposed project involves setting up of a facility to manufacture High Value Garments, namely, Ready Made Garments, Handlooms, etc. at Surat Apparel Park, Surat The proposed unit will use sophisticated machinery, raw materials and value added services such as finishing, printing, closure, embroidery and special processes to produce garments of high value. Total cost of setting up of the proposed unit is estimated to be INR 1.33 crore which includes the cost for land and building along with machinery and equipment for the facility What are High Value Garments? High-value Garments (HVG) are an important segment in the textile market. Through the process of higher value addition to garments, garment manufacturers are able to they are converted into finished products which has increased aesthetic look without compromising the quality of the product The key advantage of these garments is the high price, uniqueness, attractiveness and focusing a business more closely on its targeted market segments Additionally, the higher value addition increases market demand along with increased value and price for the garments Segmentation of High Value Garments Users of HVG Men s wear Women s wear Children s wear Unisex Segmentation of HVG by Use Active Formal Wear Casual Wear Traditional Wear Essentials Sportswear Uniforms Baby clothing Toddler clothing Imported and Indian Fabrics Used in HVG Chiffon Tulle Organza Lycra Silk Modals Other Stretch Knits Sources: https://books.google.co.in/books?id=rloibqaaqbaj&pg=pa188&lpg=pa188&dq=%22high+value+garments%22&source=bl&ots=1d2yktishj&si g=eidlookjt2y2je2e8pynjdpvmdq&hl=en&sa=x&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q=%22high%20value%20garments%22&f=false; Page 3
Project Concept Value Addition Processes Manufacturers of High Value Garments use several technique as part of the value addition process some of the techniques are: Fabric Value Additions Rope Wrinkle/Long Crush/Rope Crushing Rope Crush process is where the fabric is wrinkled in such a way that the effect is long term and the width of the fabric is lessened Crushing Fabric Methods such as trimming fibers, using patterned rolls, treating with hot fluids, using heated drums etc, are followed to create designs or sculpted effects on the fabric. Fabric Crinkling Fabric crinkling is a unique and attractive look to the fabric Crinkling can be done for ladies garment industries, kids garment industry, shawls & Scarfs industry, Textile Embossing Embossing is a technique in which images and patterns are created on the surface of a product through the application of heat and pressure Embossing is a natural and elegant process which changes the nature of the material on which it is done. Foil Printing Fabric Foil printing is the process of printing a pattern on fabric using foil in order to create a shiny effect on the fabric. There are two types of foil printing methods, first, pattern is printed by glue on the fabric and then pressed with foil paper by a hot steel roller. The second method is printing on the foil paper first and then press the foil on the fabric with hot steel roller or iron Finishing Mechanical Finishing Chemical Finishing Other Value Additions Printing All over Print Chest Print Special Processes Tie and Dye Batiks Quilting Closures Buttons Zippers Velcro Hooks Loops Embroidery Hand Embroidery Machine Embroidery Source: http://www.indiamart.com/maruti-processors/profile1.html Page 4
