INDUSTRY PROFILE

2.1 INDUSTRY PROFILE

Handloom productions have national contribution to significant GDP and export
earnings. According to the Ministry at textile, export earnings have laid as 1998-1999
was Rs 1956 cores, current figures are respected to the around the same. The
Handloom Sector Provides employment for an estimated 12.5 million people and is
the largest rural employment provides to go to agriculture, generating jobs also in
semi urban and urban areas at India.

Handlooms. In North Eastern States there are more than 15, 00,000 Domestic
Handlooms. Handlooms in North India and South India are geared for commercial
production for domestic and also exporting their products abroad.
Many Handloom centers well know tourist spots, drawing from places of India
and foreign countries as well. Thus the tourism Industries fortunes are in part
influenced the Handloom Sector and its frame. There are 32 other sectors benefiting

from Handloom sector, including transportations, financial services, marketing

services and maintenance services, hotels.
Handloom has an umbilical linkage with cotton farmers and rural formers and the
rural form economy. Agricultural labor gets employment in Handloom sector during
the non Agricultural seasons; the sector has self sustaining mechanism including
training for young weavers irrespective of genders.
Textile industry is flourishing day by day in India. But at the sometime Handloom
are facing various threats. There is negligence from the part of government towards
Handloom Industry. The grants and subsidies provided by the government are
reducing. Those Handloom Industries running in poor conditions are not getting
special attention from government.
Lack of experienced workers is another important problem faced by the industry.
The Industry does not able to recruit adequate for doing the work efficiently and
effectively. The mistakes from employees while producing results very serious
problems like deterioration in quality, changes in color affects the societies business
adversely. Due to this, many of the regular customers are returning the sold products.
So that sales return is increasing year by year. They never give any consideration that
this is a Handloom Industry; most of the products are handmade so there is a chance
of small defects.

HANDLOOM INDUSTRY IN KERALA

by converting sale system in to output. The core of a production system is conversion
subsystem, where materials and machines are are used to convert input in to product
and services.

PRODUCTION FUNCTIONS
Production function means the functional relationship between input and
output. The transformation of input to output is the meaning of production. There

exist a relationship between input and output, i.e., a change in the quality of input
leads to the change in the quality of output. Input means those things which are used
for producing goods and services. Production is creation of values or utilities.
There are four production factors.
a)
b)
c)
d)

Land
Labor
Capital
Organization

PRODUCTION DEPARTMENT IN CWCS

PRODUCTION PROCESS
Production Process converts input like materials, labor and capital in to some
tangible outputs. Steps of production process
1. PLANNING
Production Plan is charted out on the basis of customers order and also
for regular local market. This plan is finalized by holding a meeting of board
of directors.
2. SAMPLE DEVELOPMENT
The company develops various designs such as woven printed fabric swatches
and it can be directly taken for bulk production or to prepare full size samples.
3. APPROVAL OF SAMPLES
Develops samples are forwarded to lawyers along with cost particulars.
Customers approve or reject the sample. If approved, the designs are sent back
to production centers for production with specific remarks on quantity to be
produced and any changes required in color and patterns. The Society also

produces the design according to the samples provided by customers and those
samples are forwarded to the weaving masters and production is done
accordingly.
4. PROCUREMENT OF YARN
After the approval of sample required raw materials such as yarn, dyes
and chemicals are procured. The raw materials are obtained from the co
operative mills, NABARD and also from private agencies and stored in
societys god own.
5. PROCESSING OF YARN
The required yarns are collected from godowns and toed up in to lots.
Yarn when procured is either is given as raw yarn only or it is passed through
the following processor according to the requirements. The yarn is transferred
to various processing centers. Raw yarn need to transfer to weavers. In the
processing centers yarn is passed through the following process.
a) Boiling:
Grey cotton yarn as such is not directly suitable for dying or
bleaching as it contains natural impurities such as fats waxes, coloring
matter peclino, broken leaves etc. this is done by boiling by yarn with hot
alkaline soap solution in kier under high pressure or in open lacks without
pressure at 90-95 Degree Celsius temperature.
b) Bleaching :
In order to obtain white material and facilitate the production
of pale and bright shades, it is necessary to remove the material coloring
matter is yarn by a process called bleaching with the help of bleaching
powder or hydrogen peroxide.
c) Squeezing
The boiled wet yarn is then squeezed to eliminate water which
is then ready for coloring.
d) Dyeing
The yarn is then dyed using VAT dyes. VAT dyes are used
because of their fastness to light washing, rubbing and perspiration
even to hypochlorite bleaching. They are used in the production of
colored shirting, sarees, laboring material, window curtains and fabrics
that are frequently subjected to laundering. There dyes include a wide
range of colors

e) Drying
Dyed yarn is dried in dryer and put in sunlight to extract
moisture from yarn. Dried yarn is then transferred to the stores from
where it is handed over to weavers. Quantity specifications are made in
regard to the number of wefts and warps in each pick.

f) Bobbin Winding
The collected yarns are then wounded into a bobbin that is the
threads are placed in to bundles in the required pattern and the process
is called bobbin winding.
g) Warping
Warps are the set of yarn placed lengthwise in the loom
forming lengthwise thread of a woven textile. Warping is done and this
is then rolled out and supplied to weavers.
h) Twisting (Piercing)
It is the next process which comes after warping .twisting
makes the yarn more free and gives neat to the work. It is done with
hand and need lot of practice.
i) Weft Winding (Pirn Winding)
Different patterns of weft are also made. Weft is the set of yarns
carried by the shuttle and voked at the right angle with the warp. This
roll is called pern.
j) Weaving
The warp and weft are inter lace and turned to bring it out as a
woven textile That is weaving the warp and weft is inter voked at right
angles. The warp yarns are held in place on a loom and the weavers
inserts the weft yarn. A better form of loom is known as Jacquard
looms to weave out different design can be weaved out easily in this
loom.
k) Measuring and Inspection
Before packing, weaved out fabric is measured and inspected to
meet the specifications. Any defeat in the material will lead to the
rejection of material.
L) Stitching and Packing
After measuring and inspection the material is given to stitching
section for perfection. At each step the inspection is done by the

weaving masters. Stitched material is folded neatly and ironed. Then it

is taken to the packing section for packing. Then the cloth is ready for
sale.
