Sweater Manufacturing Process
At the initial
stage, different types of yarn have been brought from local and
international yarn manufacturer, and the accessories are collected
from backyard-linkage industries of local and foreign origin. At the
next step, raw package of yarns are rolled up for giving those
suitable revolving shape and sent those to Yarn Distribution (YD)
section, where every spin of yarns has been properly weighted, and
specific amount of spindled yarn has been allocated to the Knitting
section.
Every part of
sweater is knitted in the knitting section and passed them off First
Inspection to get those checked whether each part is properly
knitted or not, and to get confirmed if any yarn is wasted. After
First Inspection, each part of the sweaters is linked up in the
linking section and thoroughly checked in the Second Inspection and
then to light checking with a view to ensuring if any hole is
present in the sweater.
Accurate
measurement is tested in the Third Inspection; if it is found up to
the standard, the sweaters are passed through the labeling section,
where neck, care and size label are attached. Steam ironing is
performed after labeling and sent them in the quality control
section, where each part of sweater is checked carefully, thus if
the sweaters are found not up to the standard, they are sent back to
the Third Inspection section for mending the loopholes. Whole
process of knitting is being examined at final inspection section,
and passed them for packing or folding. After packaging, whole lots
are transferred into the warehouse and keep them standby for
shipping.

Safety and Work Environment
The location
of the factory is off from the residential area. Safety and security
issues are kept as the first priority in the company’s code. Some of
the security measures are:
-
Two way
accessibility to the factory
-
Proper
sanitation for the workers
-
Clearly marked
emergency exits
-
Easily
available fire extinguisher
-
First aid
facility for the workers
-
Proper drainage
system around the production unit
-
Adequate supply of water
