They cover wide range of colors and use the most energy efficient technologies in their dyeing section. To treat the effluent they have an operational biological ETP with a capacity of 50 cubic meter per hour.

It will enable re-use of dyeing effluents again in the dyeing process.

The capacity of this project is 300 cubic meter per hour keeping in mind their future production expansions. When operational it will be one of a kind ETP in our country setting up an example of re-using water from effluent in the production process.

One unique feature of their operation is the management audit board in every key production section to portray all the important and emergency information regarding production, maintenance, raw material supply, frequently occurring faults, production status etc. tagging all the concerned personnel. This enables all the problems to be visible and actions are taken promptly.
