Kitex Garments Limited

One campus.One continuous line.

The plant at Kizhakkambalam is organised so that fabric never leaves the site between being knitted and being packed as a garment. Below is what is installed, described as the company describes it.

The Kitex process house at Kizhakkambalam
01

Process House

A single hall of 240 metres by 70 metres.

Fabric formation, dyeing, printing and finishing occupy one continuous building rather than a chain of separate suppliers. The company describes it as among the largest fabric production halls under one roof anywhere.

Installed capability

  • 180,768 sq ft of production floor in a single span
  • Digital dispenser system preparing colour recipes automatically
  • Modern dyeing, printing and finishing equipment
  • Knitting machines feeding the house directly
A centrally air conditioned sewing floor
02

Cutting Room

Pattern to lay without a manual handoff.

Pattern development, grading, spreading and cutting run as one automated sequence. The objective is a cut panel that matches the graded pattern rather than the operator's interpretation of it.

Installed capability

  • Pattern CAD plotting and grading machinery
  • Automatic spreader machines for faster fabric spreading
  • Automated cutting machines for precision and speed

03

Garmenting Floor

Assembly and decoration under the same roof.

Sewing, embroidery and screen printing operate as internal departments scheduled against the same order book, which removes the subcontractor lead time that normally sits between them.

Installed capability

  • Current generation sewing machinery
  • Modern embroidery machines in a large in house setup
  • Screen printing for chest and all over graphics
  • Centrally air conditioned throughout
The laboratory bench used for colour and fabric testing
04

Quality Laboratory

Colour read by instrument, metal excluded physically.

Colour is measured and transmitted electronically rather than assessed by eye, and every finished garment passes needle detection before it can be packed.

Installed capability

  • Spectrophotometer for electronic colour reading and transmission
  • Needle detector machines verifying product safety
  • Fabric and colour testing bench

Close to a port, and to an airport.

The campus sits close to Kochi with access to both sea and air freight, and supports a wider network of satellite businesses across the state.
