TEXTILE and our Life.

Every human being has some basic rights, which are essential for living. Clothing is one of those fundamental rights. Many years ago, people used bark and animal leathers as clothing for hide their body parts. After this, there have been many changes in human civilization with the passage of time.

The main component of a textile material is fibre. These fibre can be natural or man-made. Natural fibres are collected from many plants and the man made fibres are made manually. Those natural fibres are going over cleaning process to remove dirt, dust and natural oil. Then, fibres are twisted to making yarn from them. Industries use ring frame machine for producing the yarn. By using those yarns industries produce fabric. For this they use woven and knitting machine according to their needs. Those fabric is then dyed to produce color into them. Finally, in garments industries dresses are made according to the style by cutting, sewing and ironing. That's the general process of making our dresses. Those process are different for different types of textile materials.
