Garden Silk Mills Private Limited celebrated the successful inauguration of its FDY yarn expansion project, boasting an impressive capacity of 272 tons per day. This expansion marks a pivotal moment for the company, as it now produces “best in class” FDY yarn tailored for knitting, weaving, and sizing applications.

The state-of-the-art plant comprises nine lines of Oerlikon-Barmag Wings+ winders, each serviced by Salmoiraghi “Twin-Doffer” machines.

A sophisticated computerized control system oversees every aspect of the operation, ensuring seamless data collection and management, thereby guaranteeing quality and traceability throughout production. This groundbreaking project, a collaborative effort between India and Italy, underscores Garden Silk Mills’ unwavering commitment to quality and efficiency.
