Realising the need for sustainability, many companies are setting up units for making yarns from recycling poly-flakes. This also presents a good opportunity for Himson for growth. “Our machines are ideal for processing recycled yarns. This way we help reduce waste and make valuable contribution to save environment. For yarn makers, it makes a business sense as many textile brand owners prefer to use recycled yarn in the products to achieve their sustainability goals,” informed Darshan Bachkaniwala.

We have recently increased our manufacturing capacity to meet the growing demand. We want to grow in terms of the number of spindles that we supply. We are also increasing our range of high-end machines with value added features. Thus, we want to grow our business by increasing quantity as well as quality (value) of our spindles.â€
