tor, disclosed that in the last one year the company has commercial-
ised 11 innovative products, including yarn from special materials
like bamboo and soya. “Our research team is working relentlessly,
and this year we hope to release fve unique yarns which shall help
RSWM create a special niche in the world of textiles.”
Other than among country’s largest melange yarn manufacturers,
RSWM’s product basket comprises specialty, functional, technical
and eco-friendly yarn using nano-technology and biotechno-
logical fbers.
The company will continue to strengthen, as its newly-
commissioned capacities will generate sizeable volumes,
and the new products launched in 2010-11 are likely to
fnd new markets. The launch of natural stretch yarn
is expected to accelerate the offtake of value-added
yarns, leveraging a strategic alliance with DuPont
to exclusively produce natural stretch yarns under
the DuPont Sorona brand. Besides, the compa-
ny expects to add 70,000 spindles in 2011-12
aimed at reaching 700,000 spindles by 2016.
