Nothing left to chance.

01 · Yarn & Fabric We source yarn from approved mills in Tirupur and Erode — and knit fabric in-house before any cutting begins.

in-house.

Step 01

Yarn sourcing

Combed and carded cotton yarn sourced from Tirupur and Erode mills. Counts selected per buyer GSM specification — typically 30s for jersey, 40s for fine pique, 20s for fleece and terry. Yarn certificates available on request. Organic / GOTS yarn sourced on confirmed order with advance notice.

Step 02

Circular knitting

In-house circular knitting machines produce jersey, interlock, pique, single-jersey, double-jersey, terry and fleece grey fabric. GSM is checked immediately after knitting against buyer specification — reknit if outside tolerance. Grey fabric is relaxed and pre-shrunk before cutting to manage dimensional stability.

Step 03

Cutting & bundling

Fabric is spread and cut to buyer tech pack or CR Garments in-house pattern. Size sets checked against graded spec. Bundles are tagged and tracked through the sewing floor — no mix-ups between orders or size sets.

Step 06

Wash & finishing

Bio-wash and enzyme wash for soft hand-feel and anti-pilling. Silicone softener finish for premium jersey. After washing, a random sample is measured against the approved sample's washed dimensions — further pre-shrink treatment applied if required. Finished garments are steam-ironed and folded to buyer specification before entering the final QC stage.
