Quality Conciousness
   
 
The quality standards at BSL set the benchmark in textiles industry both in India and abroad.
  • Quality consciousness is not limited merely to the department of quality control; it stretches over every product and the entire manufacturing process.
  • Skilled technical managers and staff of every department are experts, who understand the critical importance of progressively higher standards of quality in today's competitive environment.
  • Raw materials such as fibers, yarns, dyes and chemicals are thoroughly tested before they enter the manufacturing process. Every stage of the production line has its own set of comprehensive monitoring systems.
  Incoming Material Test
 
  • Dyes are evaluated for strength, sublimation, dispersion, washing & light fastness properties.
  • In case of chemicals & auxiliaries; physical state purity, specific gravity, amine value, cloud point, padding and boiling point are evaluated.
  • The fibers (wool, polyester, viscose tops & special fiber) are tested for fiber fineness micron (fiber diameter), fiber bundle strength, moisture regain percentage, finish percentage (as per WTO standards and specifications).
  • At the lab the micron is checked on the Wira Fiber Fineness Meter from UK, certified by the Interwoollab, Brussels.
  • Polyester viscose and cotton yarns are tested for - Count and several other tests.

Only after the material fulfills the standard specifications, is it allowed to proceed to the production line.

  In-Process Testing
 
  • Each and every batch is tested for wrapping gm/mtr and Uster percentage after combing at the 2nd, 4th, 5th, 6th passage of Gilling & Roving.
  • The yarn is checked on the Zellweger Uster Tester-3 and Uster Classimat II, Switzerland to assure consistency in yarn quality conforming to the norms of Uster statistics.

All finished fabrics are tested in accordance with international standards.

These tests include:

  • Residual Shrinkage, Tensile Strength, Pilling, CRA, Drape and Fastness to Light Washing & Rubbing as per ASTM and BIS standards

  CSIRO- Fast Quality Control
 
  • Fabric Assurance by Simple Testing - BSL is one of the few companies in the world to use this latest Australian test- to ensure that the fabric is a truly world class product.
  • Simple Finishing processes modify the surface of the fabric, which in turn influences the appearance and handle.
  • Fabric assurance by Simple Testing gives information to the apparel manufacturers for improvising and taking corrective actions in various processes of garment making.
