Abstract: Mostly Air jet looms are being used in the industry for production of high quality denim fabrics. Indian companies are producing denim fabric in millions of metres per annum while the export potential still remains weak. The main reasons for poor exports are quality of fabric not compatible with world class manufacturing with cost effective weaving, subjective decisions in four point fabric inspection system, urgency of delivery due to low production and retention of skilled manpower in a particular industry. Based on Market requirement only implementation and follow up of world class norms will improve the export of denim.
