An incredible story of growth – S.T. COTTEX
From a 25,000 spindles unit in the year 2000 to a textile conglomerate comprising 11 units with a capacity of 150,000 spindles, 6,000 open end rotors, and 50 circular knitting machines – that is the incredible growth story of S.T. Cottex Exports Pvt Ltd, Ludhiana. Today, S.T. Cottex manufactures 100% cotton and 100% spun polyester greige fabrics with a total production of 130 tons of yarns per day.
S. T. Cottex has a wide customer base within India and abroad. Their regular markets are South Korea, Malaysia, Taiwan, China, Vietnam, Indonesia, Singapore, Egypt, Israel, Portugal, Italy, Spain, Germany, Columbia, Peru, Canada, United States, Brazil, and Bangladesh. The domestic markets of S.T. COTTEX include Ludhiana, Amritsar, Delhi, Panipat, Ahmedabad, Mumbai, Ichalkaranji, and Kolkata.
Since the beginning, S.T. COTTEX believed in Truetzschler technologies. The mill in all has 45 Truetzschler cards.
Mr Aditya Sachan, Executive Director, handles the operation of all 11 units and is also responsible for the future project planning of the group.
Mr Sachan says he has worked with the DK 780, DK 800 and TC 5 series of cards. “Truetzschler is a world leader in carding technology and we are happy with the performance of the Truetzschler cards working in our units. The workers are also very happy because of the low maintenance of these cards,” said Mr Sachan.
“I should say that A.T.E. is playing its role very effectively. I am very happy that A.T.E. offers the right technologies and overall we are happy with the services provided by A.T.E. We are now looking forward to ITMA Barcelona, and I am sure A.T.E.’s principals will once again showcase innovative technologies at this show”, said Mr Sachan as he concluded the discussion.
