Renovated mill creates export quality yarn

The State Industries Minister of Kerala AC Moideen has recently flagged the first shipment of yarn from the Thiruvananthapuram district which is being exported to China and Thailand for manufacturing jeans and bed sheets.

The batch has been created in the newly renovated Trivandrum Spinning Mills (TSM) in Balaramapuram in Thiruvananthapuram district of Kerala The mill, equipped with the latest machinery imported from Germany, China and the Czech Republic, has increased its capacity to 360 rotors.

TSM chairman MM Basheer said that the mill has shifted focus to South Asian markets from selling its yarn in Kolkata, where it gets better price.

Basheer added that as the machinery purchased was not ideal for making yarns used by the local handloom industry for manufacturing sarees and ‘mundus’. TSM plans to make a depot to help other spinning mills in the state to procure yarn.
