A mill for woven textiles
Glamour Textile Mills Limited takes cotton and blended yarn through warping, weaving, dyeing and finishing on a single site at 11 KM Manga Raiwind Road — producing fabric to a buyer's construction, shade and hand.

The mill
We are a weaving house first. Everything else we do — the dyehouse, the finishing range, the inspection tables — exists to make the cloth that comes off the looms behave the way a buyer expects it to.
The mill sits eleven kilometres along Manga Raiwind Road, on the industrial corridor that runs south-west out of Lahore towards Raiwind. It is close to the Punjab cotton belt that supplies most of our yarn, and close enough to the city that sampling, approvals and shipping documents move in hours rather than days.
Work is organised around repeatability. A construction is proved on the sample loom, locked as a recipe — sett, reed, pick rate, sizing formula, dye class, finish sequence — and then run to that recipe every time it is ordered. Shade continuity is held against an approved standard rather than against the previous lot, so the tenth delivery matches the first.
We supply apparel converters, home-textile packers and institutional buyers, in loomstate, dyed or fully finished form, and we are equally willing to weave to a customer's own yarn and specification.

Manufacturing
Cones are conditioned and creeled by lot. Yarn from a single lot is kept together through warping so that any variation in count or twist stays inside one beam rather than striping a piece.
- 01
Yarn intake
Ring-spun and open-end yarn is received by lot, checked for count, strength and evenness, and conditioned before it goes anywhere near a creel.
- 02
Warping & sizing
Sectional and direct warping to the required sett, then sizing to the yarn's own recipe — enough film to survive the shed, little enough to wash off cleanly.
- 03
Drawing-in
Every end is drawn through its heddle and dent. The draft and denting plan are held with the construction so a repeat order is rebuilt exactly.
- 04
Weaving
Plain, twill, satin, basket, herringbone and dobby-figured cloth. Loomstate is checked at the loom and again on the greige inspection frame.
- 05
Dyeing
Preparation, then reactive or vat dyeing to an approved standard, with laboratory matching before bulk and shade continuity checks through the run.
- 06
Finishing
Singeing, mercerising, sanforising, calendering and softening — chosen to hit the hand, shrinkage and width the buyer signed off.
One end per eye. The drawing-in plan is what makes a weave a weave.
Twist direction and turns per inch decide how a cloth will take dye and how it will wear.
04
Quality
A fault costs least at the loom and most at the buyer. So we look early, look often, and write down what we saw.
Greige is inspected on frame before it is allowed into preparation. Finished pieces are graded on the four-point system, and every dyed lot is checked against its approved standard under controlled lighting rather than by eye at the table.

Collections
Yarn-dyed checks
C/01Warp and weft dyed before weaving, so the pattern is built into the cloth rather than printed onto it. Colourways are drafted to the buyer's palette; the ground weave can be plain, twill or oxford.
Herringbone
C/02A reversing twill run at several repeat widths, from a fine suiting chevron to the broad jacket weight shown here. Suits piece dyeing as readily as it suits a two-colour yarn-dyed ground.
Figured dobby
C/03Motifs lifted out of a satin ground by swapping the weave rather than the colour, so the figure reads as light on cloth. Used for home textiles, table linen and decorative apparel panels.
Shade library
C/04Standing shades held as physical standards and re-cut on request, plus development against a buyer's own reference. Lot-to-lot continuity is judged against the standard, never against the last delivery.
