Welcome to Wool & Woollens EPC
The woollen textile and clothing industry is relatively small compared to the cotton and manmade fibre based textiles and clothing industry, yet the woollen sector plays an important role by linking the rural economy with the manufacturing industry, represented by small, medium and large scale units. The product portfolio is equally divergent from textile intermediates to finished textiles, garments, knitwear, blankets, carpets, etc. with presence in technical textiles. This industry caters to civil and defense requirements for warmer clothing.
Indian Woollen Industry
The wool industry has been undergoing significant transformation over the years, as technological advancements in knitting and improvement in textures and fabric quality continue to speak of a new wave of aesthetic appreciation. The real growth opportunities, however, lie with millennial consumers whose purchasing behavior such as preference for quality, authenticity, and transparency are characteristics inherent to wool.

India Woollen textiles and clothing industry is relatively small compared to other fibre based textiles and clothing industry. However, the woollen sector plays an important role in linking the rural economy with the manufacturing industry, represented by small, medium and large scale units. The product portfolio is equally divergent from textile intermediaries to finished textiles, garments, knitwears, blankets, carpets and an incipient presence in technical textiles. Wool industry is a rural based export oriented industry and caters to civil and defence requirements for warmer clothing.
