Socks of various types and designs can be produced on single cylinder or double cylinder knitting machines by using cotton . Acrylic, polyester and nylon yarn of different colours. The elasticportion can be produced by using rubberd yarn or lycra yarn . The sockses are then pressed and packed.
Market Potential
The largest consumer of socks are the Europeans and Western countries who have been using this item as part of their dresses for a very long period.
Only 2% of population in India wears socks and therefore, 98% market is yet to be exploited, while consumption of socks in most advanced countries is extremely high.
The existing production capacity in the country is grossly inadequate to meet the domestic and international demand. It is, therefore, feasible to set up more socks knitting units.
Manufacturing process:
Initially, the size and design of the socks to be knitted are decided and accordingly, the machines are selected and set. After setting the machine with the required design and size, the socks are knit.
