The textile industry has seen significant growth in recent years, driven by the increasing demand for eco-friendly and sustainable fabrics. Among the innovative solutions in this space, JUCO fabric, a blend of jute and cotton, has emerged as a premium option, valued for its strength, versatility, and environmental benefits. This fabric is gaining popularity in markets where sustainability is a key concern, especially in packaging and fashion. Sanal Fabrics, a prominent manufacturer in this sector, has positioned itself as a leader in producing high-quality JUCO fabric. Focusing on sustainability and innovation, the firm delivers ‘JUCO Fabrics with 100 percent cotton yarn’, ensuring superior quality without compromising on eco-friendly practices. The firm is meeting the growing demand for premium, sustainable materials by prioritizing quality and maintaining strict production standards. Their commitment to excellence has established them as a trusted name in the JUCO fabric market, poised for growth and expansion in both domestic and international markets.
“At Sanal Fabrics, our dedication to quality begins with meticulous procurement processes. We source premium jute and cotton yarns exclusively from reputed mills that provide certifications for thickness (count) and strength (CSV), ensuring the integrity of our raw materials and avoiding cheaper market alternatives that compromise quality. Jute, derived from bamboo-like plants, undergoes thorough fiber extraction and processing to achieve the required thinness for products like bags and wall hangings”, says V. Palaniyapan, CEO, Sanal Fabrics. Sanal Fabrics
ensures product purity and sustainability by using only 100 percent cotton yarn and avoiding polyester blends. The firm conducts rigorous checks on each fabric lot, assessing parameters like Construction (Reed and Pick) and GSM. After weaving, natural, food-grade starch is applied for stiffness and sheen, eliminating plastic laminations to maintain eco-friendliness.
Cotton Yarn and Jute Yarn Procurement
The company ensures the quality in sourcing the jute yarn and cotton yarn by adhering to stringent procurement standards. Sanal Fabrics exclusively source yarns with an appropriate Count and high CSP/CSV like 1400 for cotton yarn ensuring durability, which is critical for weaving eco-friendly fabrics. Though the cotton yarn with mixed polyester offers cost benefits, the firm strictly procures 100 percent pure cotton yarn to preserve the eco-friendly nature of the products. The firm's JUCO fabric, comprising 75 percent jute and 25 percent cotton, emphasizes the natural role of jute, with careful oversight to maintain its integrity. The firm rejects industry practices that compromise sustainability, such as using polyester blends or plastic laminations. Instead, the company innovates by introducing new fabric patterns, staying ahead in the market while upholding its commitment to eco-conscious practices.
By combining quality with sustainability, Sanal Fabrics is transforming the JUCO fabric market, offering eco-conscious solutions without compromising on performance or aesthetics
Price is a significant factor in the market, often leading to compromises in quality. "At Sanal Fabrics, we firmly believe that quality and afford ability can coexist. Although awareness of JUCO fabric is still growing in India, the demand is steadily increasing, but supply has not yet reached a critical point. Alongside a few key players, we are actively meeting this rising demand and strategically planning for future growth. Our focus is on attracting niche customers, especially in sectors like Jewelry, Garments and Cosmetics where JUCO bags are becoming a preferred choice for premium packaging. Jewelry brands value the eco-friendly, aesthetic appeal of JUCO for their product presentation", shares V. Palaniyapan.
Expansion & Scaling
At present, the firm is operating at full capacity, but the firm is also looking ahead, and exploring expansion opportunities. With certifications like the Jute Mark India and registration with the National Jute Board, it ensures the highest quality standards. As JUCO fabric continues to gain traction, the company is ready to scale its operations to meet the growing market demand.
