Approximately 80% of our textile mills' production capacity is channeled into 50+ of our state-of-the-art garment factories. Here, we produce apparel that reaches customers worldwide. The synergy between our in-house design, innovation, and laboratory teams allows for a seamless design-to-product process.
These aspects ensure unmatched visibility and an elevated quality standard throughout the production journey, from yarn to fashion. Shahi’s in-house design team and laboratory ensure seamless integration of our customers’ needs from fiber to final product.
Spinning, Knitting & Processing
In 2012, Shahi set up a USD 130 million world-class, spinning-to-shipping facility located in Shimoga, Karnataka. The campus, which is spread over 250 acres, houses best-in-class technology from around the world for automated material flow and quality assurance. It delivers a wide range of knitted fabrics, including jersey, interlock, pique, lacoste, rib, French terry, jacquards, and auto stripes, in cotton and cotton blends, using low to high yarn counts.
We source cotton products with complete traceability and due diligence, ensuring ethical sourcing with global standards.

In 1996, Shahi set up its first textile mill spread across 30,000 square meters, Sarla Fabrics Ltd., in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh. Its Research and Development wing is certified by the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research. This enables a quick lead time for development and sampling.
In March 2018, Shahi launched its second wovens plant, spread across 900,000 square feet in Shimoga, Karnataka. The plant is designed to have a single-line layout from singeing to finishing, which optimizes material flow distance.
Our wovens facilities process cotton, rayon, linen fabric, and blends— from lightweight tops fabric to heavy bottoms fabric. These facilities can produce a variety of finishes, including standard finishes like mercerization, brushing, and peaching; and highly specialized proprietary finishes such as easy-care, wrinkle-free, and silky finish.

Design
Our design and product development infrastructure comprises a dynamic team of over 90 skilled designers. Each of them specializes in various domains such as CAD (Computer-Aided Design), 3D draping, 3D sampling, textile innovation, and apparel design. Creating a digital twin of the same garment using 3D and VR technology speeds up the approval process. Augmented reality solutions eliminate the need to travel without compromising quality parameters, ensuring we remain ahead of the curve. Thus, conservation of resources and time is embedded into our design process.
Internal Laboratory
Shahi's in-house lab is well-equipped with calibrated instruments, machinery, and proficient staff. It plays a crucial role in our production cycle and drives quality, consistency, and customer experience improvements. Our lab also conducts rigorous product performance and color testing across raw materials, fabrics, garments, and trims. These tests adhere to international standards set by organizations such as the American Association of Textile Chemists (AATCC), the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) International, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), and the British Standard (BS). Additionally, we integrate client-specific in-house testing methods to ensure a comprehensive evaluation.
The laboratory has been accredited by several leading, global brands to conduct performance testing and color approvals.
