Jute textiles
I am researching jute textiles and I am learning a lot about different natural fibers. Jute has historically been one of the most important sources of income for Bangladesh, mostly for industrial purposes. But now the business of jute fabrics produced for diversified products is growing immensely in Bangladesh and more and more manufacturers are experimenting with different processes and how to make the jute fiber as soft as possible. It is surprising to see how good quality you can get using a very simple manufacturing process and without the need for that much chemical treatment.
