Tenderer
The Bangladesh Handlooms Board is a state-owned and operated statutory public sector organization located in Dhaka, Bangladesh. It was established in January 1978 by the Government of Bangladesh and is administered by the Ministry of Textiles and Jute. The Board oversees the work of 1.5 million handloom weavers in Bangladesh. The Board works to preserve the traditional Benaras Palli, Jamdani and muslin weaving techniques of Bangladesh.
Recently our company participated in a tender organized by them related to textile testing instruments.
Technical specification of the textile testing machine
Fineness meter
Is a special Instrument which measure the fiber fineness of raw cotton or wool. Using the instrument, the quick and accurate of the quality of raw materials is possible. More effective mixing of cotton or wool is achieved.
