Why IndiaUnbox for home textiles: India combines mill-scale capacity with rich craft clusters—Panipat (bed/bath, throws, rugs; ~25,000 handlooms; ~60,000 jobs), Karur (global table/household linen hub), and Solapur (terry towels with GI protection)—giving buyers depth, variety, and price leverage.
Market proof: In 2023, India exported ~US$1.79 B of HS 6302 (bed/table/toilet/kitchen linen) and ~US$114 M of HS 6303 (curtains/drapes). Textiles & apparel formed ~8.21% of India’s total exports in FY 2023–24; the US & EU ≈47% share of T&A exports underscores acceptance in demanding markets.

How IndiaUnbox de-risks your buy

• Spec → standards map: we lock fiber labels for EU 1007/2011 & US 16 CFR 303, define care route (ISO 3758/16 CFR 423), and pre-agree test matrices by product (e.g., AATCC 135 max shrink %, ISO 12945-2 pilling grade, towel absorbency target via AATCC 79).

• Samples → PP → pilot run: colour lab-dips/strike-offs; shrinkage & fastness pre-checks; curtain FR pre-compliance (where specified) before PO.
  
• Inline + FRI to AQL with sealed samples; attach AATCC/ISO/ASTM reports, DoCs, and label artworks verified for market.
