In 2004 we expanded our production capabilities to include knitting of body size fabrics.  During this time period we have established strong relationships with local key suppliers. All fabrics are processed and finished in modern, state of the art dye plants.  We have been involved with circular knit production facilities for nearly three decades and have built a sound reputation for integrity and high quality goods. Carmel has been active in developing products in cottons, cotton blends and hi tech synthetic micro-fibers for performance fabrics. We also provide our customer access to GREEN products made from recycled fibers as well as organic and eco friendly natural fibers. The combination of our technical experience and long-term supplier relationships in the industry allow us to deliver a wide range of fabrics, and garments.  We leverage technology, logistics and experience to speed up our product development process and production time to meet current needs of speed to market merchandising.
