Get to know us
The idea to start a garment processing unit was conceived in 2004 and that's how RCJC was started with just 3 machines. With a gradual trajectory, the expansion started happening as per the market requirements and innovation available in the field. RCJC kept forward on the path of progress under the mentorship of Sh. Arun Kumar Jain paved a technical path for this organization. Being a technical person with a textile background, his methodology enlightened RCJC with a very practical and technical approach.
As the times called for more transparency in working in terms of traceability and sustainability, we started working rigorously towards this need, from changing the infrastructure to processes. RCJC did a lot of studies with upcoming new technology and joined hands internationally to grasp a better understanding. With all that knowledge and technical know-how, we started incorporating them into the processes, with examples such as using tailored machines that use very low liquor ratios, using loading machines for Garment Dyeing in substitute to the conventional Side Loading. This move towards sustainability has now been an ever-inspiring motive at RCJC, which has caused us tremendous results that can be found applicable to us

Line Dry system
1000m robust garment drying mechanism has been installed at RCJC - Line Drying System to saves the reliance on Tumble Dry, thus saving Steam and Electricity upto 80% at one end while minimizing noise pollution on the other hand. Judicious placement of the system helps in optimum usage of the unit space, thus projecting a sustainable alternative.
Bio-Fue for Boiler
Boilers used at RCJC use sawdust as a fuel for converting water into steam and using it for multiple processes. Since sawdust is a by product of wood which can be locally available, it is peceived as a inexpensive and favoured solid fuel for generating steam. Opting for sawdust over coal and oil as a fuel is perceived to be an advantage as wood has low sulphur content compared to other two and is considered as a clean fuel in terms of pollutant emission along with it being relatively clean to handle and process. The emission of gases generated through burning of sawdust are properly filtered using glass fiber filters/dry and wet scrubbers to collect harmful particles and release clean gas into the atmosphere. All emission parameters are strictly monitored according to the emmision standards laid down by Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEF&CC) brought a Notification vide General Statutory Rules (G.S.R.) 96(E) on 29th January 2018 - for industrial boilers. Although for the boilers using Agro-based fuel and Natural Gas as fuel, there is no standard specified for sulphur dioxide and oxides of nitrogen, it is required to meet stack height criteria notified vide G.S.R. 176(E), dated the 2nd April 1996. In no case, the stack height shall be less than 11 metres.
Condensate Recovery Pumps
Steam produced through garment drying process is collected through a system of condensate recovery pumps instead of throwing it away and lead to significant savings of energy and make-up water upto 20%. Condensate can be reused as a steam or can be converted back to water which will again be used in Boiler. It can also be used as heated feed water by sending hot condensate back to the boiler’s deaerator
WasteWater Management
The industrial waste-water treatment at RCJC is carried out in a dedicated state-of-art completely automated & PLC operated Effluent Treatment Plants (ETP). The effluent treatment area is designed to contain and treat all internal process/utility wastewater. The effluent treated water is released to the Government Sewage Treatment Plant in the vicinity for further cleaning. We have converted all its water supply from Fresh water to Recycled water, thus eliminating the usage of Underground Bores and water supply from the municipal department entirely. The recycled water is sourced through a direct pipeline from a local Municipal Sewage Treatment Plant in Gurugram. With this, RCJC has become a sole washing unit running on 100% Recycled water, saving 1 million liters of fresh water everyday and doing its bit for the betterment of the environment.

It also allows the user to compare different processes and assess their subsequent results. EIM provides valuable information to determine if your garment finishing efforts lead to the desired obiective: THE REDUCTION OF THE IMPACT ON OUR ENVIRONMENT.
Environmentally Friendly Production Processes
As a drive for sustainability RCJC has made technical efforts as follows
Reduction in MLR
For each process MLR is maintained so ensure proper dosage of chemicals and dyes for the process. RCJC, through multiple trials and errors have reduced the MLR (material to liquor ratio, l/kg for machine and process). The standard for front loading machines is 1:7 i.e. for every 1 kg of garment 7 litres of water is used. We have reduced it in our production and now for some processes the machines are running at 1:5 and for some 1:6, reducing the water intake by 20% overall.
In-house Foam washing
As a drive to a more sustainable outlook, RCJC has introduced their in-house foam washing, where washing is done by creating foam instead of using water. This selective process has been converted to an MLR of 1:2, which reduced the water consumption by 15% for the entire wash.
Combining Process
As garments in over dyeing and washing go through multiple processes to achieve the desired results from boiling and desizing to neutralisation and softener wash there are multiple steps involved. RCJC has done successful trials where they have reduced these steps by combining chemicals and agents to create the same results hence reducing the number of steps involved, this has yielded reduction in water consumption by 25% in each process.

These machines typically use less water to achieve the same level of processing as conventional machines, which is crucial for large-scale garment processing where water conservation and cost savings are essential. ​ Front-loading machines often have a higher capacity than their top-loading counterparts. This means larger batches of garments can be processed in a single cycle, reducing overall processing time and increasing operational efficiency. ​ front-loading washing machines are equipped with a variety of programmable settings and options, allowing garment processors to tailor wash cycles to specific fabric types. This flexibility ensures that different types of garments receive the appropriate treatment, enhancing the overall quality of the process.
Pros of
Side Loading
Side-loading machines have brought about a revolution in the garment processing industry, offering a range of benefits that enhance efficiency, versatility, and overall productivity. These machines, designed with lateral material insertion capabilities, have transformed the way garments are processed, bringing numerous advantages to manufacturers and businesses ​ Enhanced Efficiency: Side-loading machines streamline the garment processing workflow by allowing materials to be inserted from the side. This eliminates the need for repeated material manipulation and repositioning, reducing handling time and minimizing the risk of errors. This efficiency boost leads to faster production cycles and improved throughput. ​ Versatility: These machines offer exceptional versatility as they can accommodate various types of garments and materials. Whether it's fabrics of different textures, thicknesses, or sizes, side-loading machines can handle a wide range of inputs, making them adaptable to changing production demands. ​ Space Optimization: Side-loading machines are often designed with a more compact footprint compared to traditional front-loading counterparts. This space-saving design is especially valuable for manufacturers operating in limited workspace environments, enabling them to optimize their production layout effectively. ​ Reduced Wear and Tear: The lateral material insertion mechanism of side-loading machines can contribute to reduced wear and tear on fabrics. Traditional front-loading machines often subject garments to more friction during loading and unloading, which can lead to increased fabric degradation over time. Side-loading machines minimize this friction, prolonging the lifespan of garments. ​
Line Drying
Line drying, a traditional method of drying garments in the open air, offers several compelling benefits in the garment processing industry. This eco-friendly and cost-effective approach provides advantages that extend beyond mere drying, contributing to improved product quality, reduced environmental impact, and enhanced efficiency ​ Gentle Fabric Treatment: Line drying is a gentle method that minimizes stress on fabrics. Unlike mechanical dryers that subject garments to high heat and tumbling, line drying prevents excessive wear and tear, preserving the texture, color, and overall integrity of the materials. ​ Cost Savings: By eliminating the need for energy-hungry mechanical dryers, line drying significantly reduces steam consumption. This is especially beneficial for small and medium-sized manufacturers looking to optimize their budgets without compromising on quality. ​ Preservation of Elasticity: Delicate garments with elastic components, such as lingerie or activewear, maintain their elasticity better when line dried. The absence of high heat and mechanical agitation prevents the breakdown of elastic fibers, prolonging the garment's functional life. ​ Sunlight Disinfection: Sunlight has natural disinfection properties due to its ultraviolet (UV) rays. Line drying garments outdoors exposes them to these UV rays, which can help eliminate bacteria, odors, and allergens, leading to fresher and more hygienic products. ​ Reduced Shrinkage: Line drying minimizes the risk of shrinkage, especially for natural fibers like cotton and wool. Controlled air drying helps maintain the original size and shape of garments, preventing unwanted alterations that can occur with rapid mechanical drying. ​ Elimination of Static Electricity: Mechanical dryers can generate static electricity that causes garments to cling together or stick to the dryer's walls. Line drying eliminates this issue, leaving garments free from static-related problems and ready for the next processing steps. ​ Connection to Tradition: Line drying connects to the tradition of garment care, adding a touch of authenticity and craftsmanship to the process. This can resonate with consumers who appreciate a more natural and artisanal approach. ​ Front-loading machines often have a higher capacity than their top-loading counterparts. This means larger batches of garments can be processed in a single cycle, reducing overall processing time and increasing operational efficiency. ​ front-loading washing machines are equipped with a variety of programmable settings and options, allowing garment processors to tailor wash cycles to specific fabric types. This flexibility ensures that different types of garments receive the appropriate treatment, enhancing the overall quality of the process.
Boiler
We are RCJC use biomass as a fuel for running our boilers Utilizing biomass as a fuel source for industrial boilers brings about a multitude of benefits that encompass environmental, economic, and operational advantages. Biomass, derived from organic materials like wood, agricultural residues, and even certain waste products, presents a sustainable alternative to conventional fossil fuels for powering industrial boilers ​ Renewable Energy Source: Biomass is derived from organic materials that can be naturally replenished, making it a renewable energy source. Unlike fossil fuels, which are finite and contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, biomass is more sustainable in the long term. ​ Carbon Neutrality: The combustion of biomass releases carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere. However, this CO2 is part of the natural carbon cycle, as plants absorb CO2 during growth. Using biomass for fuel maintains a near carbon-neutral balance, as the CO2 released is roughly equivalent to what the plants absorbed during their growth, creating a closed-loop carbon cycle. ​ Reduced Greenhouse Gas Emissions: Biomass combustion emits significantly fewer greenhouse gases compared to coal or oil. By replacing fossil fuels with biomass, industrial operations can contribute to mitigating climate change and lowering their overall carbon footprint. ​ Waste Management: Biomass fuels can be sourced from agricultural residues, wood waste, and other organic materials that might otherwise contribute to landfill accumulation. By using these materials as boiler fuel, industries can help manage waste while generating energy. ​ Front-loading machines often have a higher capacity than their top-loading counterparts. This means larger batches of garments can be processed in a single cycle, reducing overall processing time and increasing operational efficiency. ​ front-loading washing machines are equipped with a variety of programmable settings and options, allowing garment processors to tailor wash cycles to specific fabric types.
