आज कोयंबटूर स्थित SITRA में कादरी मिल्स के मैनेजिंग डायरेक्टर एवं सीईओ से मिलकर उनके द्वारा विकसित रेशम मिश्रित वस्त्रों का अवलोकन किया।

यह देखकर प्रसन्नता हुई कि सिल्क कॉटन, सिल्क मोडल, सिल्क लिनेन, सिल्क विस्कोस और मटका सिल्क फैब्रिक्स जैसे नवाचारों के माध���यम से भारतीय रेशम को दैनिक उपयोग के पुरुष परिधानों और प्रीमियम होम टेक्सटाइल उत्पादों में नई पहचान मिल रही है।

ऐसे प्रयास स्थानीय वस्त्र उद्योग को नई शक्ति दे��े के साथ-साथ भारतीय रेशम को वैश्विक बाजार में भी नई ऊंचाइयों तक पहुंचाएंगे।
