Knit Fabric Consumption Formula for a Basic Polo-Shirt
Ques: H&M forwards a knitted polo shirt item order (10000pcs) to you with the following specification.
- 100%
cotton single jersey fabric for body parts (Body + Sleeve), Half-moon, and
Pocket. Where fabric GSM is 160.
- 1 X 1 Rib fabric for collar and Cuff. Where the fabric GSM is 230
1.
Fabric consumption for Body parts (Body +Sleeve):
Here, we will follow the following formula (per dozen),
(in kg)
(in kg)
= 2.48 kg per dozen.
2.
Fabric consumption for Collar:
(in kg)
= 
(in kg)
=
0.12 kg per dozen
3.
Fabric consumption for Cuff:
(in kg)
= 
= 0.072 kg per dozen
4.
Fabric consumption for Pocket:
(in kg)
=
=
0.03 kg per dozen
5.Fabric consumption for Half-moon:
(in kg)
=
=
0.04 kg per dozen
Now,
the total amount of cotton single jersey fabric needed for this order is (per
dozen),
[{Fabric’s consumption for Body
parts (Body +Sleeve) + Fabric’s consumption for Pocket + Fabric’s consumption
for Half- moon} + wastage (10%)]
=
(2.48+ 0.03+ 0.04) +10%
=
2.65 Kg per dozen
So,
for 10000pcs (833.33 dozen) polo shirts, cotton single jersey fabric needed (2.65 X 833) = 2207 kg
Total
amount of (1 × 1) Rib fabric needed for this order is (per dozen),
= {(Fabric’s consumption for Collar + Fabric’s consumption for Cuff) + wastage
(10%)}
=
(0.12+0.072) +10%
=
0.292 kg per dozen
So,
for 10000pcs (833.33 dozen) polo shirts clothing, (1 X 1) Rib fabric needed
(0.292 X 833) = 243 kg
Ans:
S/J fabric is needed = 2207 kg
1 X 1 rib is needed = 243 kg
