There are two types of wastage:
  1. Production &
  2. Merchandising
Factors of Production Wastage:
  • Types of gauge
  • Material quality
Wastage consider in case of types of gauge and material quality:
  • In case of normal gauge/ regular gauge (3G, 5G, 7G); 4% production wastage is considered except chenille yarn.
  • In case of fine gauge (10G, 12G) add 1% more wastage for any fine yarn except chenille yarn. So production wastage is 4%+1%=5%.
  • In case of chenille yarn add 1% more wastage to the normal gauge and fine gauge. So for normal gauge of chenille yarn wastage is 4%+1%=5% and fine gauge of chenille yarn 5%+1%=6%.
