Fabricato (Factory Visit)

Posted by tforcucci Jul 29, 2008

Paid a visit yesterday morning to Fabricato, the most well-known Textiles producer in Colombia and famous throughout the industry. We were offered an incredible tour of the facilities to see first-hand how raw cotton goes through the entire process to create fabric. Mr. Jorge Malabet was nice enough to give us a personal experience walking us through the various stages of the plant which is located in the valley of Bello. The production is cutting edge in all respects, from water treatment to cotton manipulation to raw denim production. We were impressed with Fabricato and they were interested in how MFG.com can be an excellent tool for the both on the Supplier side and as a Buyer for a huge amount of spare parts for the countless machines they have on hand. Here are some images:
