Manufacturing process for cotton fabric

A tour around a factory to find out about the manufacture of cotton fabric and the various tests it must pass before leaving the factory. The process begins with the farming of cotton plants and moves on to combing, spinning and dying in order to produce the final material. The fabric is then checked for faults and goes through stretching, pilling and washing tests before it is sent out to be made into clothing.
