Textile Mill workers removing impurities from raw cotton
 

Sharing a photo I took of textile mill workers manually removing impurities from bales of cotton. This is a textile mill in Rawalpindi Pakistan which makes high quality bedding for export to hotels, interesting tour. Most of the cotton is coming from India.

Wow. I bet that was an interesting tour.

how interesting

thanks for sharing.

can you imagine doing that for hours,at a time!i

Thank you for the amazing photo.

Your photo and perspective of the tour should make all of us better appreciate the finished fabric we work with.

And most probably being paid a pittance.

impressive! still doing it the old fashion way! I bet it develops everyone's patience...

isnt that what the cotton gin was invented for? So it seems there are still forms of slavery present in this world......
