Fabric consumption for Polo shirt:
To get the fabric consumption for the knitted polo shirt calculation, you have to break down every single part of a knitted polo shirt. A basic knitted polo shirt should have the following individual parts:
1. Body parts (Body + Sleeve)
2. Pocket
3. Half-moon
4. Collar
5. Cuff
To calculate fabric consumption for the polo shirt first, we need to follow the polo shirt measurement (also add sewing allowance on it) sheet on the product development manual provided by the buyer
Also, fabric details as below as instructed by the buyer
- Body fabric:100% cotton pique fabric for body parts (Body + Sleeve+half moon+pocket ), GSM 200
- Fabric for collar & cuff 100% cotton Rib (as per buyer swatch) GSM 250
Now apply formula of fabric consumption for Polo shirt :
1. Body Fabric Consumption for the Body & Sleeve:
= (Body Length X Sleeve length) X (1/2 Chest) X2 X GSM X12 KGS/Dozen
10000000
= (78 + 28) X 62 X2 X 200 X12 KG/Dozen)
10000000
=3.09 Kgs/Dozen
2. Fabric Consumption for Pocket:
= (Pocket Length X Pocket Width) X200X12 Kgs/Dozen
10000000
= (13X 12)X 200X12 kgs/Dozen
10000000
=0.04 Kgs/Dozen
3. Fabric Consumption for half Moon:
= (Half Moon Length X Half Moon Width) X200X12 Kgs/Dozen
10000000
= (19X 11)X 200X12 Kgs/Dozen
10000000
=0.05 Kgs/Dozen
4. Fabric Consumption for Collar:
= (Collar Length X Collar Width) X250X12 Kgs/Dozen
10000000
= (40X 11)X 250×12 Kgs/Dozen
10000000
=0.13Kgs/Dozen
5. Fabric Consumption for Cuff (per doz polo shit require 24 pcs cuff ):
= (Cuff Length X Cuff Width) X250X24 Kgs/Dozen
10000000
= (26X 5)X 250×24 Kgs/Dozen
10000000
=0.08 Kgs/Dozen
Let’s add the total consumption for polo shirt (Body+Slv+Pocket+half moon+Collar + Cuff)
= 3.09KG+0.04KG+0.05KG+0.13KG+0.09KG
=3.40 Kgs/Dozen
Now adding fabric wastage 10% on it
=3.37 Kgs X 1.10
=3.50 KGS/Dozen
So, the total fabric consumption for Polo shirt is 3.50 Kgs/Dozen
