Al-Khumsiah completes rehabilitation of looms and start of production of high quality products

Despite its location on the front lines which led to it being targeted   by terrorist missiles throughout the years of the terrorist groups’ control of Eastern Ghouta, all this did not dissuade the cadres of the United Commercial and Industrial Company “Al-Khumasiah” from working and repairing and rehabilitating its looms and machines.

The company lost  23 martyrs of its cadres  who died either inside or on the way to or from work . However its cadres continue to work and produce with great vigor in maintaining, repairing and rehabilitating what was destroyed by terrorism in an effort to restore most of its production capabilities to what they were  before the war.

Today, Al-Khumasiah has completed the rehabilitation of 100 looms and the operation of  many machines,  according to Mustafa Hilal, the general manager of the company. He indicated in a statement to SANA that the rehabilitation operations began gradually in 2019, starting from the textile department and ending with the laundry.

Hilal noted that the company’s plan for the current year includes fully rehabilitating the air-conditioning station, the printing machine and 157 looms, and starting the process of producing high-quality fabrics and bed sheets. He said that the company’s losses in the infrastructure, machinery, transport and warehouse due to terrorism amounted to about 12 billion Syrian pounds.

Hilal pointed out that the company’s production of cotton and medical gauze continued from 2012 until the beginning of 2019 and during that period the needs of hospitals and health directorates in the governorates were met. He indicated that the annual production of the laboratory amounts to 700 tons of medical cotton.

On the company’s production during the year 2020, Hilal referred to the increase of production where the production of fabrics reached 3 million meters, compared with  only one million meters in 2019.

Adib Mansour, head of the company’s medical cotton department, pointed out that the production of cotton and medical gauze is 100 percent natural, which makes the product distinct from similar products in the markets through a very high absorption capacity.

Eng. Ayman Suleiman, the technical director of the company, pointed out to the replacement of  all the laundry lines with modern lines, including washing, whitening, dyeing, printing and final processing, pointing out that these lines were damaged as a result of the terrorist war, which forced the company to rehabilitate them.
