Manufacture of gloves with pvc coating. Knitting equipment for the production of gloves and outerwear. Approximate calculation of return on fixed capital

Russian-made gloves are in stable demand among consumers. The rate of income of enterprises manufacturing these products varies from 20 to 30%. Organization of production does not require large financial investments. The amount of investments depends on the planned capacity of the enterprise. In any case, the entrepreneur will return his money in 1.5 - 2 years. Therefore, the business for the production of cotton gloves can be considered as a fairly profitable enterprise that brings its owner a stable profit and has good development prospects.

Our business valuation:

Starting investments - from 1,650,000 rubles. and higher.

Market saturation is average.

The complexity of starting a business is 8/10.

Potential Buyers

Cotton household gloves are in demand in many areas of human life. They are used for domestic and industrial needs. Therefore, the manufacturer may consider retail and wholesale sales of finished products. It is advisable to conclude long-term contracts for the supply of wholesale batches of finished products to public utilities and industrial enterprises, to large construction companies and shopping centers.

Product range

The growth of sales is positively affected by the increase in the range of products. It is possible to establish the production of construction gloves with and without PVC coating.

The advantages of PVC coating are obvious:

• it is convenient to work in such gloves;
• they protect hands well from mechanical damage and the negative effects of the environment;
• products are durable and strong;
• air permeates through the knitted texture, eliminating sweaty hands.

There are also cotton gloves with a dotted coating and "drenched". It is possible to produce dense products knitted in several threads or double cotton gloves.

Financial investments

To open an enterprise whose activity is the manufacture of cotton gloves, you must have experience in this area and start-up capital. The most expensive item of the project is the purchase of equipment. But the amount directly depends on the estimated production capacity. For example, to organize a small business, you will need 15 knitting machines, an overlocker and a product packaging device. The total cost of the equipment will be about 1,400,000 rubles.

Company registration

The best option, which gives a number of advantages, is the registration of an enterprise in the form of an individual entrepreneur. Small production can pay tax based on profit - 15%, or on revenue - 6%. Larger organizations, where almost all products are sold through industrial and municipal services, and the main composition of buyers are legal entities, the taxation system should provide for work with and without VAT.

Premises for the organization of the workshop and staff recruitment

Before you buy equipment for the production of cotton gloves with PVC, you need to choose a suitable room. There are not many requirements for it: an area of ​​​​at least 100 m2 and the availability of the necessary communication systems. In the process of manufacturing cotton products, special machines and devices are used that operate on a 380 V electrical network.

The automatic glove making machine is the main labor force of the enterprise, so the production does not need a large number of workers. 3-5 people are enough to service 15-17 installations:

• one seamstress can change yarn and assemble finished gloves from 15-30 looms;
• one seamstress is needed to work on the overlock;
• The PVC coating device is serviced by one operator, who can also be a foreman at the same time (the technology allows maintenance of up to 60 machines by one adjuster).

The production shop will also need a cleaner and a handyman. The functions of an accountant at the initial stage can be performed by the entrepreneur himself.

The optimal solution for the owner of any production is piecework-bonus wages for employees. The salary of one employee will be at least 20,000 rubles. per month.

Manufacturing technology

Technological stages of production of gloves

Glove production technology consists of several stages:

• workpiece knitting;
• overcasting the edge of the cuff;
• application of PVC coating;
• drying in a special chamber;
• finished product packaging.

Modern knitting machines are divided into 4 classes (7G, 10G, 13G and 15G) and differ in their programs. The number indicated on the marking indicates the number of loops per inch.

The knitting machine knits the glove from the fingers to the cuffs. The program inserts the latex thread into the yarn at a certain point. The edge of the cuff is overlocked with polyester thread.

Cotton gloves with a latex coating involve the use of screen printing and a special matrix, with the help of which a layer of polyvinyl chloride is applied.

Equipment for the manufacture of work gloves

Knitting machine for gloves

The Russian market offers a large selection of equipment and auxiliary tools for enterprises engaged in the manufacture of such products. Devices have a different cost and quality. Therefore, before you buy a machine for the production of cotton gloves, you should carefully study the following aspects:

• specifications;
• terms of Use;
• manufacturer's reputation;
• price.

For most start-up entrepreneurs, the price of equipment for the production of cotton gloves is the main parameter when choosing. Knitting machines and devices for applying PVC are not cheap.

You can save in two ways:

• purchase of used equipment (for example: machine 10kl from 35,000 to 65,000 rubles);
• leasing.

In the first case, there is a risk of buying low-quality equipment. The second method involves the purchase of a new high-quality machine, but with a small overpayment.

The price of a machine for the production of cotton work gloves with computer control varies from 300,000 rubles. and higher (devices without an electronic control unit are cheaper). Therefore, when choosing the right device, you must familiarize yourself with its technical and operational characteristics. Malfunctions that have arisen during operation, or a breakdown of equipment, threaten the entrepreneur with large losses.

Apparatus for applying PVC to workpieces

The production line includes the following devices:

• knitting machine - from 300,000 rubles;
• overlocker capable of processing about 400 gloves (200 pairs) for 1 hour of work - from 130,000 rubles;
• a device that applies a layer of PVC - from 920,000 rubles;
• packaging machine - from 40,000 rubles.

A complete set of equipment will cost the entrepreneur about 1,390,000 rubles.

Consumable

Consumables for the production of gloves is a special blended yarn, which includes cotton, viscose, acrylic, wool. Raw materials are imported to Russia by Uzbek, Chinese, Turkish, Pakistani, Indian manufacturers and differ in price and quality. For example, products from China are much inferior in quality to Indian yarn, because the climatic conditions in India are better for growing cotton. But products from the Middle Kingdom at the same time cost much less than Indian raw materials. The supplier's country must be indicated in the certificate. The average cost of raw materials is about 100 rubles. for 1 kg.

In the production of work gloves, other materials are also used:

• cotton yarn with the addition of synthetic fibers;
• wool;
• semi-woolen thread;
• combinations of artificial fibers.

A businessman who decides to open an enterprise for the manufacture of work gloves must make a monthly supply of raw materials, the purchase of which will take about 350,000 rubles.

Economic calculations

A competent business plan for the production of gloves necessarily includes financial calculations. This item takes into account the costs associated with the organization of activities, the purchase of equipment and others. It also calculates the possible profit for a certain period and the profitability of production.

Consumption:

• rent - from 20,000 rubles;
• payroll fund - from 100,000 rubles;
• purchase of equipment - from 1,390,000 rubles;
• other expenses (tax, electricity, utility bills, transportation costs) - from 30,000 rubles.

A fully equipped workshop (15-17 knitting machines) can produce up to 35,000 pairs of gloves in 1 month.

Profit calculation:

• the cost of 1 pair of work gloves is about 6 rubles. (including the consumption of raw materials, electricity and others);
• selling price: wholesale - from 14 rubles, retail - from 17 rubles.

Net profit from 35,000 will be at least 300,000 rubles. All investments will pay off in 18 - 26 months.

The production and sale of working cotton gloves with PVC coating is considered to be a highly profitable enterprise. The demand for our products has been stable for many years. Business success is guaranteed by a competent plan based on a study of supply and demand, including a detailed opening scheme and preliminary calculations. The main problem of production is the sale of finished products.

If there is already a large manufacturer in the region, then before investing your own savings in the organization of a new enterprise, it is advisable to familiarize yourself in detail with the conditions of work of competitors. And also think over the policy of the new enterprise: what can interest customers, what bonuses, discounts and assortment can be offered to them.

The production technology of knitted cotton gloves (coated) consists of the following operations:

How can a store choose a range of work gloves?

How can a store choose a range of work gloves? Have in stock all types without exception or stop at a few popular positions? Glove Factory has prepared answers to these and other questions for you.

Three whales of the assortment: color, size and purpose

What attracts the buyer in the first place? Of course, color! Therefore, it is desirable to compose an assortment in such a way that several colors are present in it. If we take cotton gloves as an example, then the traditional colors - white, gray and black - can be supplemented with other options: orange, red, blue or olive. Olive and orange are high-quality hits of this season, speaking in the language of fashion. These gloves are made from durable yarn with the addition of quality polyester threads, which increases their durability and wear resistance. So such a glove will last long enough, it is not easily soiled, and in the version without PVC coating it can be washed and reused.

In addition, you can choose models with PVC coating in various colors: now in production it is possible to produce work gloves with PVC coating in black, blue and other colors. And various stencils - a dot, a wave or a protector - will help diversify the assortment within one model.

As for the size, it is necessary to take into account the fact that heavy manual labor is still the prerogative of more men than women, therefore it is better to offer gloves not only in a standard, but also in an enlarged size so that they can fit the size of a man's hand. Now the "Factory" produces models of standard size and products of improved quality with an increased size. The most popular models: 5-thread 24 size and 5-thread | LUX, as well as 5-thread LUX | Orange 24 size, 5-thread | OLIVA LUX 24 size

And of course, in order to understand which gloves you need to buy, you need to answer the question: “Why will customers buy gloves in our store?”

We take into account seasonality and the specifics of the store

When compiling an assortment of gloves for their intended purpose, you should consider the time of year when gloves will be sold, as well as the location and specifics of your store.

Let's start with the specifics and location, because it is these factors that will help you correctly form your assortment.

First of all, the most popular models should always be present in the assortment. From cotton gloves, for example, these are 5 threads with PVC, thick and medium gloves, class 10.

If there are, for example, a service station, a bus station or a taxi depot near you, you will most likely be in great demand for durable gloves that are resistant to wear and oil substances.

Thick gloves with PVC or latex coating, oil and petrol resistant leggings, as well as nylon gloves with different types of coating can form the basis of your sales.

If you sell household goods, you may be interested in such items as household rubber gloves, latex or nitrile coated gloves, and standard PVC coated gloves.

In the building materials store, you can offer all types of gloves for construction work: from universal cotton with PVC and gloves with latex coating to canvas mittens, glazier's gloves, dielectric gloves and welder's cuffs. Construction and repair is, as a rule, the largest consumer of both equipment and consumables, as well as overalls and PPE.

Work gloves can complement the assortment of an auto parts store, nylon gloves with PVC can be popular with buyers in art supply stores (nylon gloves are very thin and fit the hand well and allow you to perform precise work), and with a floral print and nitrile coating - in art supply stores. home and garden.

Production of PVC-coated cotton work gloves as a business

Gloves 3 strands with PVC coating - a great option for working in hot weather. They are thin, perfectly breathable, absorb moisture and do not hinder movement. 3-strand without PVC is the most budgetary model, which is also often used as an inner layer for leggings or other special purpose gloves.

In the autumn-winter period, the assortment can be expanded with insulated models, such as 5-thread wool blend gloves, insulated leggings and MBS gloves.

This idea is characterized by small financial investments, stable demand and high profitability. For professional builders, electricians and locksmiths, due to the peculiarities of their professions, these products are simply irreplaceable. In addition, the use of protective equipment is prescribed by the legislation of the Russian Federation in the safety rules. Given all this, we can safely say that this enterprise is a very tempting business idea. The production process of cotton gloves consists of several stages, each of which takes place on a specific machine.

It is best to organize a business as an individual entrepreneur (individual entrepreneur) under the simplified taxation system. But if an entrepreneur plans to sell products through wholesalers and large enterprises, then he will have to work with. In this situation, a general taxation system will be required.

Assortment and production technology

The amount of sales depends on the breadth of the product range. This business involves the production of protective gloves both with PVC (polyvinyl chloride) coating and without it. The first have a large set of advantages, they are:

• comfortable in work;
• perfectly protect hands from mechanical and other negative effects;
• have high wear resistance and long service life;
• well pass air (hands do not sweat).

The production of protective PVC gloves occurs in the following sequence:

• first, the blank of the future glove is knitted;
• then the edges are finished to prevent the dissolution of the thread;
• after that, a special PVC coating is applied to the palm of the product;
• then the glove is sent to the drying chamber;
• the final stage is packaging and labeling.

The work uses natural and synthetic raw materials: cotton, latex, polyester and wool fiber. Heat-resistant products are made from Teflon thread, and products that are resistant to mechanical damage are made from Kevlar. Most of the gloves are made from a blended thread containing 60-80% cotton and synthetics, which increases durability.

The required density of the workpiece is achieved by selecting the thickness of the yarn. Gloves are made from gray yarn with a density of 50, 74 and 100 tex. Many machines work with this set of threads, they are suitable for various classes of knitting.

Advice: it is better to choose a thread with the lowest coefficient of torsion, which allows you to get voluminous and dense products.

To make the product fit better on the arm, a latex ring is sewn into the cuff.

The PVC coating that is applied to the palm is referred to as plastisol. It is made of liquid plasticizers and polyvinyl chloride. In its normal state, plastisol is a paste, in a heated state it is a liquid mass. Due to its fast curing, increased mechanical and chemical resistance, this product is an excellent protective coating.

Machines for the production of PVC coated gloves

In the manufacture of cotton gloves, as with, the main emphasis is on a good machine. The leader in this field is the Japanese equipment manufacturer Shima Seiki. The second and third positions in this ranking are Korean knitting machines and Chinese machines. They do an excellent job with the work entrusted to them, and the affordable price allows you to open a business with little investment.

The equipment of the workshop, as a rule, includes four types of machines.

1. Knitting machine. Knitting blanks for future gloves. The minimum productivity is 16 pairs / hour. The average cost of the machine is 300 thousand rubles.
2. Glove overlock. Serves for an overcasting of an input edge of products. Average productivity - 190 pairs / hour. It costs about 130 thousand rubles.
3. Device for applying a layer of PVC. The productivity of the device (average) is 300-1100 pairs / hour. The most expensive part is about 950 thousand rubles.
4. Packing machine. Productivity - 450 pairs / hour. From 40 thousand rubles.

knitting machine

A modern computerized knitting machine is the basis for the production of protective gloves. The principle of operation for different models is approximately the same: a certain number of loops and rows is set on a digital monitor or using a plastic chain. Then the machine starts knitting. At the end of the workflow, the material is cut off automatically at the fingertips. The protruding ends of the threads are blown into the product under the action of the compressor.

All models involved in the manufacture of blanks for future gloves, in contrast, are divided into classes. The number corresponds to the number of loops per inch. That is, the higher the class, the thinner the knitting and the finer the details. Each product is created from the fingertips. Knitting machines are divided into automatic and semi-automatic (rare).

Glove overlock

This machine completes the production of work gloves. The device with the cuff overcasting function greatly increases the value of the finished product on the market. Thanks to the overlock, the gloves fit better to the hand, which improves the consumer properties of protective products.

The machine itself is completed with a working table and an engine. The machines differ in sewing speed, presser foot lift and overedging width.

PVC Coating Machine

A special machine (often from a Chinese manufacturer) is responsible for applying PVC to the inner surface of the product, the thickness and pattern of the coating. The coating is applied by screen printing using a standard matrix. Then the PVC-coated gloves are sent to a temperature-controlled drying chamber.

The whole process is controlled by automation. Polyvinyl chloride is supplied from containers. Application can be point or continuous. Also, the device allows you to select any image (logo or drawing) for application. Application accuracy is controlled by built-in sensors. Matrices for drawings usually come with the device. The productivity of the machine depends on the type and complexity of the pattern and can vary in the range of 800-1300 pairs / hour.

Packaging machines

Before the products go to the counter to the sellers, they are packaged and labeled. Packaging can be individual, group and mass, each of them uses its own equipment and devices. When packing protective gloves, group and bulk packaging is most often used.

• Group packing - carried out manually by rewinding the required number of pairs (5, 6, 10 or 12) with a bank elastic band or using a packaging machine (GD-T).
• Bulk packing. 200 pairs - but the quantity may be different, it depends on the existing requirements for the size and weight of the complete package. Products are packed manually in boxes, bags or bags. Then the packaging is glued or stitched.

In order to minimize the cost of storage and transportation of goods by reducing the volume of bulk packaging, a vacuum pressing apparatus (GD-TB) is used. Various types of equipment are used in marking, from simple office-type printers to automatic ink jet devices.

Equipment selection criteria

Today, there are a huge number of manufacturers involved in the production of glove equipment on the market. Therefore, there are certain difficulties with the choice of equipment, because it differs in both price and quality. Therefore, when buying machines for the production of PVC-coated cotton gloves, several criteria should be followed. The same principles take place when choosing any other technique: equipment for, apparatus for, etc.:

1. Price. For most, this is perhaps the main criterion, because not every novice entrepreneur has significant financial investments. Therefore, he cannot afford the purchase of expensive equipment. In this situation, you can go two ways:
   • Buy used equipment that is much cheaper than a new one. However, the entrepreneur will never know how many cycles she has worked. This purchase is a pig in a poke.
   • Lease the necessary equipment. Of course, this will result in a slightly larger amount than buying a used one, but an entrepreneur can be sure that he receives high-quality equipment.

Advice: a professional knitting machine with an electronic control unit (ECU) costs about 150-400 thousand rubles. It will be much cheaper to buy knitting equipment without an ECU. However, to work on such a machine, additional workers will be required, who need to be paid a salary, and this is a separate expense item. It should be understood that there are very few qualified specialists in this field, which means that the consumption of materials will increase, which again will entail additional costs. Therefore, before saving on good equipment, you need to think carefully about whether this stinginess will result in a large amount.

1. Reliability and durability. Downtime of glove equipment is very expensive, it leads to losses and lower profits. Therefore, when choosing equipment, you should listen to the recommendations of dealers specializing in the sale of such equipment. JOMDA brand knitting machines deserve special attention - they are of high quality and reliable. The undoubted advantage of the popular brand is the service and post-warranty service. By the way, service centers should be located in every large city.

Do not forget that any equipment, be it a glove machine or, needs regular maintenance (maintenance). This will help to maintain the quality and competitiveness of the products, and hence save profits. In addition, from time to time it will be necessary to update or upgrade existing equipment.

Save the article in 2 clicks:

The production of cotton protective gloves is a simple and affordable business to master. The only thing that can cause problems is with the choice of equipment. Preference should be given to machines that have the best price / quality / service life ratio. If you follow this principle, it will be easier to achieve the desired heights and profits.

In contact with

There are really many directions in business, especially in the field of production. People need different things, and each needs a manufacturer. Today we will consider, for example, the production of cotton gloves: technology, equipment for industrial production, advice on project organization and business profitability calculations.

Let's analyze this business

In our article, we specifically analyze the production of work gloves, which are used in quite a few areas of life. For example, such gloves are necessary for various loaders, gardeners or just keeping their garden, as well as workers at a construction site, because in all these cases it is important to protect your hands.

It is the lightness of the material and the presence of a special coating that allows this product to be in demand among the majority. What should be an advantage for an entrepreneur is that it is quite budgetary to produce work gloves, because the material for production is cheap.

The finished product itself also has a low price, which allows it to be sold in several pairs, even for one person. The project will turn out to be inexpensive at its start, and due to the high relevance and popularization of the product, it will pay off quite quickly.

Types of gloves and assortment analysis

To set up your own production of cotton gloves, you must first decide what specific products you are going to produce. The scope of gloves, as already mentioned, is quite extensive: agricultural work, repair and construction, transportation, work with raw materials, etc. That is why this product often differs in some parameters:

1. The type and general presence of a protective coating.
2. Palm size.
3. Base density level.
4. Color and design solutions.

In this case, the polyvinyl chloride used to create the coating is needed for gloves used when working with loading and special tools. For gardening, it is better to create products with a lower fabric density so that the hands can breathe. Carefully study the range of products to choose your specialization.

Here you can download for free as a sample.

We prepare the necessary documents

Once you've finalized the concept of your work glove business, it's time to officially launch it. To do this, you will have to register an individual entrepreneur or LLC. The Sole Proprietor is better suited for those new to the business, while the second option is essential for creating mass production and working directly with other organizations.

In our case, IP is also better suited financially. When registering, you will need to indicate the appropriate OKVED code. In our case, 18.24.23 is suitable - "Production of clothing accessories, including scarves, scarves, ties, gloves and other similar fabric products." It remains to choose a taxation system and obtain permission to work indoors from the SES and the fire department.

Choosing a platform for work

The right site will undoubtedly play a good role in the work of the project, so you need to choose wisely and rely on some requirements. For the production of cotton gloves, the following points must be observed:

• area not less than 90 square meters;
• the presence of a heating system;
• stable power supply of 380 W;
• good lighting throughout the area.

To rent a not too expensive site, try to find a suitable one outside the city. True, it is extremely important that there is a normal transport system and convenient access for trucks, so that raw materials are promptly supplied and finished products are taken away for sale.

We buy raw materials

Each plant purchases materials from which the finished product is later made, and it is worth finding a supplier of these materials in advance. The standard production of PVC coated cotton work gloves requires the initial purchase of the following raw materials:

1. Approximately 300 kilos of mixed yarn (if possible Indian).
2. About 5 kilos of latex threads.
3. 3 kilos of thread for overlocking the cuffs of each glove.
4. 200 kilo PVC plastisol.

This amount of materials should be enough for about a month, it is obvious that each raw material will have to be purchased in the future.

Equipment for work and types of machines

A business that manufactures work gloves will definitely need an overlock machine, a coating machine and a line for packaging the finished product. But the main equipment that must be in such an enterprise is a machine for the production of gloves. An average machine is capable of producing about 360 pairs of products per day.

It is best to buy machines with a large number of needles, definitely not less than 15, in order to improve the quality of knitting in general. This equipment is divided into two different types according to the method of operation:

• Automatic machines - work according to a specific program in automatic mode.
• Manual machines - all data, such as a set of loops, is given by a special chain.

Obviously, automatic production machines are much more productive and able to execute more commands, producing a more varied result. But it is also clear that such equipment has a high cost, especially when it comes to foreign ones. Japanese machines, by the way, are the best in their field, slightly inferior to Korean and Chinese ones.

In order not to spend huge amounts of money, but to buy high-quality equipment for the production of gloves, it is worth finding used, but still high-quality machines. This also applies to other devices. It is important that the machines and overlock work perfectly, then the products will be of the highest quality.

Hiring staff

A typical cotton glove production project needs to hire at least a small staff. In order for the activity to be well organized, you will have to find the following employees:

1. Two seamstresses for machine maintenance.
2. Operator-mechanic to control the operation of equipment.
3. A worker operating a packaging line.
4. Warehouse chief.
5. Loader.
6. Cleaner.
7. Account Manager.
8. Driver with own car.

The cost of each worker is quite small, but in the aggregate it comes out a decent amount, so that the owner of the project can take on some work at first. The owner of the IP is also required to keep accounting records, and at first it is better to do it on your own with the help of an experienced person and only with the expansion of the project hire a full-time or one-time accountant.

We establish sales channels

Any project that involves the business of manufacturing something requires a careful search for ways in which the manufactured products can be sold. Being engaged in the manufacture of construction gloves, you can already guess what audience this product is designed for.

Based on this, you need to choose the places that are most interested in selling such a product, because not everyone will buy work gloves from the manufacturer. Best Sales Channels:

• construction shops and salons;
• gardening shops;
• wholesale firms of building materials and related tools;
• industrial enterprises;
• construction companies;
• municipal organizations (housing and communal services, utilities, etc.).

The advantage of this business is that cotton products do not have an expiration date, so the manufactured product can be sold gradually and stored in a warehouse. Given that the demand for work gloves is stable all year round, as well as the cost of a pair of gloves, selling products is not particularly difficult.

We will calculate the profitability of the project

To determine how profitable the project is, you need to draw up a financial business plan, determining both the costs of opening and maintaining the enterprise, and the income and net proceeds from sales. Let us take as an example a small enterprise engaged in the manufacture of cotton gloves for construction needs.
