Moving Hemp Forward with Mandi Kerr & Shripat Jagirdar



Join Mandi Kerr and Shripat Jagirdar on Thursday morning’s episode of Moving ^HEMP Forward.

Shripat is 31 years old from Mumbai, India. He joined his father in the textile business in 2014 and realized the need for a sustainable alternative to the most extensively used Polyesters amongst other fabrics. While finding an alternative, he came across Hemp fabrics that immediately and naturally appealed to him. That’s what gave birth to Weaving Vibes.

At Weaving Vibes their focus is on innovation and manufacturing new exciting sustainable fabrics on a Made-To-Order basis with the least impact on the environment during manufacturing and final disposal too. Weaving vibes is in the business of manufacturing hemp and hemp blended fabrics for its client based on their exact requirement. They have an in-house capacity to manufacture 1,80,000 meters/month of Hemp fabrics.

They also offer special finishes of Hemp fabrics such as Water repellent and Stain Repellent Hemp fabric, Wrinkle-free Hemp fabric etc, Hemp Dyed Fabrics (AZO-free dye). They also offer to print on hemp fabrics such as Screen Printing and Digital Printing. They also do Tie-Dye on Hemp fabrics and Eco-Print(using Leaves and Flowers) on Hemp Fabric. Manufacturing Hemp fabrics is his passion that has turned into a fruitful business.
