Our Products

Barakat Cotton produces bleached absorbent cotton using hydrogen peroxide under superior quality control standards, ensuring our products meet or exceed total hygienic protection from start to finish. We follow the high standards set forth by the world’s medical cotton industry. Our plant has an inhouse laboratory, with state-of-the-art testing equipment and highly skilled technicians with many years of experience in their field.

Samples taken from each batch of production are tested in our laboratory for the following: humidity, foreign fiber (fluorescence), sinking time, water absorbency, active surface substance, fiber length, micronaire, pH and texture. In addition, tests on ether-soluble substances, water-soluble substances, sulphated ash, neps, extractable colouring matter and viscosity are also performed. Tested samples taken from each batch are then stored in our special sample room as evidence for minimum period of 4 months.

All raw materials - comber noil and chemicals - arriving at the plant are also tested at our laboratory for full conformity with our standards. Our purchase contracts with chemicals such as Pulcra, United Initiators, Dow Chemicals ensure quality and continuity in our production.

Our products can be made per customer specifications, customized for their planned end-use. Finished products are made ready by packing them into polypropylene bales.
