A. Brief Introduction of Kashmir Polyfill (Pvt) Ltd.
Kashmir Polyfill is a medium‑sized family‑owned business based in Lahore, established in 2008. The company specializes in manufacturing polyester filling materials for pillows, sofa cushions, and car seat pads, supplying domestic upholstery workshops and bedding brands across Punjab. With 35 employees and an annual fiber consumption of approximately 800 metric tons, Kashmir Polyfill has built a reputation for reliable, cost‑effective filling solutions. The company was looking to upgrade its product range by introducing higher‑resilience fibers for premium cushions and heavier pillows.
B. Products Supplied

| 15D×64mm HCS Virgin Polyester Staple Fiber | 15 denier, 64mm cut length, hollow, 3D crimp, siliconized, semi‑dull, raw white, virgin grade | Heavy‑duty cushion core and mattress topper support layer – offers extra firmness and shape retention for high‑traffic furniture and long‑lasting pillows |

D. Key Support Provided
-
Technical recommendation: The buyer initially wanted to use 7D only for both outer filling and core. We suggested a two‑layer system: 7D for the soft outer wrap, 15D for the firm inner core. Sample cushions produced with this method showed 30% less compression after 2 weeks of testing, and the buyer adopted the proposal immediately.
-
Customization: Fiber oil content was reduced to 0.10% for the 7D grade to improve workability in Kashmir‘s low‑pressure opening machine. Bale weight was set at 200kg (instead of standard 250kg) to ease manual handling in their small warehouse.
-
Certifications: OEKO‑TEX Standard 100 (Class I) was provided for both grades, plus a supplier declaration confirming no heavy metals or restricted phthalates – a key requirement for their export‑oriented sofa cushion customers.
-
Logistical support: Two 20GP containers were shipped on the same vessel to avoid separate delivery delays. We arranged direct trucking from Karachi port to the buyer‘s warehouse in Lahore (approx. 1,200 km) and provided full customs clearance documentation, including Pakistan’s PSF import duties and sales tax calculation sheets.
E. Customer Feedback
After receiving the first shipment and completing production trials, the owner of Kashmir Polyfill sent the following feedback via WhatsApp:
“The 7D fiber is very consistent – no neps and very good resilience. The 15D is firm but still soft on the surface. Our customers like the new ‘firm core’ pillow. We will definitely order again. Thank you for the professional advice and smooth delivery.”
– Mr. Kashif Ali, Owner, Kashmir Polyfill (Pvt) Ltd.
The buyer has already confirmed a repeat order for August 2026, increasing the quantity to 15MT of 7D and 15MT of 15D (two 20GP containers), and is also exploring recycled HCS options for a new eco‑friendly product line.
