Haelixa, a global leader in DNA-based product traceability, has implemented its advanced fibre-marking technology at Nahar Spinning Mills Ltd. in Lalru, Punjab. The deployment introduces forensic-level supply chain verification into one of India’s largest textile clusters, ensuring every yarn spun carries an invisible DNA marker that confirms its true origin.

The innovative system allows cotton to be physically tagged during spinning through a DNA-based spray that remains embedded through all subsequent manufacturing processes. This technology provides an unalterable signature that can be scientifically verified, enabling brands and manufacturers to validate fibre authenticity beyond conventional documentation.

For Indian cotton producers and global apparel brands, the initiative represents a major step toward full material transparency and compliance with global traceability standards. The ability to prove fibre origin supports responsible sourcing commitments and protects against cotton fraud, which continues to challenge global supply chains.

Nahar Spinning Mills, known for its integrated textile operations and export footprint, becomes one of the early adopters of forensic traceability in India’s cotton value chain. The partnership aligns with India’s growing emphasis on sustainable manufacturing and digital verification systems that strengthen credibility in global markets.

Haelixa’s technology bridges the gap between trust and proof, marking a pivotal advancement for the textile sector as it transitions toward circular, transparent, and ethically verifiable production systems.
