Our story

  1. 2005

    Mohammad Khalid begins making sewing thread on a small scale.

  2. 2018

    Ihtesham Khalid joins, and Solid Tex is set up with its own winding and dyeing.

  3. Today

    A fully operational facility at Nadir Chowk, Gajjumatta, Ferozepur Road, where every order is dyed and wound to the customer's shade and standard. The plant runs on green energy, reflecting our care for the environment as much as for quality. Certified to OEKO-TEX Standard 100 and ISO 9001:2015, we supply export garment factories across Punjab.

What we stand for

Every factory deserves thread it can rely on, at a price that makes sense.

We are not trying to be the cheapest at any cost. We aim for the best price with better quality: thread that runs well at speed, survives the wash and matches the shade, delivered when your line needs it.

Our core is polyester sewing thread, from soft spun polyester to strong PolyCore for denim and workwear. We also supply filament, high tenacity and cotton thread.
