Artistic Denim Mills Limited (ADML), a leading name in Pakistan’s textile industry, has announced the commissioning of a 2.32MW solar power facility to help mitigate rising fuel costs and ensure a more sustainable energy future for its operations, according to the company’s Annual Report for the year ended June 30, 2025.
The company, which specialises in manufacturing rope-dyed denim fabrics and yarn, is also in the process of installing an additional 2.57MW solar power project, which is expected to be completed by the first quarter of the financial year 2025-26.
“The economic importance of this project lies in the use of renewable energy, which reduces cost of power and thereby contributes to the bottom line while making the best use of the idle and unused rooftops,” the company said.
The move comes amid escalating fuel and energy prices that have been affecting profit margins across the textile sector, which remains a key driver of Pakistan’s economy.
The company said that its management is confident that these energy initiatives, supported by diversified operations and strong governance practices, will continue to create long-term value for shareholders.
Artistic Denim Mills said it also operates its own power generation plant that efficiently caters to the energy requirements of all its divisions including Recycling, Bleaching, Spinning, Weaving, and Garments production.
ADML highlighted that the textile sector is a vital contributor to the country’s GDP, employment, and export earnings. Despite facing these hurdles, the sector has shown resilience, though the company stressed that long-term sustainability and margin recovery will depend on urgent reforms, including the provision of affordable, uninterrupted energy, rationalization of input costs, faster refund processing, and a more business-friendly regulatory environment.
