Product Standardization
Currently a wide range of product specifications are being manufactured for various jute products. Results in lack of planning of production, resulting in manufacturing delays. Also lack of standard specifications makes it difficult to control quality standards of finished goods in all cases (except for exporters who are quality conscious and buyers who demand quality certifications)
