Snapshot

IJIRA today is truly world-class – in size and sophistication, in research and resources, in capabilities and commitment. In fact, Indian Jute Industries’ Research Association (IJIRA) has been a pioneer, heralding the concept of Co-operative Research for industry, introduced for the first time in India, which was later adopted by other organized industries in India to set up their own R & D institutes. In the present day context, where jute is poised for enormous applications in both textile and non-textile areas IJIRA plays a lead role in keeping with the world trends and market. As the demand increased, IJIRA spread its tentacles to other parts of the country from time to time. At present, it has a regional centre at Guwahati (Assam), called the North East Regional Centre, Guwahati (NERC). The NERC has a Powerloom Service Centre under it.
