MatruOS for a rag sorter and importer
Set up the way a rag sorter and importer runs: margin between mixed waste or rag prices and the prices of sorted grades sold to recycling mills, wiping cloth and stuffing buyers; re-export of wearable grades from SEZ units. Routines, workflows, registers, licences and an AI team that knows the work are ready when you sign up.

What this solves
What a rag sorter and importer deals with today, and what MatruOS sets up for it
Today
Lots are bought without knowing what grades they will yield. Yield by grade is not weighed lot by lot, so poor suppliers keep getting orders.
In MatruOS
MatruOS sets up 8 routines, 2 workflows, 4 registers and 9 licences for a rag sorter and importer, with an AI team that reads your own records and prepares the work.
What changes
The right person is reminded at the right time, approvals wait for whoever decides, and every licence has a renewal reminder. Anything that sends, pays, signs, files or deletes waits for a person's approval.
Where you sit
MatruOS starts from how your business earns
Who you sell to, who you buy from, how credit moves and where you sit in the chain decide how your screens, reminders and reports are set up.
- garment factory waste or imported rags
- sorter
- recycling mill
- blanket, durrie or mop maker
Your suppliers
- Garment and knitting factories (cuttings)
- Waste traders and kabadiwalas
- Overseas suppliers of mutilated rags
- Customs brokers and transporters
Credit and cash
Factory waste bought cash or 7 days; imports paid by advance or at sight; mills pay 15-45 days; sorters paid weekly
Cash goes out for lots and imports weeks before mills pay; one bad lot with poor yield wipes out a month's margin
