Paradise Textiles, the material science and innovation division of Alpine Group, has announced a US$102 million investment in a new integrated fabric manufacturing facility in Egypt. Located in Alexandria’s Amreya Public Free Zone, the project aims to establish a new benchmark for sustainable textile manufacturing while strengthening Egypt’s position as a global sourcing destination for performance apparel.
New Facility to Boost Sustainable Textile Production
The project is backed by a US$72 million financing agreement with Commercial International Bank> (CIB), demonstrating strong financial support for Paradise Textiles’ long-term manufacturing strategy.
Designed with sustainability at its core, the facility will utilize advanced low-impact production technologies, energy-efficient machinery, and integrated environmental management systems to reduce water consumption, energy use, and overall environmental impact.Continuous monitoring systems will help optimize production efficiency while supporting compliance with international sustainability standards.
Focus on Performance Fabrics for Global Brands
The integrated manufacturing plant will specialize in high-performance polyester and synthetic fabrics used in activewear and sportswear for leading international brands, particularly those serving the United States and European markets.
The investment is expected to create approximately 1,200 new jobs over the next two years while enhancing Egypt’s growing reputation as a competitive textile manufacturing hub.Operations are scheduled to begin in the third quarter of 2026.

Strategic Location Supports Global Sourcing
The investment comes as global apparel brands continue diversifying their sourcing strategies in response to geopolitical uncertainty, changing tariff policies, and stricter sustainability regulations.
Egypt’s preferential access to the U.S. market through the Qualifying Industrial Zones agreement, combined with its geographic proximity to Europe, makes the country an increasingly attractive manufacturing base for export-oriented textile production.The new facility will also become the first textile plant to install Regen®, the world’s first microfiber filtration system specifically designed for textile manufacturing, helping reduce microfiber emissions at the source.
Vertical Integration to Improve Speed and Quality
Located adjacent to Alpine Group’s Alex Apparels manufacturing hub, the new facility will strengthen the company’s vertically integrated supply chain by bringing fabric development and garment manufacturing together in one location.This closer integration is expected to improve speed-to-market, strengthen quality control, increase supply chain transparency, and support faster product development for global apparel brands.
Of the total US$102 million investment, US$72 million will be financed by CIB in three phases. The first US$35.5 million tranche has already been released, with additional funding scheduled according to construction milestones.Commenting on the investment, Ehab Mohi said the new facility will improve lead times, strengthen technical collaboration, and deliver more agile, performance-driven manufacturing for international activewear and sportswear brands.
Ashok Mahtani added that the project reflects Alpine Group’s long-term vision of strengthening vertical integration, advancing fabric innovation, and building responsible manufacturing ecosystems that meet the evolving sustainability expectations of global fashion brands.
