Home textile catalogues
Bed linen, curtains, table linen and throws organised by collection, fabric, size and finish, with clear photographs and a buyer enquiry route.
Thinakaran Manokaran is a web developer based in Thanjavur, about 100 km from Karur. He builds catalogue and export websites for Karur’s home textile units, bus body manufacturers and local businesses, structured for buyers who compare suppliers online before making contact.
Karur sells to the world from a town in central Tamil Nadu. A buyer in Europe or the Gulf will look at a supplier’s website before replying to an email, and a thin brochure site is often the reason a capable manufacturer does not get a second message.
For Karur manufacturers and exporters who need a product catalogue that reads as credible to an overseas buyer, without hiring an agency in Chennai.
Bed linen, curtains, table linen and throws organised by collection, fabric, size and finish, with clear photographs and a buyer enquiry route.
Body types, specifications, capacity and completed-project photographs, aimed at fleet buyers rather than individual consumers.
Certifications, compliance, packaging and shipping terms presented plainly, so a buyer can qualify the supplier without a long email chain.
Capacity, machinery, lead times and quality process. Buyers want to know whether the unit can handle their volume before they ask for samples.
A catalogue or service list for Karur customers, with WhatsApp ordering and a correct map location.
Admissions, courses and notices for families in and around the town, on a site the office can update.
The buyer is usually a business, not a shopper. That changes everything about the site: no cart, no urgency banners, no consumer checkout. Instead, a buyer needs the product range, the specification, the minimum order, the lead time, the certifications and a named contact. Those are the pages that generate enquiries.
Photography is the hardest part and the most valuable. Home textiles are bought on colour, texture and drape, and a flat, badly lit photograph makes a good product look cheap. The build assumes consistent product photography, and a shooting guide is part of the handover so the catalogue does not degrade as new collections arrive.
Karur is also a genuinely bilingual market. The unit owner and staff work in Tamil, while the buyer reads English. The site needs an English catalogue for trade and a Tamil presence for local credibility and recruitment. Treating one as a translation of the other produces a worse version of both.
These are the questions a buyer answers from the website before they ever reply to an email. Missing any one of them costs enquiries.
What exactly do you make, and in what sizes, fabrics or specifications?
Can you handle our volume, and what is the lead time?
Which certifications and compliance standards do you hold?
What does the packaging look like, and can it be private-labelled?
Where is the unit, and how does goods leave the country?
Who do we contact, and is there a named person rather than a generic inbox?
Can we see the product at a consistent scale and in real installations?
A short call or WhatsApp exchange about what the business does, who the site is for and what a successful month looks like. No charge, and no obligation to continue.
You get a fixed scope, a milestone plan, a timeline and the full price in writing before any work starts. Anything outside the scope is quoted separately, in advance.
Layouts first, then the build. You see a working preview on a real URL and review it on your own phone, so decisions are made on the actual site rather than on a picture.
The site goes live on your own hosting and domain, with analytics and search indexing configured. You receive the source code, the account access and a walkthrough.
A support window covers fixes after go-live. Ongoing maintenance, content changes and further features are optional and priced separately, never bundled silently.
An export catalogue with specifications and certifications is a larger project than a five-page local site. The quote reflects that structure.
Collections, fabrics, sizes, finishes and variants multiply the data. A searchable catalogue with filters is a different build from a gallery.
Consistent product photography is essential for textiles. Shooting or sourcing it is a separate, meaningful part of the budget.
Certifications, compliance pages and downloadable specifications need accurate content and a structure that can be kept current.
English for trade buyers and Tamil for local use is two sets of content. Both are legitimate; neither should be machine translation.
Every quote is written for the project in front of me. You get the scope, the milestones, the timeline and the full price before work starts - no hourly surprises and no hidden line items. Send your requirements and the quote comes back free, with no obligation to proceed.
Yes. It is structured around what an overseas buyer needs: collections, fabric and size options, finishes, certifications, packaging, lead time and a named contact. It is a trade catalogue, not a consumer store with a cart.
Yes. Body types, specifications, capacity and completed-project photographs are structured for fleet buyers. The site is built to answer technical questions before a buyer calls, rather than to look decorative.
It will not replace trade fairs, agents or email outreach. What it does is remove the reasons a buyer who has already heard of you would hesitate - missing specifications, no certifications, no named contact. That is a real and measurable improvement, but nobody can promise enquiries.
Yes. English is the trade catalogue; Tamil serves local customers, staff and recruitment. They are built as separate pages with proper language alternates, not as a translation toggle.
About 100 km by road. Delivery is remote with a shared preview URL, and a meeting in Karur or Thanjavur can be arranged when a project needs one - for example a photography brief or a launch walkthrough.
There is no hard limit, but the work grows with the range. A few dozen products with good photography can be managed directly. Hundreds need categories, filters, bulk import and a clear process for adding each new collection.
