The textile industry has been of great importance to the Brazilian economy since the 18th century, serving as a complement to other industries for both large, medium, and small companies. This industry is currently responsible for generating large revenues, in 2023 raising US$ 956 million in exports, registering a turnover of R$ 193.2 billion in 2022 with an investment of R$ 4.6 billion. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the processes of this industry, so that there is the possibility of generating accurate quantitative data and thus justifying the investment in its sectors. Therefore, this work aims to monitor the production process of a Brazilian company in the textile sector, through statistical process control (SPC) together with quality tools, aiming to present the current scenario of the process that is being used by the company and generating an overview of the manufacturing sectors studied.
