Mass Production

This image is an example of mass production within the textile industry,                                               I have chosen to research mass production as it is                                                                                     what interests me the most.                                                                                                                      Mass production has its good and bad side, the good side                                                                    being you can manufacturer big amounts of items,                                                                               so for example this could mean fabric or prints etc.                                                                           mass production became prominent in the 1900s [1]                                                                      It also works out better for the main boss of the company for                                                which the products are being made                                                                                                  As it will be cheaper for them.                                                                                                                It also works out to be less expensive by making the                                                                            product in larger amounts. But a disadvantage might be                                                                     that due to the quickness of making the products,                                                                                                                                                                not every product will always be the same.                                                                                  Large quantities, you cannot check for                                                                                       accuracy until several have been made[2].                                                                           An advantage is that it does give a person a job                                                                   and a wage but they might not get paid                                                                               very well, which is a disadvantage.
