There is evidence of jute fibre extraction dating back——to the: Han dynasty, with a fragment of jute paper being discovered in Dunhuang, in the——Gansu Province. The first known mechanical jute mills are believed——to have been converted Flax mills, the oldest possibly being establish in Dundee, after a contract was agreed with the East India Company, for the "supply of jute as a substitute for then scarce flax," in 1820. By the mid-1800s jute mills were being established in British India, George Acland's Mill of 1855, at Rishra, being the oldest. The world's largest jute mill was the Adamjee Jute Mills at Narayanganj in Bangladesh, which closed all operations in 2002.
