Technical Textile Markets - Business and Market Analysis of Worldwide Trends in Fibres, Nonwovens, Technical Textiles and Functional Apparel
Textiles Intelligence
Four times a year, Technical Textile Markets provides an overview of the global man-made fibre, nonwoven and technical textile industries. It provides market data and analysis of new and established markets for technical textiles, and is essential reading for senior executives in (or supplying) the man-made fibre, nonwoven and technical textile sectors – as well as for those who are not involved in the industry on a day-to-day basis, but who need an authoritative source which helps them to quickly gain an understanding of the key issues facing the companies which are actively involved in this fast-growing sector.
High performance fibres and technical textiles represent two of the faster growing sectors of the global textile industry. Attracted by strong growth rates, many producers of apparel textiles are moving over to technical textiles as competition from low cost imports increases. Such competition can only intensify in the run-up to 2005 and beyond as the quotas which have protected traditional textile and clothing industries in advanced economies are phased out.
Technical textiles, based on high technology, are more 'import-proof' than conventional textiles and apparel. Also, there are great opportunities for high performance fibres and technical textile producers to gain a competitive edge and to earn higher margins through advanced technology. Traditional applications for high performance fibres and technical textiles include conveyor belts, tarpaulins, tyre cords and ropes. Producers are also manufacturing high-tech products for an increasingly wide range of industrial end uses. These include: static-free and lint-free textiles for clean rooms in microelectronics manufacturing; stronger but lighter materials for use in aerospace; flame retardant textiles; and filters for liquids and gases to meet environmental pressures.
However, as the markets for fashion and sports clothing have started to merge, high performance fibres and technical textiles are also meeting the demand for new materials created by changes in consumer 'lifestyle'. Furthermore, as leisure time increases, so does the demand for specialist sports goods, many of which are reinforced by high-tech materials. Sailing, windsurfing, ballooning and parachuting would not be possible without light and durable fibre-based materials.
Whether your business is in fibres, textiles or apparel production – or in one of the specialised end use sectors – Technical Textile Markets will help you to identify market trends and opportunities, and provide you with a comprehensive database from which to plan your future strategy.
Industries using technical textiles include: aerospace; agricultural, horticultural and forestry; automotive; building, construction and engineering; fashion and sports clothing; filtration, cleaning and other industrial; furniture, household textiles and floor coverings; geotextiles and civil engineering; medical and hygiene; packaging; protective clothing; sports and leisure; and transportation
