Introduction
Technical approach:
Technical textiles are textiles which fulfill technical requirements in
order to perform better (e.g. in order to meet technical standards).
The performance attributes of a technical textile outweigh any
aesthetic requirements.
Market approach:
Technical textiles offer solutions for the multi-faceted technical
demands of our society (e.g. environmental issues, personal security,
general security, health and well being).
* source: Euratex 'Working group for technical textiles'
The success of technical textiles is in most part due to the creativity,
innovation and versatility in woven, knitted and non woven fabrics,
with applications spanning an enormous range of end uses including
protective clothing, medical and insulation materials for buildings.
The technical textiles sector is one of the most innovative branches of
industry in the world, ranking as one of the five high-tech sectors with
the greatest potential for development. The global market for
technical textiles today is worth an estimated 97 billion Euros, where
Asia leads the world in terms of textile comsumption with 8.5 million
tons followed by the USA and Europe with 5.8 and 4.8 million tons
respectively.
At present the key areas for technical textiles are automotive 28%,
industry 18%, building 10%, protection 10% with the other 34% share
divided between medical, sport, packaging, agriculture, performance
clothing and home.
Important too for the huge economic potential offered by functional
technical textiles is their ability to combine with each other to create
ever new technical innovations: it is worth mentioning also that many
of these innovations are dependant on the high quality (and often
high value) of raw materials used.
The industry places much emphasis on its diversification in research
to discover, promote and implement innovation as the driving force of
growth.
The United Kingdom is seen as a world leader in the field of technical
textiles.

A key area for technical textiles that adds value in many ways, both
obvious and hidden.
Technologies include waterproof, breathable, flame retardant, antistatic, high visibility, rot-proof, anti-bacterial, antifungal, antimicrobial, noise reduction, chemical rot, low-friction,
UV protection - the list goes on. Additional comfort is also an
important element. Bonded textiles can join different textiles with
special properties and compositions together or simply attach one
product to another.

This area of technical textiles covers fabric end uses for the police
and fire brigade, armed forces, construction workers, air and sea
rescue teams. Fabric finishes are key in this sector as are particular
fibre properties, both combining to offer a huge range of protection
properties such as flame retardant, cut-proof, dangerous chemical
proof, protection against UV rays, and thermal
New on the market is a type of modified acrylic fibre that is not only
flame, heat, UV and solvent resistant but also impervious to acid and
bases. Such fibres and fabrics are not only suitable for protective
garments but also areas such as plasterboard for buildings or textile
