Touching our lives in almost all the
spheres, technical textiles have also made their foray in the clothing and
shoe industry. Aimed at fashion designers, developers as well as shoe and
clothing manufacturers, this category of smart textiles is clubbed under the
head “CLOTHTECH”
Broadly defined, CLOTHTECH includes technical components of clothing (such as breathable membranes), shoe reinforcement & construction as well as rainwear. They are recognized for some of their important properties like high resistance to temperature, pressure and other extreme conditions, high absorbency, durability and water proof nature.
From industries like sports, defense and aviation to chemical and fire fighting, they are making their presence almost across all segments as they are extensively used for making special purpose clothes and footwear.
