 CHAPTER - I

INTRODUCTION

1.1 TEXTILE

Textile Is an umbrella term that

includes various fiber-based materials,
including fibers, yarns, filaments, threads,
different fabric types, etc. At first, the
word "textiles" only referred to woven
fabrics. However, weaving is not the only
manufacturing method, and many other
methods were later developed to form textile structures based on their intended
use. Knitting and non-woven are other popular types of fabric manufacturing. In the
contemporary world, textiles satisfy the material needs for versatile applications, from simple
daily clothing to bulletproof jackets, spacesuits, and doctor's gowns.

Textiles are divided into two groups: consumer textiles for domestic purposes
and technical textiles. In consumer textiles, aesthetics and comfort are the most important
factors, while in technical textiles, functional properties are the priority. Geotextiles, industrial
textiles, medical textiles, and many other areas are examples of technical textiles,
whereas clothing and furnishings are examples of consumer textiles. Each component of a
textile product, including fiber, yarn, fabric, processing, and finishing, affects the final product.
Components may vary among various textile products as they are selected based on their fitness
for purpose

1.2 TEXTILE INDUSTRY

The textile industry is primarily concerned with the design, production and
distribution of textiles: yarn, cloth and clothing. The raw material may be natural, or synthetic
using products of the chemical industry.The Indian textile industry holds a prominent position
globally, deeply rooted in the country's history, culture. The textile industry plays a crucial role
in global manufacturing, encompassing the production of fibers, yarns, fabrics, and finished
textile products used in clothing, household goods, and industrial applications.
1
 The textile industry is vast and diverse, involving the production of natural fibers (like
cotton, wool, silk) and synthetic fibers (such as polyester, nylon).It includes processes like
spinning (converting fibers into yarn), weaving or knitting (creating fabrics), dyeing and
finishing (coloring and treating fabrics), and manufacturing of final products

It contributes significantly to GDP of many countries, especially in developing nations

where textile manufacturing is a major industry. Historically, textile production has been
criticized for its environmental impact due to water and chemical use, and waste generation.
Increasing focus on sustainability with innovations in eco-friendly fibers, recycling
technologies, and cleaner production methods.

Automation and digitalization are transforming the industry, improving efficiency in

manufacturing processes and reducing production costs. Development of smart textiles (e-
textiles) integrating electronics for various applications like healthcare, sports, and fashion.
Shifts in consumer preferences towards sustainable and ethically produced textiles . Growing
demand for technical textiles used in industries like automotive, healthcare, and construction.

According to the Ministry of Textiles, the share of textiles in total exports during April–
July 2010 was 11.04%. During 2009–2010, the Indian textile industry was pegged at US$55
billion, 64% of which services domestic demand. In 2010, there were 2,500 textile weaving
factories and 4,135 textile finishing factories in all of India. According to AT Kearney's 'Retail
Apparel Index', India was ranked as the fourth most promising market for apparel retailers in
2009.

India is first in global jute production and shares 63% of the global textile and garment
market. India is second in global textile manufacturing and also second in silk and cotton
production. 100% FDI is allowed via automatic route in textile sector. Rieter,
Trutzschler, Saurer, Soktas, Zambiati, Bilsar, Monti, CMT, E-land, Nisshinbo, Marks &
Spencer, Zara, Promod, Benetton, and Levi's are some of the foreign textile companies
invested or working in India.

3
 Cities like Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Surat, Coimbatore, and Ludhiana are major textile
manufacturing centers. The textile industry is a major source of employment, particularly for
rural and semi-skilled labor. It provides livelihoods to millions of weavers, artisans, and
workers across the country .The industry has seen advancements in machinery and technology,
particularly in the organized sector, enhancing productivity and quality. There is increasing
adoption of automation and digital technologies in textile manufacturing processes.

1.4 TEXTILE MARKET SIZE

Source: Make In India, New Articles, Ministry Of Textiles, India.

The market for Indian textiles and apparel is projected to grow at a 10% CAGR to reach
US$ 350 billion by 2030. Moreover, India is the world's 3rd largest exporter of Textiles and
Apparel. India ranks among the top five global exporters in several textile categories, with
exports expected to reach US$ 100 billion.

The textiles and apparel industry contributes 2.3% to the country’s GDP, 13% to
industrial production and 12% to exports. The textile industry in India is predicted to double
its contribution to the GDP, rising from 2.3% to approximately 5% by the end of this decade.

The Manufacturing of Textiles Index for the month of December 2023 is 112.4.Global apparel
market is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 8% to reach US$ 2.37 trillion by 2030 and
the Global Textile & Apparel trade is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4% to reach US$ 1.2
trillion by 2030.

4
 The Indian Technical Textile market has a huge potential of a 10% growth rate,
increased penetration level of 9-10% and is the 5th largest technical textiles market in the
world. India’s sportech industry is estimated around US$ 1.17 million in 2022-23.

1.5 FABRIC MANUFACTURING PROCESS

Also known as weaving, the

fabric manufacturing process is the next
step in textile production. Here, yarn is
taken from one machine and transferred
to another machine in order to create a
length of fabric.

This process is completed using

machines that turn yarn into lengths,
which are then fed onto a loom with different types of colors or threads on specific sections
called harnesses.

The warp (lengths) must be fitted precisely between the two sides of the heddles before the
loom is turned on and the weaving process begins. Once a length of textile fabric has been
created, it is removed from the looms and then sewn together to create a finished product.

There are four types of fabrics that are produced in the garments industry. These are:

 Woven fabric

 Knit fabric

 Nonwoven fabric

 Braided fabric

Yarns may undergo additional processes like doubling (combining two or more yarns),
twisting (increasing yarn strength and texture), and winding onto cones or spools for
subsequent processes. Interlacing of warp (lengthwise) and weft (crosswise) yarns on a loom
to create woven fabrics like denim or cotton shirting. Interlocking of yarn loops to form
knitted fabrics like jerseys or sweaters. Methods include circular knitting, flat knitting, and
warp knitting.

1.7 YARN MANUFACTURING

The fiber is converted into

yarn under the yarn manufacturing process.
This is used for natural fabrics which are
made from animal-based and plant-based
because these materials have impurities in
them and the process of yarn
manufacturing removes them. The process
of spinning is included under this.

Conventional fabrics like woven, knitted are made with the help of yarn manufacturing process.
The fibers are first converted into yarn and then the yarn is turned into fabrics. Cotton, nylon,
woolen, and polyester are made from yarn.

1.8 GARMENT MANUFACTURING

Garment design is an art and

manufacturing is the technology and its
combination forms garment manufacturing.
Several advancements have been seen in
garment manufacturing such as designing
technology, computer-aided
manufacturing, and other developments.

Material designing and selection are very important for garment manufacturing;
another thing that is important for garment manufacturing is the quality of the fabric.The older
method of garment manufacturing that is to cut the fabric and then sew it together is still in use.
Now the machines to sew the fabrics together have developed.

1.9 TECHNICAL TEXTILE

Technical textile is a method to produce textile products which are not used for fashion
or any aesthetic needs. In developed countries, technical textiles has higher consumption and
it is estimated that its consumption will increase in the future.
