Global Smart Textile Market on Track to Dramatic Growth as Applications Abound


The textile industry has entered a new dimension by introducing the concept of smart textiles. These are fabrics that feature embedded electronics and digital components to boast an unprecedented array of functionalities. Smart textiles have been designed with the help of innovative technology, which provides added value to the wearer. The major reason for the rising popularity of smart textiles is that they have the ability to support wearable technology – a quality which traditional fabrics could not boast of. Smart textiles can conduct energy, communicate, and even self-heal in the event of damage.
