1.INTRODUCTION :
Textiles consist of materials primarily formed from fibers, which serve as their fundamental components. These fibers can originate from natural sources such as cotton, wool, silk, or flax, or they may be synthetic, including polyester, nylon, or acrylic. Textiles play a crucial role in our daily lives, harmoniously combining style and comfort, and infusing a sense of everyday enchantment into our existence.
The Indian textile industry stands as one of the largest and most significant sectors within the economy, contributing notably to output, foreign exchange earnings, and employment opportunities in the country. It is anticipated that the textile industry will demonstrate robust quarterly performance, driven by an increase in export demand and higher production volumes.
Technical textiles have garnered significant interest; however, the application of fibers, yarns, and fabrics beyond clothing and upholstery is not a recent development. This practice is not solely associated with the advent of contemporary synthetic fibers and textiles. For centuries, natural fibers such as cotton, flax, jute, and sisal have been utilized in various applications, including tents, tarpaulins, ropes, sailcloth, and sacks. Historical evidence indicates that woven fabrics and meshes were employed in Roman times and earlier to stabilize marshy terrain for road construction, representing early instances of what we now refer to as geotextiles and geogrids.
protective textile products has steadily increased over the past few decades. This growth is primarily driven by a heightened focus on minimizing occupational hazards and ensuring the health, safety, and protection of workers. Ongoing updates and advancements in legislation, government policies, standards, and organizational codes have motivated both companies and individuals to implement responsible measures and equipment aimed at preventing hazardous incidents and accidents in the workplace. As a result, various personal protective equipment (PPE) and clothing are increasingly becoming standard practice within the industry. This rising demand has led to significant consumption of protective materials and a surge in innovations related to protective textile products.
