Smart Textile Market 2018 | Global Industry Share, Segments & Key Drivers, 2023

Market Overview:

Smart Textiles, also known as smart clothing and smart garments, are the fabrics which easily accommodates battery, light, smart chips, digital components, and other electronics. These type of fabrics are designed and developed with the implementation of advanced technologies, which add to the value of such clothing.  The Smart Textiles are of two major types depending on the function they perform, performance enhancing, and aesthetic. The performance enhancing the type of Smart Textiles are mainly used in sports, athletic and military applications, wherein they control body weight and temperature, external vibrations, and wind resistance to improve the overall performance of an athlete.  The aesthetic smart fabrics are the ones which light up and change color, absorbs energy from the environment by harnessing vibrations, heat, light, and sound by reacting with them. Some other smart fabrics are also designed to guard the body and skin against harmful radiations, natural hazards, and effects of space during space travel.

The Smart Textile Market has ability to enhance and add value to fabrics to meet the need of various applications. The demand for lightweight and durable fabrics in numerous applications starting from textile, sports, automotive to defense and space has witnessed upward trend during the past few years and is anticipated to be the same over the forecast period. According to some leading research institutes in the world, the global aerospace composite or core material market may register nearly 40 billion USD by expanding at a growth rate of around 9% till the end of 2023. This is expected to boost demand for the smart fabrics in the manufacturing aerospace composites.

Smart Textile Market 2018: Share, Competitor Strategy, Industry Trends by Forecast to 2023

Market Overview
Smart Textiles are also known as smart clothing or smart garments. They are the fabrics, which have digital components such as light, battery, smart chips, and other small electronic devices fitted into it. Such fabrics are innovatively designed and engineered to meet the requirements of major end user such as military, sports, textile, automotive, and healthcare. Based on the functioning of the fabric, there are two major types of the smart textiles namely: performance enhancing and aesthetic. The performance enhancing is a type of smart textiles, which is mainly used in athletic, sports and military applications. They control body temperature and weight, wind drag and external vibrations to improve the performance of an athlete.  On the other hand, the aesthetic smart fabrics light up or change color, can absorbs energy from environment by harnessing ambient light, wind vibrations, and heat by reacting with them. As per some leading research institutes, the Global Aerospace Core Material Market is estimated to reach nearly USD 40 billion by the end of 2023,  growing at a considerable growth rate of around 9% . This, in turn, is likely to boost demand for the smart fabrics in manufacturing aerospace composites during the review period.
