Technical Textiles To Become Backbone Of Indian Economy: Giriraj Singh
Govt to set up Centres Of Excellence for technical textiles
India is set to become a global leader in technical textiles, said Union Minister for Textiles, Giriraj Singh, at a conference on the sector.
He said that the government is committed to supporting the growth of technical textiles in India and has taken several steps to boost the sector, including setting up Centres of Excellence for technical textiles and providing financial assistance to businesses.
Technical textiles are used in a wide range of applications, including healthcare, transportation, construction, and defence. They are often used in products that require high strength, durability, and resistance to chemicals and heat.
The global technical textiles market is estimated to be worth over $250 billion, and India is expected to account for a significant share of this market in the coming years.
The government's support for the technical textiles sector is expected to help India become a global leader in this field. The country has a strong textile industry and a large pool of skilled workers, which gives it a competitive advantage in the global market.
In addition to the government's support, the technical textiles sector is also benefiting from the growing demand for these products in India and around the world.
The demand for technical textiles is expected to grow in the coming years as these products are increasingly used in a wide range of applications. The government's support for the sector is expected to help India capitalize on this growing demand and become a global leader in technical textiles.
