What is Textile Technology?

The Textile Technology course is one of the popular courses among Indian students eager to enter the textile industry. With the rise in consumerism in the fashion industry, the textile industry is growing at a rapid speed. To keep pace with the consumption rate, the industry requires new technology and techniques for better productivity.

Textile Technology course is one of the domains under engineering and focuses on introducing scientific techniques and processes related to a series of textile production. Students are taught about the field specialisations such as fibre manufacturing, fabric draping, textile colouring, and garment production.

Textile Technology course prepares students for the global textile field by providing the expert textile skills and dynamics related to both traditional and modern textile industry. The Textile Technology course combines the basic principles of numerous subjects including chemistry, physics, technical textile, textile technology, the science of colours, machinery designing, and operating. Aspirants deal with all the scientific processes and technologies related to fibre production.

Scope of Textile Technology in India and Abroad

The textile industry has always been a very crucial part of the Indian economy, and with the increasing consumerism, the supply-demand has increased multiple folds. Students pursuing Textile Technology courses have a very rewarding career as the industry is not only limited to simply the manufacturing of textile. Students can apply for the sector, such as fashion clothing, fibre manufacturing, garment colouring, and industrial machinery designing. As the demand for textile can never diminish, the scope of Textile Technology has been expanding for decades.

Today’s world has become fashion conscious regarding their clothing styles, and the never-ending cycle of consumerism has evolved numerous new textile concepts. Thus, the job prospects in the Textile Technology field have risen in India and abroad. With the required skills and creativity, aspirants can reach heights of success in Textile Technology fields, plus they have the chance of opening their venture and introducing new textile trends in the market.

The Textile Technology industry has also heavily contributed in the medical sector through synthetic fibres and nano spinning techniques. Some of the major contributions include artificial arteries, medical gowns, and dialysis machinery.
