DUBLIN, Dec 8, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Technical Textiles Market 2016-2020" report to their offering.

The report forecasts the global technical textiles market to grow at a CAGR of 4.04% during the period 2016-2020.

The report has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers the market landscape and its growth prospects over the coming years. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.

One of latest trends in the market is inclination toward disposable fabrics in healthcare applications. Hospital-associated infections have been a serious concern for healthcare workers, patients, and medical professionals. To reduce the incidence of such infections, the use of disposable articles, including clothing, is gaining prominence in healthcare facilities, especially in the developed regions. Disposable drapes, surgical gowns, and instrument wraps are being manufactured. Further, properties such as fluid resistance, high temperature resistance, and tear resistance can be conferred to the textile as per the requirement.

According to the report, one of the primary drivers in the market is technical textiles in electronics. Electronic textiles are fabrics embedded with digital components. These textiles offer physical elasticity and characteristic size that cannot be achieved with other prevailing electronic manufacturing techniques. Microelectronic components can also be incorporated into the fabric; they are less visible and vulnerable to tangling from adjacent objects. These novel materials are opening potential applications in commercial products, especially communication, healthcare, protection, and wearable technology applications. These textiles are used for performance purposes, which include the monitoring of vital signs, sports training data acquisition, insulation against extreme radiations, communication, and regaining lost sensory perception.
