[The Need to have a Full time Textile Minister in India who is Qualified in Textiles,Technical Textiles & Non Woven Fabrics. Who has a Knowledge of everything in Textile Industry.]


Non-woven fabric production is a fascinating process that skips traditional weaving or knitting. Instead, fibers are directly bonded together using mechanical, thermal, or chemical methods. This makes non-woven fabrics faster and more cost-effective to produce compared to textilesKey Steps in N on-Woven Fabric Manufacturing.
Web Formation.
Fibers are arranged into a web using dry-laid, wet-laid, or polymer-laid techniques.
Web Bonding
The fiber web is bonded using methods like thermal bonding, chemical bonding, or mechanical entanglement.
Fabric Finishing.
–The final fabric undergoes treatments to enhance properties like strength, durability, and functionality.
Applications in Technical Textiles
Non-woven fabrics are widely used in technical textilesfor applications such as:

Medical textiles (surgical masks, gowns, wound dressings) Geotextiles (road construction, erosion control) Filtration (air and water filters) Automotive textiles (upholstery, insulation) Agricultural textiles (crop covers, plant protection)


India's non-woven fabric production was estimated to be around 3.54 lakh metric tons in FY16, with a CAGR of ~13% from 2011-2016.
Gujarat is the hub for non-woven textile production, accounting for 45% of India's total output.
In Europe, non-woven consumption was 2.0 million tons in 2013,with projections reaching 2.5 million tons by 2018 Europe held a 25.2% market share in 2013.

What states in India are leading in non-woven fabric production?
India's non-woven fabric production is concentrated in several key states, with Gujarat l eading the way. Gujarat accounts for a significant portion of India's total output, thanks to its strong textile infrastructure and manufacturing hubs. Other states contributing to non-woven fabric production include Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Haryana, and Punja>b, which have well-established textile industries and access to raw materials.
Specific manufacturers or market trends in these states?
Here are some major non-woven fabric manufacturers across Gujarat, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Haryana, and Punjab:

Gujarat: (Jamnagar), (Rajkot)

Maharashtra: (Pune), Tamil Nadu: (Madurai) Haryana: (Gurgaon) Punjab: (Rajkot)
These companies specialize in various applications, including medical textiles, filtration, and industrial use.

What are the current market trends in non-woven fabrics?
The non-woven fabric industry is evolving rapidly,with several key trends shaping its future:Sustainability Focus – There's a growing demand for biodegradable, recyclable, and compostable non-woven fabrics Technological Advancements – Innovations in manufacturing processes are improving fabric quality, strength, and efficiency
Smart Non-Woven Fabrics – Some fabrics are now embedded with advanced functionalities, such as antimicrobial properties and enhanced durabilityExpanding Applications – Non-woven fabrics are increasingly used in automotive, filtration, and even fashion industries.
Market Growth – The global non-woven fabric market is projected to reach USD 36.3 billion by 2034, growing at a CAGR of 1.9%
Asia-Pacific Dominance – The region, particularly China and India, is leading in production and consumption due to rising demand in healthcare, construction, and automotive sectors.

India's Textile Industry is sufering from Textile Policy who is responsible is it the Govt, is it the Bueauocrats, is it the politics of Textile Mill owners, is it the Tax structure on the Industries, rulers of Big Industries, is it the Babu,s running the Industry which is under a part time Textile Minister who comes and goes periodically not knowing the look of Textile Industry inside,not qualified in Textiles,who of course is a politician.
India's textile industry is facing several challenges, and the reasons behind its struggles are complex. Some key factors contributing to the industry's difficulties include:
Policy Uncertainty:
The absence of a consistent and updated textile policy has led to uncertainty in investment and growth.
Raw Material Costs: – Fluctuations in cotton and synthetic fiber prices, along with high import duties, have made Indian textiles less competitive globally
Infrastructure Bottlenecks: Inefficiencies in logistics and supply chains have slowed down production and exports.
Global Competition: Countries like Bangladesh and Vietnam have lower labor costs and better trade agreements, making them more competitive.
Taxation Issues – The impact of GST and other tax structures has affected profitability for textile manufacturers
Leadership & Governance –
Frequent changes in leadership and lack of specialized knowledge in textile policy-making have contributed to inconsistent decision-making.
The industry requires a strategic overhaul, including better policy frameworks, investment in technology, and stronger global trade positioning.
What is the potential solutions or government initiatives?.

Copilot said:

India's government has launched several initiatives to support the textile industry and address its challenges. Some key solutions and programs include:


PM MITRA Parks – Establishing large-scale textile parks with world-class infrastructure to boost investment and employment

Production Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme – Encouraging large-scale manufacturing in man-made fibers, apparel, and technical textiles.
National Technical Textiles Mission (NTTM)** – Promoting research, innovation, and market expansion for technical textiles.
BLOGER -
There was no Technical Head but a Beaurocrat.
Samarth Scheme – Providing skill development programs to enhance workforce capabilities in the textile sector.
Amended Technology Upgradation Fund Scheme (ATUFS) – Supporting modernization and technology adoption in textile manufacturing.
Export Support & Rebate Schemes – Offering financial incentives to boost textile exports and improve global competitiveness.
These initiatives aim to modernize infrastructure, attract investments, create jobs, and strengthen India's position in the global textile market. Would you like insights into how these programs are impacting the industry? 1krishijagran.comkrishijagran.com

India's government initiatives have had a significant impact on the textile industry, driving modernization, investment, and global competitiveness. Here are some key effects:
Infrastructure Development.The PM MITRA Parks are creating large-scale industrial ecosystems,attracting investments and generating employment.
Boosting Production & Exports. The Production Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme has encouraged large-scale manufacturing, particularly in man-made fibers and technical textiles, improving India's global market position.
Skill Development.
Programs like Samarth have enhanced workforce capabilities, ensuring a skilled labor force for the growing industry.
Technology & Innovation –
The National Technical Textiles Mission (NTTM)* has promoted research and innovation, helping India compete in high-tech textile segments.
Financial Support – Various export incentives and modernization schemes have helped textile businesses upgrade their operations and expand globally.
Despite these efforts, challenges remain, including raw material costs, global competition, and policy uncertainties.
Thank you Copilot for your Help.
