The development of new technologies such as nanotechnology and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology is attributed to the development of the smart textiles market. Similarly, the decreasing manufacturing costs of electronics is anticipated to boost the smart textiles market in the upcoming years. Innovative intelligent fabric with the ability to generate power to light clothes was invented in Portugal by the Center of Nanotechnology and Smart Materials (CeNTI). Such innovations prove to create new opportunities for smart textile markets in the future.
The smart textile market is broadly divided into different segmentation by product, end-use, and functionality. It is anticipated that market share will be transferred from passive to very smart and active fabrics in the upcoming years. In 2018, passive fabrics held the largest market share in the product segment due to its low prices and user-friendly uses. However, very smart fabrics are anticipated to get popular in the upcoming years due to its smart functions such as the capability to react and update its behavior depending upon the given circumstances due to the implementation of AI technology.
It is estimated that very smart fabrics will hold the highest CAGR in the upcoming forecast years. It is anticipated that the protection and military industry will be the major end-user of the smart textile industry due to the ability of a smart textile to react to chemical, thermal, mechanical, magnetic and electrical variations in the surrounding environment. Due to the large application of sensing functionality in almost all applications of smart textiles, the sensing functionality segment had the largest market share in 2018. Monitoring and sensing functionality can be tracked down to various applications such as military & defense, medical, sports & fitness for a long time.
North America had the largest market share in 2018 and expected to grow at a fast pace in the upcoming years. There is an increasing demand for smart textiles in the healthcare and transportation industry in North America. It is expected that the Asia Pacific will grow at a steady pace in the upcoming years.
Asian countries such as China, India, and Japan are enriched with low-cost labor and raw materials. Hence it is anticipated that these markets would be transformed into a manufacturing hub for smart fabrics in the upcoming years. Due to this European market has shown a significant decline in smart textile markets but increasing R&D initiatives from manufacturers such as intelligent fabrics under the EU FP6 and FP7 programs would boost the market in the future.
