Conductive Textile Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Type (Woven Fabrics, Non-Woven Fabrics, Others), By Application (Military & Defence Sectors, Medical Sectors, Sports Sector, Others) and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

Conductive textile is a fabric that can conduct electricity. Conductive textiles are made from metal strands woven into the formation of the textile or conductive yarns that are conductive due to metal-coating. Conductive fibers contains non-conductive or low conductive substrate, that is either coated or implanted with electrically conductive elements, such as nickel, carbon, gold, copper, titanium, silver, and PEDOT. These materials have properties such as light weight and high strenght and flexible. Thus having applications includes EMI shielding, static dissipation, and other uses are in textile and wire machinery such as knitting, weaving, braiding.

The global conductive textile market is driven by the rising demand for smart fabrics and wearables among a growing population. Smart fabrics are fabrics used in the medical industry for monitoring along with usage in graphene are also expected o drive the market for inks Increasing application of conductive textile for being used in wiring and cables for automobiles, thus making the vehicle lighther and oil efficient. All these factors are expected to drive the market for conductive textiles.

The market conductive textile will be affected due to high cost of finished product. The manufacturing process of conductive textile is quite high thus making the end-product expensive. This results in conductive textiles used by only defence and military sectors as it is not affordable by common consumers, thus restraining the conductive textile industry growth.
