전도성 텍스타일 시장 - 세계 산업 규모, 점유율, 동향, 기회, 예측(2018-2028년)

Global Conductive Textile market is anticipated to grow significantly through 2028 due to the increasing demand from the sport & fitness sector. In 2019, around 19.3% of the population in the United States was engaged in Sports activity.

Global Conductive Textile market is expected to expand during the projected period due to increasing demand from the sport & fitness sector as it measures heartbeat as well as absorbs sweat. Conductive textile materials are widely used in smart fabric applications, especially those that monitor body functions, and are used in smart textile applications such as sensors, heating textiles, electrostatic discharge clothing, and communication. In addition, the increasing use of conductive textiles in the automotive industry, military, and defense for various purposes increases its demand. Furthermore, the development of conductive textiles using graphene inks and the rise in the use of conductive textiles in wearable medical and fitness equipment will both offer significant growth possibilities for the conductive textiles market in the coming years.

Additionally, nanotechnology involves the manipulation of materials on a molecular or atomic scale. Advancements in nanotechnology have enabled the development of conductive materials that are more efficient and durable than traditional materials. Nanotechnology has also made it possible to create conductive materials that are flexible and can be integrated into clothing and other textiles. Moreover, growing investment in the research & development for increased use of conductive textiles in various smart home applications for automation systems that can be controlled using gestures or voice commands. Several companies have been developing conductive textiles that are infused with antimicrobial agents, such as silver, copper, and zinc. These materials can help prevent the spread of bacteria and viruses, making them ideal for use in healthcare settings, as well as in everyday clothing.

Increasing Demand from the Sports & Fitness Sector

Many sportsmen prefer smartwatches and fitness monitors as their companions; however, clothing is also evolving in this field. It introduced shirts that could both measure pulse and absorb perspiration. As a result, the sports and fitness sector has been able to develop new materials with the same or more qualities. Fabrics can incorporate sensors or electrodes that can monitor a variety of characteristics, such as movement, body temperature, or pulse.

For instance, AI Silk has developed the innovative LEAD SKIN conductive fibers using dyeing technology in which fiber itself becomes electrically conductive by a conductive polymer coating made of Clevios, developed by Heraeus Epurio, which is used to measure data such as heartbeat or movement parameters and stimulate muscles in sportswear.

Jackets can offer heat, depending on the situation and the wearer's health. The sports industry may see the use of smart fabrics. Wearing fitness equipment or smart watches can restrict movement and can become superfluous, but wearing a t-shirt might be all that's needed to analyze and collect necessary & crucial fitness and health data.

For Instant, according to Codete, in 2021, the revenue from the top 10 fitness and healthcare apps increased by 61% globally.

Additionally, conductive textiles are also increasingly being used in the healthcare sector as they are used in medical devices such as electrocardiogram (ECG) electrodes, electromyography (EMG) electrodes, and neurostimulation electrodes as well as used in smart fabrics that can monitor patients' vital signs, such as heart rate and blood pressure, in real-time. The increasing use of conductive textiles in healthcare is due to the need for more advanced technologies to improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs.

For instance, Shieldex produces Silitex conductive textiles with conductive silicone, which is ideal for dry electrodes in the electronic muscle and nerve stimulation (EMS) and measuring vital parameters in medical applications.

Growing Demand from the Military & Defence Sector

Special conductive fabrics are produced for particular use in industries like the military, marine, and defense, among others. For its varying demands, the defense sector relies heavily on these smart textiles. The textiles are made specifically to shield the warriors from harsh weather, allow quick bodily movements, and save you from harmful nuclear and chemical reactions. Additionally, it has assisted in improving combatants' performance, allowing them to survive the conflict in addition to being employed in army uniforms and other equipment to provide soldiers with real-time situational awareness. They are also used in communication systems, electronic warfare systems, and other military applications. Along with this, conductive fibers are also used to create ropes, parachutes, tents, and safety harnesses. Moreover, conductive fibers are employed to charge various devices, eliminating the need for additional batteries and cords on the uniform.

For instance, according to CNBC, China committed to spending USD 177.61 billion on the military in 2019, boosting the use of conductive fibers in smart textiles as a result of technical development.

Additionally, conductive textiles are used in seat heaters, airbags, and other safety devices. They are also used in interior lighting and entertainment systems.

For instance, In May 2022, Vibia introduced a lighting system comprising conductive textile ribbons, which works on plus-minus programmable lighting systems.

Moreover, conductive textiles are used in touch screens, flexible displays, and other electronic devices. They are also used in smart clothing that can track fitness data, monitor vital signs, and provide other health-related information.

Therefore, increasing demand for conductive textiles from the defense, automotive, and electronics sectors led to the growth of Global Conductive Textile market during the forecast period.

Cotton will be a Key Fabric in the Forecast Period.

Cotton conductive textiles are created by dip-and-dry coating knitted cotton fabric with single-wall carbon nanotubes. It provides quick reactions and excellent stability in sensors. Furthermore, real-time human motions like walking, standing, jogging, sitting, bending an elbow or finger, etc., are tracked using cotton conductive fabric-based sensors. Additionally, the cotton conductive fabric displays a powerful electric heating effect. All these properties help to increase the demand for conductive textiles in the projected period.

For instance, according to the National Library of Medicine, researchers evaluated the cotton conductive fabric's durability after washing it during an experiment in 2018. The results showed that while the electrical resistance did slightly increase after the first few washes, the number of washes had little effect on the fabric's conductivity.

Additionally, the Polyester fabric is popular because it is sturdy, resistant to most chemicals, and shrinks less than cotton. As a result, it is used as a raw material to create conductive wearables like jackets and sportswear.

For instance, Soliani Emc s.r.l. Produces EMC/EMI Nickel Polyester fabrics which are stable against corrosion and have a good shielding value.

However, the materials used in conductive textiles, such as silver, copper, and carbon, are expensive, and their production process is complex and time-consuming. Along with it, the high manufacturing cost of conductive textiles on account of extensive investment in research and development and infusing electronic devices into the garments is cost-intensive and subsequently are factor driving up the overall price, which is ultimately hampering the growth of the market. Moreover, there are no standard testing methods for conductive textiles, which can make it difficult for manufacturers to ensure the quality of their products. This can also lead to confusion for consumers who may not understand the differences between various conductive textiles. In addition, issues related to the durability and reliability of conductive textiles with respect to the harsh condition, such as repeated washing or exposure to sweat and oils, which can cause degradation over time as well as limited availability of conductive textile components such as connectors and sensors, lead to delays in the production process and increase costs for manufacturers which restrain the growth of the market.
