Extensive use of smart textiles in military and defense sector is one of the major factors boosting the growth of the global smart textile market. Smart textiles can help in the creation of camouflage effects since they can change color and can be of extreme benefit to armed forces for protection. The US, China, India, Russia, and other leading and emerging military powers are investing heavily on upgrading their defense system and improving their deterrence ability which has helped in demand generation for smart textiles.

The sports industry is a significant end-use industry for smart textiles. Smart textile assist athletes in the control of body weight, temperature, external vibrations along with the provision of resistance from external weather conditions. In addition, the integration of wearable technology such as pedometers, heart rate monitors, and motion sensors have spurred the adoption of smart textiles in the sports industry. There has been a significant rise in consumer awareness towards healthcare and personal wellbeing, and this trend is expected to expedite the growth of the global textile market further.

There are strong interest and demand for smart textiles for healthcare and work wear application which induces robust demand for smart textile. In the medical sector, they find application in gowns, hospital beds, wound dressing, bandages, others and have the potential to transform patient care and improve safety.

Rapid advancements in textile engineering have further paved the way for the growth of the global smart textile market. Several innovations have been made in smart textiles that can be used for sports and fitness application which attracts a lot of demand for the smart textile market.

However, the growth of the market might be hindered by the capital-intensive nature of smart textiles and complexities in the manufacturing process.

Market Overview
Smart textiles are also known as smart clothing or smart garments. They are the fabrics, which have digital components such as light, battery, smart chips, and other small electronic devices fitted into it. Such fabrics are innovatively designed and engineered to meet the requirements of major end user such as military, sports, textile, automotive, and healthcare. Based on the functioning of the fabric, there are two major types of the smart textiles namely: performance enhancing and aesthetic.

The performance enhancing is a type of smart textiles, which is mainly used in athletic, sports and military applications. They control body temperature and weight, wind drag and external vibrations to improve the performance of an athlete.

On the other hand, the aesthetic smart fabrics light up or change color, can absorbs energy from environment by harnessing ambient light, wind vibrations, and heat by reacting with them. As per some leading research institutes, the global aerospace core material market is estimated to reach nearly USD 40 billion by the end of 2023, growing at a considerable growth rate of around 9%. This, in turn, is likely to boost demand for the smart fabrics in manufacturing aerospace composites during the review period.
