  1. Raw Materials for Technical Textiles Exhibition- cum- Conference on Technical Textiles 25th Aug’11 Manohar Samuel Birla Cellulose

  2. Presentation Covers……. • Fibres and Functional value in technical textiles • Business Growth recommendation for technical textiles

  3. Global Fiber Production Scenario All Fibres 80 Million T Mn T – In Million Tons Apparel/Textiles: Million T Technical Textiles: Million T Natural 26 Mn T Manmade 54 Mn T Wool 1 Mn T Silk 0.15 Mn T Cotton 24 Mn T Linen 0.52 Mn T Synthetics 50 Mn T Cellulosic # 4.28Mn T Others 1 Mn T Polyester 37 Mn T Nylon 4 Mn T Acrylic 1.98 Mn T Tow (Acetate/ Viscose) 0.7 Mn T Staple (Viscose) 3.2 Mn T Filament (Acetate, Viscose, Cupro) 0.38 Mn T Olefin 6 Mn T Jute –extra Source : Fibre Organon Based on Average Production as on 2010

  4. World Fibre Basket in last five years • Dominance of Synthetic filament yarns • Cotton is flat but highly sought after due to its properties • Consistent growth in VSF with highest CAGR% Source:- Fibre Organon Jun-11

  5. Technical Textiles – Importance of Fibre What is Technical Textile?Textile products manufactured primarily for their technical and performance properties How do we get the Functional Performance for the End User?Differentiation at Fibre stage Yarn Stage Fabric Stage Wet Processing Stage Technology at Fibre, yarn, Fabric and End Conversion stage

  6. Raw Materials for Technical Textiles • Regular/Generic fibers • Natural fibers: Cotton, silk, wool, jute, hamp, ramie, flax • Regenerated fibers: Viscose, Lyocell. • Synthetic fibers: Nylon, PET, PP, Acrylic. • 2. Specialty variants of • regular/generic fibers • Flame retardant • Super absorbent • Antimicro bacterial • Ultra fine fibers. etc. • 3. High tech/high performance fibers: • High chemical- and combustion-resistant organic fibres: Nomex, Kevlar • High performance inorganic fibres: Glass, Asbestos, Carbon

  7. Worldwide Fiber composition in Technical Textiles • World over, PSF/PFY and PP based products have maximum application in Technical textile, comprising over 50% of the share, the applications are across product categories and usage • Viscose and other cellulosic fibres has 6% share

  8. Fiber composition in Technical Textiles in India • In India the fibre composition in Technical Textile is quite contrasting to the world as natural fibres have 50% share. • Viscose, Cellulosic and Regenerated fibre comprise of 6.6% share which is comparable to the share of these fibres in technical textiles across the world • Glass fibre for Technical textile in India is just 2.1% where as worldwide it has a 15% share

  9. World Technical Textiles Consumption, 2010 Volume wise Value wise 23,774,000 tons $ 127 bn. Sportech although is 6% of the Volume, in Value terms it contributes 15%, Mobiltech is 14% in volume but 24% in value terms in 2010 Packtech is 15% in Volume but contributes 5% in Value terms, similarly hometech is 12% in volume terms but contributes 7% in volume terms

  10. Specialty Variants of Viscose, Polyester and other fibres

  11. High-tech fibre

  12. High-tech fibre

  13. Segment wise consumption of different fibres

  14. Tech Textile – Growth Role of Fibre Manufacturers

  15. Technical Textiles – Indian Business Growth Focus India as Global Manufacturing Hub India as Consuming Hub owing to the large population The Key Challenge has been always whether Market comes first or the product The Answer is both come together……

  16. Fibre Innovation first time in the world New Markets Entry Business Development – Components & Focus Fibre Innovation first time for India Application Development for new Product Application Development Specific to Particular markets

  17. Role of Centre of Excellence in Tech Textiles

  18. Review and Recommendations for Growth of Tech Textile Sector

  19. Recommendations : Market Mapping #1 • A global understanding o f the Tech Textile sector in size • Ministry of Textiles can extend the base line survey to Global context • Market potential from current to the next ten years mapped for need gap analysis • Technology and equipment gap – bring in partners • Specialty fibre gap – Aramid, Glass fibre etc. R&D and collaborations • Capital equipment Gap - collaboration from abroad.

  20. Recommendations : Product Understanding- Role of COE’s #2 • To Buy out relevant International samples and decode • Create facility for Prototype development exactly matching • Build a studio for their specialization with International samples • Commercials made for each potential product with Industry • Tabulate different comparative standards • Formulate Indian standards for application based

  21. Recommendations : Product Understanding- Role of IITA #3 • ITTA should support standard formulation t • Buyer’s standards not mentioned in Global standards • Support COE’s for fixing Indian standards with BIS • ITTA should support technical projects with COE’s • Practical projects which help to understand Indian conditions • Commercial information on worthwhile projects • ITTA should make a lifetime benefit for large applications - shared with respective user industry ministry along with Textile Commissioner’s Office

  22. Recommendations : Role of Gov. for Legislation #4 • Gov. of India’s legislation for the safety, cost and welfare of the common man in the following areas wud help. • Only BIS and pharmacopeia consistent meditech products • Flame retardant fabrics in public places and railways, buses • Geo tech in all express ways, highways, dams and rail tracks • Protech for firemen, mining, defense sectors • Textile Ministry support with the other Ministry’s • Health Ministry for meditech products and DGCA • Railways Ministry for Geotech • Education Ministry for including Tech Tex in syllabus of • Meditech for MBBS • Geotech for Civil Engineers • Agritech for agricultural engineering • ITI courses for operations of tech textiles

  23. Recommendations : Role of Gov. for Fiscal & Non Fiscal Correction #5 • Excise duty to be at least in line with regular textiles for non-woven tech textiles. • Duty drawback and DEPB for nonwoven and converted products do not find a mention and needs to be notified • Specific HS codes is proposed for specialty fibres • All standards for Non-implantables should have Woven & Nonwoven both as product option; and should thus find a place in govt. tenders

  24. Recommendations : Role of Indian Textile Industry for Technical Textiles #7 • Leaders in Industry to work with Gov to set up specific Tech Textile parks similar to Apparel parks. • Technical Textiles should be promoted by all stakeholders • Conferences with actual cost benefit and user industry participation for each sector • International Technical Textile Exhibitions • Specific websites for technical textiles in Gov. and Industry Association forums
