Conductive Textiles Market Forecasts to 2028 - Global Analysis By Fabric, By Product, By Application and Geography
According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Conductive Textiles Market is accounted for $2.0 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $5.3 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 17.93% during the forecast period. Fabrics that have conductive metals mixed in or coated on them are referred to as conductive textiles. Among the frequently used materials are cotton, polyester, wool, and nylon. To improve the textiles' electrical properties, titanium, gold, copper, and nickel are woven into the fabric. Typically, the metals are coated using physical vapour deposition methods, printed using conductive nanoparticle inks, or deposition chemically using autocatalytic chemistry. They display a number of advantageous qualities, including high strength, flexibility, elasticity, heat insulation, water absorbency, dyeability, and washability. As a result, conductive textiles are frequently used in the production of metal mesh, conductive threads, fabric sheets, and pressure-sensitive adhesive (PAS) tapes.
According to global textile and apparel (T&A) trade in 2021 was $869 billion. The trade showed a significant recovery of 22% post-Covid and a 2% growth over 2019. The increase in trade results in lucrative growth for the conductive textiles market.
Market Dynamics:
Driver:
Rising demand for smart fabrics and wearables
The growing population's increased demand for wearable technology and smart fabrics is driving the market for conductive textile. The market for inks is anticipated to be driven by the use of smart fabrics, which are fabrics used for monitoring in the medical field and graphene. In automobile wiring and cables, conductive textile is increasingly being used, making the car lighter and more fuel-efficient. As a result of all of these factors, the market for conductive textiles is anticipated to grow.
Restraint:
Government requirements and competitive prices
Government regulations mandate calibration for smart fabrics used in medical applications. They have not yet been commercialised or created for kids. Additionally, conductive material manufacturers will be put to the test in providing quality products at competitive prices. On the other hand, fabric maintenance is a significant obstacle for the market. These elements drive up prices overall and restrain market expansion.
Opportunity:
Rapid usage in medical devices
Over the forecast period, it is anticipated that there will be more opportunities due to the growing use of conductive textile in medical devices and the expansion of the use of conductive textiles made with graphene inks. Due to its ability to recognise, collect, and transmit physiological signals, the conductive textiles product aids doctors and other medical personnel in keeping track of and communicating about patients' conditions. It is intended to offer convenience and comfort at the same time. Additionally, new opportunities for the market are likely to be created by consumers' increasing awareness of and concern for their health.
Threat:
High cost of metals
The high cost of the finished product, which is a major obstacle to market expansion, may have an effect on adoption rates. Copper, carbon, nickel, silver, gold, and titanium are some of the metals that are most frequently used in conductive fabrics. Certain conductive metals are coated or embedded into fibres to create conductive textiles. The price of conductive fabrics is disrupted by the high cost of these materials.
COVID-19 Impact
The COVID-19 pandemic has made a significant difference to the conductive textiles market. In most parts of the world, consumer electronics and wearables production declined during the first few months of the pandemic. One of the main causes of the weakened product supply was the closure of important automotive, aerospace, and electronics production facilities. Due to supply chain problems, disruptions in logistics, and movement restrictions, the producers of conductive fabrics encountered numerous obstacles. However, the market has seen promising opportunities as a result of rising healthcare and military & defence spending.
The Military and defense segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
Due to the growing popularity of conductive wearables, which can track a soldier's health, monitor the battlefield, and help with communication and temperature monitoring, the Military and Defense segment is expected to witness the largest share during the forecast period. Military and defence industry consumption of conductive textiles is significantly influenced by the growth of military spending in emerging markets like China, India, and Mexico.
The Nylon segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
Due to the increasing demand and awareness and with the presence of a significant apparel manufacturing bases, the Nylon segment is expected to witness highest CAGR during the projection period. Aside from cost and weight, the top reason to use nylon is that it is heat resistant. This makes it ideal to use it in a high-temperature environment. Moreover, high demand for nylon in the production of conductive textiles due to its superior strength and damage resistance is anticipated to propel the market's growth.
Region with largest share:
Due to its advanced infrastructure and technology, North America is estimated to hold the largest share during the forecast period. The region's conductive textiles market is expected to grow over the course of the forecast period in part due to the region's automotive heritage and highly skilled labour force. Due to the use of conductive wearables and the shifting trend towards health awareness, Asia Pacific is expected to experience significant growth in the conductive textiles market. Further, it is anticipated that in the upcoming years, the market for conductive textiles in the region will grow as awareness of nylon's resilience and smoothness increases.
Region with highest CAGR:
The Asia Pacific region is anticipated to witness the highest CAGR during the forecast period owing to rising public awareness of their use and a changing trend toward health consciousness. Additionally, the expansion of the manufacturing sector is anticipated to benefit from factors like the growing population and improving economic conditions Furthermore, the demand for conductive textiles has been rising in the region in nations like China, India, and Japan due to the expanding use of smart fabrics in various industries, which is propelling the market in this region.
Key players in the market
Some of the key players profiled in the Conductive Textiles Market include Toray Industries Inc, Laird PLC, Seiren Co. Ltd, Bekaert, Shieldex, Coatex Industries, Arville, HYOSUNG, Kinetic Polymers, 3M, TIBTECH Innovations, UBE INDUSTRIES, LTD., W. Barnet GmbH & Co.

Key Developments:
In June 2022, 3M introduces 3M-Specified Water Repellent Greige Yarn, adding to its ever-evolving product mix of textile solutions. The new product joins 3M's other fabric-based innovations such as 3M™ Thinsulate™ Insulation and Scotchgard™ Protector. The yarn is specially crafted for the development of durable, moisture-managing fabrics, which in turn allows apparel manufacturers to create dual-action water-repellent/moisture-wicking activewear and flyknit shoes that can perform in demanding outdoor settings.
In May 2021, for instance, Toray Industries had developed a high thermal conductivity polymer technology that enhances the heat-dissipating properties of carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP). According to the company, the conductive polymer could be potentially used in smart wearables, mobile electronic devices, and advanced mobility solutions.
