Textile Machinery Market

Textile Machinery Market Outlook (2023-2033)

The global textile machinery market is valued at US$ 29 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach US$ 52 billion by 2033, registering a CAGR of 6.1% from 2023 to 2033 (forecast period).

Textile machines are used to make and process textiles, garments, and other materials. These tools are used for weaving, spinning, and dying. Textile machinery is also utilized to create dyes and finishes for fiber, yarn, and thread. The textile manufacturing process includes fiber processing, fabric production, yarn production, dyeing and printing, fiber pre-treatment, and applying finishing treatments.

The most popular forms of textile machinery include spinning machines, knitting machines, weaving machines, and texturing machines. Spinning machinery refers to machines that convert prepared cotton roving into usable thread or yarn. A knitting machine produces semi-automatic or completely automated knitted fabrics. Weaving machines are the tools used in the weaving process. Texturing machines can produce 1,200 rolls each month on average, and the machine design is highly adaptable, accommodating a wide range of roll sizes and diameters.

This machinery is broadly used in the textile and apparel industries to manufacture and process textiles, garments, and other nonwoven and woven materials.

The COVID-19 pandemic had a considerable impact on the whole supply chain of the textile sector. While the COVID-19 pandemic caused issues such as raw material shortages, price rises, and supply chain interruptions, the pent-up demand during this time culminated in a surge and recovery in orders in 2021. The pandemic's significant impact on everyday life has also pushed concepts such as circular production, digitalization, and sustainability into the forefront of manufacturers' decisions and investments.

The world's major textile machinery manufacturers believe that the growing pace and sustainable production-oriented advances seen in 2021 and 2022 will be maintained in 2023 and that the industry will be revitalized with the hosting of multiple international exhibitions.

Plasma treatment is becoming incredibly popular in the textile industry. Plasma treatment of textiles to increase performance is expected to benefit several industries, including the military, healthcare, leisure, and athletics. Since the plasma method produces no waste or dangerous by-products, plasma textile modification saves a lot of water, electricity, and chemicals.

Moreover, plasma treatment is widely used in the textile industry because it is an environmentally friendly approach for functionalizing the surface of textiles and fabrics without compromising the material's bulk properties.

The textile machinery industry is currently undergoing a transition from old to advanced machines that improve the final product's quality. This is due to advancements in technology in textile equipment manufacturing.

Why is Demand for Textile Machinery Escalating at a Rapid Pace?

“Burgeoning Textile and Apparel Industry”

Increasing textile and garment demand in developing and developed markets propel the global textile and apparel industry forward. New consumption centers for clothes and home textiles are emerging as the industry evolves.

The growing textile and apparel industry is expected to drive the demand for textile manufacturing machinery.

• According to the United Nations Comtrade statistics base, the global textile and apparel trade rose at a 6.3% annual rate from $770 billion in 2013 to $1,180 billion in 2020. In 2019, clothes were the most traded category, accounting for 58% of total trade.

Textile machinery shipments have expanded in unison with the growing demand for clothing and global textile and apparel trading, boosting the sales growth for textile machines.

Which Aspect Can Negatively Affect the Sales of Textile Machines?

“Growing Preference for Secondhand Textile Machinery”

The used textile machines sector is gaining popularity around the world. Since secondhand machinery is less costly than new machinery, many textile companies prefer to purchase it to replace outmoded machinery.

Moreover, used machines can be made available quickly, enabling businesses to stay competitive by incurring small expenditures, leading to increasing demand for used machinery. This is a major aspect likely to negatively affect the sales of textile and embroidery machinery.
