Taiwan sets textile standards

Taiwan’s textile industry is a major provider of functional fabrics for outdoor and sportswear brands. Taiwan accounts for 70 per cent of the world’s output of functional fabrics. As the world’s largest producer of functional fabric, the country’s textile industry is home to cutting-edge techniques, new technologies and the development of groundbreaking industry standards. With the strong development and integration abilities for functional artificial fibers, as well as the ability to provide a wide variety of customized fabrics in small quantities, Taiwan continues to develop competitive advantages in functional, environmental-friendly and smart fabrics. The textile industry also features low pollution and low energy consumption with production process, innovative technologies in its semiconductor and biomedical industries, electronic components, and cross industrial integration.

Today, nearly 50 per cent of all fabric is made from recycled materials and Taiwan is leading this big change throughout the global textile industry. Recycled yarns—used for apparel, industrial and sport accessories—are growing in importance and are a core part of the Taiwan textile industry, reducing the negative impact to the environment. As a leader in recycled polymer and polymer blends, the country is constantly introducing new sustainable textile developments, which combine high-tech, ecology, function and life aesthetics, such as the latest recycled nylon from ocean waste and water-free dyeing.
