| Abstract | ||||
| The textile industry is undergoing a transformation focused on sustainability and efficiency. Innovations such as biodegradable fibers made from renewable sources are promoting circularity by recycling materials and reducing waste. Textile-to-textile recycling is converting waste into new fibers, fostering a more sustainable fashion industry. Smart textiles equipped with sensors can monitor temperature and movement, enabling wearable technologies that provide real-time data. 3D knitting technology minimizes waste by producing seamless garments tailored to body contours. Advanced dyeing methods, such as CO₂-based techniques, are reducing water usage and harmful chemicals. Incorporating antimicrobial agents enhances hygiene, while phase changes materials help regulate temperature for comfort. Self-healing textiles extend the lifespan of garments, making them ideal for workwear and outdoor apparel. These innovations are reshaping the textile industry and supporting global sustainability goals.. The textile industry is undergoing a transformation focused on sustainability and efficiency.
