ROADMAP FOR THE INDIAN
Technical Textiles

I had the opportunity to organize a focused workshop on the “Marketing and Technology of Technical Textiles,” in Coimbatore from July 3-4, 2009. The aim was to create a platform where both technical and commercial aspects of technical textiles
sector could be discussed. Here are some thoughts I provided in the inaugural speech.
This focused workshop on technical textiles for the first time will infuse both technical and marketing knowhow on technical textiles. There will be presentations from consultants and leading companies in the nonwovens and technical textiles who are successful in India. More importantly, latest world and Indian market reports on both disposable and durable technical textiles (nonwoven and industrial fabrics) will be presented from world's leading trade bodies such as Association of the Nonwoven Fabrics Industry, Cary, USA and Industrial Fabrics Association, International, Roseville, USA.
