Conductive Textiles Market Report by Fabric (Cotton, Nylon, Polyester, and Others), Product (Woven Textiles, Non-Woven Textiles, Knitted Textiles), Application (Military and Defense, Healthcare, Sports and Fitness, and Others), and Region 2024-2032

The global conductive textiles market size reached US$ 2.3 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 7.3 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 13.5% during 2024-2032.

Conductive textiles refer to the fabrics that are blended or coated with conductive metals. Some of the commonly used materials include nylon, wool, polyester and cotton. They are woven with metallic strands of titanium, gold, copper and nickel for enhancing the electrical properties of the textiles. The metals are usually deposited chemically with autocatalytic chemistry, printed with conductive nanoparticle inks or coated with physical vapor deposition techniques. They exhibit various favorable properties, such as high strength, flexibility, elasticity, heat insulation, water absorbency, dyeability and washability. As a result, conductive textiles are widely used for the manufacturing of pressure-sensitive adhesive (PAS) tapes, conductive threads, fabric sheets, aerospace textiles and metal mesh.

Conductive Textiles Market Trends:

The increasing demand for e-textiles and smart wearable devices across various industries, such as medical, healthcare, defense and sports, is among the key factors driving the growth of the market. Smart wearable devices are integrated with smart fabrics and conductive textiles for effective health monitoring and transmission of physiological signals over devices. Moreover, the widespread adoption of conductive textiles in medical devices is providing a thrust to the market growth. They are used for pain relief, regulating body temperatures and controlling muscle vibrations. In line with this, they are also commonly used in the manufacturing of military jackets, garments and uniforms for enhanced protection. Additionally, various innovations, such as the utilization of advanced antibacterial silver nanoparticles to electro spin graphene fibers, are acting as other growth-inducing factors. These fibers are integrated with sensors, actuators and heating panels for controlling electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, signal and power transfer and static dissipation. Other factors, including extensive research and development (R&D) activities, along with the implementation of favorable government policies, are anticipated to drive the market toward growth.
