 The textile industry is a term used for
industries primarily concerned with the
design or manufacture of clothing as
well as the distribution and use
of textiles.
 DEFINITION

 Textile -A textile is a flexible material

consisting of a network of natural or
artificial fibers often referred to as
thread or yarn.
 Yarn is produced by spinning raw wool
fibers, flax, cotton, or other material on
a spinning wheel to produce long strands.
Textiles are formed by weaving, knitting,
crocheting, knotting, or pressing fibers’
together
TYPES OF TEXTILES

 COTTON TEXTILE
 SILK TEXTILE
 LEATHER TEXTILE
 JUTE
 COTTON MANUFACTURING
 Ginning
Ginning is the method of separating the cotton fibers from the
seedpods, and sometimes with the sticky seeds. This is done in the
cotton field with the help of machines.

Spinning
Spinning is the succeeding step to ginning. This process involves the
making of yarn from the cotton fiber. The cotton yarns are made of
different thickness in this stage.

Weaving
Weaving is the most important process in the making of cotton cloth.
In this process, two yarn is placed to make warp and weft of a loom
which successively turn them into a cloth.
 Fabric finishes and treatments
After weaving the cotton fabric passes through different processing
stages till it reaches to the state of final product
 STAGES
Singeing - This process burns off the fibers sticking in the goods.
 Scouring - The cleaning part of the fabrics are involved in this
process.
 Bleaching - The fabrics are bleached here to make it more whiter
and lighter.

Mercerizing - In this process, the fabric is immersed in alkali to

make it more strong, shining, durable, shrink free and stretch
free.
 Dyeing - This process involves the changing of the fabric color by
the treatment with a dye.
 Finishing - In this process, the fabric is treated with some
chemicals or other useful agents to make it qualitatively more
better, for e.g. cotton is made sun protected by treating it with
UV protecting agent.
 SILK MANUFACTURING
From Cocoon to Yarn
 The worms feed on mulberry leaves and increases their body
size by nearly 10,000 times in a short span of time.
 The worm ceases to eat by the end of thirty days and attach
itself to a piece of straw and begins to spin its cocoon.
 After the spinning of cocoon and before the hatching of the
worm into a moth, the cocoon is soaked in hot water unraveling
and producing long size thread. This fine thread is the basic
component of silk yarn and fabric.

Washing and bleaching of the silk threads

The natural fiber extracted from the silkworm holds some

glutinous substance (gummy substance or glue) which is removed by
washing and bleaching.
 Weaving
Weaving is a process where the fabric is created
by interlacing the warp yarns and the weft yarns.

 It is either done by machines or hand.

 Hand woven fabric is better than the machine

woven. It can make delicate designs with different
colored thread.
 Dyeing

There are two main types of silk fabrics.

1. Yarn-dyed or dyed-woven, like taffeta, duchess satin and many
pattern-woven fabrics.
2. Piece-dyed fabrics, which is carried out after weaving, like
crepes, twills, etc. The dyeing process gives the silk different
shades.

Embroidery process gives embellishment and the perfect finish

to the fabric to make it look more beautiful.
Finishing

Final soaking in a chemical solution

This process helps to preserve the sheen and luster of the silk
fabric. It adds weight and makes the fabric soft, smooth, easy to
iron and wrinkle resistant.
Printing is giving pattern to the fabric.
It is either done by
 Block-printing method,
 Roller-printing method or
 Screen printing. Screen printing is widely used in
silk fabrics.
CHARACTERISTICS OF SILK

 A good quality of silk begins with a warp

of approximately 2,000 threads for one
meter width. 1,600 threads or 1,800
threads are considered to be poor quality
fabric. Loosely woven fabrics are difficult
to sew.
