The textile market is continually on the cutting edge of change. Specialists and textile engineers have been working on improvements to the industry since ancient times. In order to ensure this continues, manufacturers are developing novel fibers. There are many eco-friendly and cost-effective new fiber types being used in the textile industry. It is also crucial to the expansion of the clothing industry, the growth of exports, and the rise in employment.
What is Textile Fiber?
The majority of the time, the material that makes up textile fiber comes from either natural or synthetic sources. This material is initially transformed into textile yarn, and then it is subjected to a variety of processes—including oven, non-oven, and unique process—in order to be transformed into fabric. It can appear as strand-like flexible hair or as the smallest visible unit of textile manufacture. Both of these manifestations are possible.
The progress of technology has allowed for the production of an artificial version of this fiber, despite the fact that it originally derives from the natural world. Every day, fresh fiber is created, and it derives its components from a wide variety of plants, minerals, and animals.
List of New Fibers in Textile Industry:

21. Coolmax EcoMade fiber
Conclusion:
Since novel fibers are always being developed, its quality must be tested and improved upon. In addition, the fiber environmental impact should be considered at every stage of production. Non-biodegradable and potentially harmful fibers should be phased out. Only then can the textile sector establish solid foundations for sustained growth.
