Manufacture of textiles

NACE v2.0 Code: C13

About manufacture of textiles

NACE code 13 covers the manufacture of textiles, a vital industry that plays a crucial role in the global economy. Textile production is a labor-intensive process that transforms raw materials, such as natural and synthetic fibers, into a wide range of products, including fabrics, yarns, and other textile goods. This industry is a significant contributor to employment and economic growth, particularly in developing countries where textile manufacturing is a major export industry.

Production process

The key production techniques used in the textile industry include spinning, weaving, knitting, and finishing. Spinning involves the transformation of raw fibers into yarn, while weaving and knitting are used to create fabrics from the yarn. Finishing processes, such as dyeing, printing, and chemical treatment, are then applied to the fabrics to enhance their properties and appearance.

Production inputs

The textile industry relies on a variety of raw materials, including natural fibers (such as cotton, wool, and silk) and synthetic fibers (such as polyester, nylon, and acrylic). In addition to these primary inputs, the industry also requires specialized machinery, such as looms, knitting machines, and dyeing equipment, as well as various chemicals and dyes used in the finishing processes.

Production outputs

The textile industry produces a diverse range of outputs, including clothing, home textiles (such as bedding and curtains), and industrial textiles (such as upholstery and technical fabrics). These textile products are then consumed by a wide range of other industries, including 14 Manufacture of wearing apparel, 31 Manufacture of furniture, and 17 Manufacture of paper and paper products.
