Preparation and spinning of textile fibres
NACE v2.0 Code: C13.1
About preparation and spinning of textile fibres
NACE code 13.1, 'Preparation and spinning of textile fibres', represents a crucial industry within the broader textile manufacturing sector. This industry is responsible for the initial processing of raw textile materials, transforming them into the essential inputs required by downstream textile production processes. As a foundational step in the textile supply chain, the preparation and spinning of textile fibres plays a vital role in supporting the broader textile and apparel industries, which are significant contributors to the global economy.
Production process
The main production techniques used in this industry involve the cleaning, sorting, and spinning of various textile fibres, such as cotton, wool, and synthetic materials. The process typically begins with the procurement of raw fibre materials, which are then subjected to a series of preparatory steps, including cleaning, carding, and combing, to align and refine the fibres. The prepared fibres are then spun into continuous yarn or thread, using specialized machinery like spinning frames and mules. These spinning techniques impart the desired properties, such as strength, texture, and uniformity, to the resulting textile materials.
Production inputs
The key inputs required for the preparation and spinning of textile fibres include the raw fibre materials themselves, such as 13.10 Preparation and spinning of textile fibres, 01.16 Growing of fibre crops, and 20.60 Manufacture of man-made fibres. Additionally, this industry relies on specialized machinery and equipment, such as carding machines, spinning frames, and winding machines, as well as various chemicals and auxiliaries used in the fibre preparation and spinning processes.
Production outputs
The primary outputs of the preparation and spinning of textile fibres industry are the various types of yarn and thread, which serve as the essential inputs for the 13.2 Weaving of textiles, 13.3 Finishing of textiles, and 14.1 Manufacture of wearing apparel, except fur apparel industries. These downstream industries utilize the spun textile fibres to produce a wide range of woven and knitted fabrics, as well as finished textile products, such as clothing, home furnishings, and industrial textiles.
