What Is Textile?

The term textile originates from the Latin verb texere to weave but according to the Textile Institute's Terms and Definitions Glossary ''Textile is a general term applied to any manufacture from fibers, filaments or yarns characterized by flexibility, fineness and high ratio of Length to thickness''

Textiles consists of Spinning, weaving or knitting, dyeing, finishing & manufacturing of garment. Basically to be a composite mill or factory, they must have above mentioned facility.

Either that will not consider as a composite factory.

So first of all we have to know what are the links between those parts of the textile industry.

Below I mentioned a flow chart which will give you a basic idea about the input and output of those specific parts of textiles.
