Textile manufacturing

<p>Textile manufacturing or textile engineering is a major <a href="/facts/Textile_industry/KYCR1hcR">industry</a>. It is largely based on the conversion of <a href="/facts/Fibre/ttkxAFBu">fibre</a> into <a href="/facts/Yarn/fhMTsWg2">yarn</a>, then yarn into fabric. These are then <a href="/facts/Dyeing/6I8w1TyN">dyed</a> or printed, fabricated into cloth which is then converted into useful goods such as <a href="/facts/Clothing/5J5RhkYY">clothing</a>, <a href="/facts/Linens/LDvEnAI0">household</a> items, <a href="/facts/Upholstery/nHeTqDfz">upholstery</a> and various industrial products.
</p><p>Different types of fibres are used to produce yarn. <a href="/facts/Cotton/efXRcjbn">Cotton</a> remains the most widely used and common natural fiber making up 90% of all-natural fibers used in the textile industry. People often use cotton clothing and accessories because of comfort, not limited to different weathers. There are many variable processes available at the <a href="/facts/Spinning_(textiles)/4fRS5hp9">spinning</a> and fabric-forming stages coupled with the complexities of the <a href="/facts/Finishing_(textiles)/Mn7PMJFW">finishing</a> and colouration processes to the production of a wide range of products.
