The textile industry is undergoing a transformative shift with the increasing use of prepared-for-print (PFP) fabrics becoming essential in the digital textile printing landscape.
The textile industry is undergoing a transformative shift with the increasing use of prepared-for-print (PFP) fabrics becoming essential in the digital textile printing landscape. These innovations are driven by technological advancements, sustainability efforts and market demand for quality and efficiency. Leading companies such as France-based finishing technology provider SENFA; Haryana, India-based cloth manufacturer Pearl Global Industries; and Paris, France-based interlinings manufacturer Chargeurs are at the forefront of this evolution.
They and others are tapping increasing demand for digital textile printing, which is growing. US-based Grand View Research valued the global market at an estimated US$2.6bn in 2022 and expects it to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.4% from 2023 to 2030.
The related global digital textile printer market is also healthy, according to a paper from Global Market Insights, which predicts an increase from US$2.53bn in 2023, expanding at a CAGR of 3.7% from 2024 to 2032.
India-based market intelligence service provider Research Corridor predicts the global digital textile market will generate US$9bn in annual sales by 2027.
PFP, or PFDP (prepared for digital print), is a key part of this growth, given it improves the quality of output, ensuring that the pre-printing scouring, bleaching and preparation of fabrics for textile printing meets specific standards for ink absorption and print quality.
