Managing colour from the design stage to the finished product can be a difficult activity as colour perception is subjective and can therefore be inconsistent.
Smart or intelligent textiles are a relatively novel area of research within the textile industry with enormous potential within the healthcare industry.
As consumer demands for specific attributes in their textiles increase and global competition intensifies, it is important that the industry finds ways of engineering certain performance requirements into textiles and apparel.
In today's climate there is an increasing requirement for protective textiles, whether for personal protection, protection against the elements, chemical, nuclear or ballistic attack.
