Market Snapshot:
Natural fabrics such as cotton, silk and wool are obtained from natural resources like plants, animals and minerals. These are convertible into nonwoven fabrics such as felt, paper or into woven cloth. The usefulness of a fibre is determined by properties such as length, strength, pliability, elasticity, abrasion resistance & others. The fabric is produced in accord with specific country-level or international organic agricultural standards, integrating ecological processes, maintaining local biodiversity, and avoiding the use of toxic synthetic pesticides and fertilizers. According to Discover Natural Fibres Initiative (DNFI), world natural fibre production in 2018 is estimated at 32 million metric tons.
