Association of technical textiles manufacturers and processors (attmap)

The Association of Technical Textiles Manufacturers and Processors (ATTMAP) is an organization that represents the interests of companies involved in the production and processing of technical textiles. Technical textiles are materials designed for specific functions or applications, such as protective clothing, medical textiles, geotextiles, and automotive textiles. ATTMAP plays a crucial role in supporting and promoting the technical textiles industry, advocating for the needs of its members, and fostering collaboration and innovation within the sector. Technical textiles are a diverse and rapidly growing sector within the textile industry. Unlike traditional textiles, which are primarily used for clothing and home furnishings, technical textiles are engineered to meet performance requirements that go beyond basic aesthetics and comfort. These advanced materials are used in a wide range of industries and applications, including aerospace, healthcare, construction, and transportation. ATTMAP serves as a valuable resource for technical textiles manufacturers and processors, providing a platform for networking, knowledge sharing, and advocacy. By bringing together industry stakeholders, ATTMAP helps to facilitate collaboration and information exchange, driving innovation and competitiveness within the sector. The association also works to represent the interests of its members at the national and international level, advocating for policies and regulations that support the growth and sustainability of the technical textiles industry.
