Tirupur’s Textile Industry Turns to Synthetic Fibers, Eyes Export Boom

Tirupur, Tamil Nadu’s leading textile hub, is undergoing a major transformation. Traditionally known for cotton garments, the industry is now shifting focus to synthetic fibers in a strategic move under the ‘China Plus One’ policy.

This shift is not just about keeping up with global trends—it’s about creating a competitive edge. By reducing reliance on imported materials and expanding into synthetic production, Tirupur aims to double its export value in the coming years.

Industry experts believe this pivot will attract global buyers looking to diversify beyond China, giving India a stronger foothold in the international textile market.

With innovation, investment, and adaptation at its core, Tirupur is stitching a bold new future for Indian textiles.
