The fashion industry, a sector that has barely evolved in thousands of years, now faces a profound transformation. New consumption habits, the new socio-economic and geopolitical scenario, demographic changes and the eruption of technology in all daily tasks also have had an impact on the value chain of the sector.
Robots that sew, stamping printers and self-managed factories are not science fiction but are the new fashion industry. Add to this processes that do not consume water, hardly any energy, or even chemicals and technology capable of recycling, regenerating and reintroducing. The new machines that the industry incorporates have completely transformed its image.
The textile industry is facing a new stage based on efficiency and savings with the introduction of new technologies. The first automated cutting and sewing systems have begun to appear. Digital printing is one of the new revolutions in the textile value chain. This technology replaces tinting, reduces labor and decreases the use of chemicals. Another technology is 3D printing. At the moment, these printers have begun to be used in specific areas, from the construction of pieces for the machinery of the industry to the construction of soles of sports shoes or glasses. Soon, 3D printing will also be introduced in the manufacture of clothing and accessories.
