2. Medical Textiles: 
Textiles used in the medical and healthcare industry, including surgical gowns, drapes, bandages, wound dressings, implantable textiles, and healthcare garments, designed for hygiene, infection control, and patient comfort.

3. Geotextiles: 
Textiles used in geotechnical engineering applications, such as road construction, erosion control, drainage systems, and soil stabilization, to enhance the performance and durability of civil engineering structures.

4. Agrotech Textiles: 
Textiles used in agriculture and horticulture, including shade nets, crop covers, mulch mats, insect nets, and geotextiles for erosion control and soil improvement, to optimize crop growth, protect plants, and conserve resources.

5. Automotive Textiles: 
Textiles used in the automotive industry for various applications, including seat covers, carpets, airbags, headliners, insulation materials, and tire cord, providing comfort, safety, and sound absorption.

6. Sportech Textiles:
