Technical Textiles offers a huge opportunity in India for both local consumption as well as for exports. Indian Technical

textile market is spade across all twelve segments. The domestic consumption has seen high growth of 15 % per annum.

To facilitate the growth of this industry in India, the office of Textile Commissioner, Ministry of Textiles, Government of

India has announced different schemes to promote Technical Textiles in India as a part of Technology Mission on

Technical Textiles. Thus, various Centres of Excellence (CoE) in different segments of Technical Textiles have been created

with the objective of providing infrastructure at one place for the convenience of the manufacturers of technical textiles

in India. Our institute has been designated as Centre of Excellence in Nonwovens and Govt. of India, Ministry of Textiles

has sanctioned Rs. 24.5 Crores to set-up and establish this very prestigious project of CoE in Nonwovens

The genesis and growth of the institute was a sequel to the intense desire and support from the powerful co-operative

sector. Keeping in view the fabric of social responsibility, Mr. K. B. Awade, Former Member of Parliament, founded D.K.T.E.
