The Chair of Textile Technologies at TU Chemnitz is dedicated to all textile issues from classic fabrics to high-performance textiles. Research focuses on innovative processes for new applications, the design and modification of textile machines and product development with a focus on technical textiles. Equally important: the development of new sources of natural fibres and the advancement of the concept of sustainability. Example project: the knitted sports shoe – not only unique, but also close to home. From the first thread to the finished model, it only travelled 80 km in Saxony!
