Banana fibre – the next new sensation in textile industry

Innovation sees no limit and Indian consumers can expect something big coming up in the textile industry like fabrics and textiles woven from fine quality banana fibre.

A research study is already being carried out by the National Research Centre for Banana (NRCB) and if the proposition turns out to be viable, the country can very soon expect the domestic market to be flooded with an array of textile and garment products made from banana fibre. In India this fibre is mostly used for making handicraft items but even the US market has a huge demand for this raw material.
