energy crisis
Textile industry demands perspectives
By Sibylle Michel
Textile and clothing companies are hit hard by the rise in energy prices. Südwesttextil appeals to politicians to overcome the energy crisis together – for the future of regional textile production.
The value chains of textiles are complex – through special know-how in yarn production, knitting, weaving or finishing, textiles can beautify rooms, protect our health and solve the problems of our time as a cross-sectional technology. In Baden-Württemberg, the textile value chain is more complete than in almost any other region in order to develop these solutions. However, the explosion in energy prices does not leave many of the predominantly small and medium-sized companies a minute’s rest.
