The "Anti-Static Technologies For Performance Apparel: Opportunities In A Fast Growing Market" report from Textiles Intelligence Ltd. has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Everyday electric shocks from static electricity are a common occurrence and generally pose little risk to the human body. However, static electricity is a critical issue in the electronics industry, where it can damage electronic devices. Also, a sudden discharge of static electricity can cause fires or explosions in some environments. In workplaces, people are the greatest source of static charge and therefore anti-static measures such as protective clothing are required in these environments.

Significantly, workwear is the largest market for anti-static apparel, and the largest consumer within this market is the electronics and computer industry. The market for anti-static products - including fibres, yarns, fabrics and apparel, among others - is highly specialised but few companies specialise solely in these products. More commonly, fabric or apparel firms which target the workwear or protective wear market include one or more anti-static products in their ranges.

Anti-static capabilities also feature in many flame resistant fabrics. Common conductive elements used in anti-static fabrics include carbon, copper, graphene, metallic salts, silver or stainless steel, and the choice of conductive product will depend partly on the end use and the required level of protection.

Looking ahead, the market for anti-static products is set to grow significantly for a number of reasons, including: the ever increasing expansion of electronics in consumer products; miniaturisation of electronic components, which are more susceptible to static charge; growing awareness of workplace safety; and strong growth in certain end-use markets, including the automotive industry and packaging.

Geographically, strong growth is forecast for Asia - and for China and India in particular - as a result of strong growth in manufacturing activity and rapid expansion of the electronics industry in the region.
