How much technology can be incorporated into a piece of clothing? They can have sterilizing and anti-viral fabrics, a skin-like texture as thin as cicada wings, and an automatic temperature adjustment function… The in-depth intervention of the “five new” elements of new technology, new materials, new functions, new processes, and new designs has made Modern clothing is showing more and more “tech style”.
The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out that we must persist in ensuring and improving people’s livelihood during development, encourage joint efforts to create a better life, and continuously realize the people’s yearning for a better life. Dressing warmly is no longer people’s primary requirement for clothes. Dressing well, dressing beautifully, and wearing technology and being environmentally friendly has gradually become a fashion.
In recent years, what representative new elements have emerged in the clothing industry? Under the “double carbon” goal, what are the new trends and trends in the industry? Technological innovation in the apparel industry, what are the consensus and challenges? In response to the above questions from netizens, reporters from Science and Technology Daily invited some representatives of the National People’s Congress from the apparel industry to interact with everyone.
Green, technology and individuality lead the industry trend
Netizen @大Master: What directional impact will the report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China bring to the garment industry? Under the “double carbon” goal, what are the new trends and trends in the industry?
Representative Chen Wei: Employment in the apparel industry has a very high concentration of entrepreneurship. The diversified industrial ecology and multi-level industrial structure give the industry greater population accommodation capacity and innovation and entrepreneurship in the future. space. Promoting the all-round development of people with the highquality development of the industry is an important direction for industry development. Technology and design innovation are integrated, materials and equipment are upgraded and iterated, and products and applications are expanded and enriched. The clothing industry is creating material wealth and cultural aesthetics. In particular, the development of material technology and industrial textiles has made the trend of woven everything more obvious. From deep sea and deep space to road construction, the application boundaries are constantly expanding.
Representative Xu Weilin: The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed to accelerate the green transformation of development methods. This provides guidance and guidance for the green development of the clothing industry. Focusing on the “double carbon” goal, the ChinaTextile Industry Federation has launched the “Chinese Fashion Brand Climate Innovation Carbon Neutrality Acceleration Plan” to select 30 key brand companies and 60 manufacturing companies. Enterprises and a number of key industrial clusters carry out carbon neutral pilot demonstrations to accelerate the establishment of a green, low-carbon recycling fashion industry system.
Representative Li Chengxia: The greening of global competition and cooperation, the transparency of the industrial system, and the responsibility of the consumer market are becoming new trends facing the current development of the apparel industry. New trends and trends are mainly reflected in the upgrading of domestic consumption. The yearning for a better life gradually promotes consumption upgrading in the domestic demand market, thereby bringing about iterative upgrading of the industry and advancement of science and technology. Consumers pay more attention to the functionality and fitness requirements of clothing in multiple scenarios, such as outdoor clothing, workplace clothing, home clothing, and sportswear, all of which reflect the development of the clothing industry in a greener, more personalized, and more technological direction.
Technology and art “hand in hand” in clothing
Netizen @多米yijia: How many technological elements are incorporated into a seemingly ordinary piece of clothing? In recent years, what representative new technologies, new materials, new functions, new processes, and new designs have emerged in the apparel industry?
Representative Li Chengxia: This problem is not only a problem for practitioners, but also a problem of the times. With the blessing of culture, technology, innovation, green, fashion and many other development concepts, there are too many technological elements behind a piece of clothing. Taking an ordinary cotton shirt as an example, from the breeding of raw cotton and the development of special unmanned intelligent machinery for growing cotton, to the upgrading of spinning technology and equipment, the improvement of weaving technology, and the application of waterless dyeing technology, All aspects of intelligent production and inspection of woven garments, as well as product logistics, sales terminal big data management and facial recognition adaptation, are all full expressions of technological elements.
In recent years, the “five new” elements that have emerged in the clothing industryElements, especially smart factories, unmanned factories, etc., have subverted the public’s concept that clothing production is a labor-intensive industry. Taking a jacket as an example, a series of functional requirements such as new laminated waterproof technology, breathability and wear resistance make the clothes unique.
Representative Xu Weilin: Technology and art “hand in hand” in clothing are the current development direction of the clothing industry. A seemingly ordinary piece of clothing may incorporate multi-disciplinary comprehensive technologies such as electronic information, biomedicine, and artificial intelligence. It can sense changes in the human body or the external environment in a timely manner, and actively respond to maintain wearing comfort.
The Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics clothing is very typical, integrating functionality, nationality and artistry. Compared with traditional clothing, it has many innovations and breakthroughs. It not only presents traditional Chinese cultural elements such as ink art, but also allows people to dress freely under temperature changes and scene changes. Through scientific material selection, each piece of clothing is windproof and water-repellent, moisture-permeable, and flexible in texture to meet the needs of special climate conditions.
There will be a “leader” in every period
Netizen @Wuxing07: What consensus and challenges exist in technological innovation in the clothing industry? How should clothing companies gain a foothold in market competition? Which domestic companies or cases have impressed you with their innovations?
Representative Chen Wei: Innovation in the apparel industry is closely related to technological innovation of the times, and they resonate at the same frequency. The apparel industry must seize the opportunities of the times, actively embrace technology, and dare to meet challenges. In particular, textile and clothing-related universities and scientific research institutes must have an insight into industry development trends, plan some forward-looking projects in advance, work hard to solve a number of key technical problems in the industry, and promote the clustering, high-end, and high-end textile and clothing industry.Intelligent and brand development to comprehensively enhance the competitiveness in the international market.
Representative Xu Weilin: The apparel industry needs to make breakthroughs in raw material development, intelligent manufacturing, product standards, high-end products, and green and sustainable development, and continue to become high-end, intelligent, and Personalization, branding and green upgrade. Through independent innovation and collaborative innovation, we will comprehensively build the core scientific and technological capabilities of clothing brands, lead industrial upgrading and structural transformation, and move towards high-quality development of the clothing industry. Domestically, I am deeply impressed by the technological innovation of Wenwen Medical and Anta Group. Innovation helps brands stand out from the competition and also helps enhance the competitiveness of my country’s apparel industry in the global market.
Representative Li Chengxia: Since 2022, affected by unfavorable factors such as demand contraction, supply shocks, weakening expectations, and the epidemic, the apparel industry has faced unprecedented challenges. Under the cyclical development trend of the apparel industry, “leaders” will appear at each stage. As consumers have higher and higher requirements for quality and functionality, and the quality of the people continues to improve, the clothing industry is not only an industry defined by “simple” good looks and fashion, who can combine new technologies, new processes, New materials, new trends and other technological innovations are firmly in your own hands, and who can win in the fierce market competition?
