Contract textiles is a business-to-business (B2B) venture in which textile producers have set up a contract manufacturing of finished goods with market participants. Although they go by the same name, contract textiles are completely different in terms of specification, performance, and expectation from domestic textiles, which include blankets, pillows, sheets, duvets, and towels. Throughout the anticipated period, industry growth is anticipated to be driven by an increasing need for textile contracting to meet specific supply requirements provided by end-users from public buildings, hospitals, workplaces, and hotels.

Market growth is predicted to be positively impacted by the use of sophisticated manufacturing technologies in the production of contract textiles using bigger looms, robotics, and computerised equipment.
