The 5th International Conference on Advances in Textiles, Nonwoven and Technical Textiles (ATNT) 2008, July 14-16, 2008 in Coimbatore, India, is organized by Texas Tech University in collaboration with Avinashilingam University for Women.

Several leading international professional bodies such as INDA (Association of the Nonwoven Fabrics Industry), TAPPI (Nonwovens Division), Industrial Fabrics Association International's Safety and Protective Products Division; and Society of Dyers and Colorists (SDC-India) serve as honorary sponsors of this international meet.

The theme and venue of the international conference is timely as India offers enormous potential for the growth in technical textiles.

A recent study by researchers at Nonwoven and Advanced Materials Laboratory at Texas Tech University shows that the technical textile industry's growth in India will be in double digits for the next 3-5 years.

As the industry is growing with support from both public and private sectors, it is extremely essential to bring leading scientists and industrialists from many parts of the world in one platform.

ATNT 2008 will focus on cutting-edge research and marketing papers spanning the entire segment of textile industry from fiber to finish, nonwoven, technical textiles to marketing and economics.

For the first time in its history, the conference will also present awards to individuals who have played major roles in the growth of technical textile industry in India.

Call For Papers Deadline:
A call for the papers has been extended and brief abstracts should be sent to the Organizing Secretary listed below no later than May 15, 2008.
