Graphene nanotubes for textile: multifunctionality, comfort, durability

The textile industry is rapidly evolving with the emergence of multifunctional fabrics powered by advanced technologies. From anti-static and anti-dust protection to heating textiles, these materials are reshaping both technical and everyday applications.


By adding graphene nanotubes, textiles gain reliable electrical conductivity and enhanced functionality, enabling their use in medical fabrics, protective workwear, automotive textiles, and construction heating systems. This innovation paves the way for durable, high-value textiles suited for both conventional and next-generation applications.

Graphene nanotubes—the advanced enabler of textile multifunctionality

The electrical conductivity introduced by graphene nanotubes not only provides textiles with the essential ESD protection required in ATEX-sensitive environments but also unlocks a range of highly valued functional properties, such as dust repellence and touch-screen compatibility, among others.


Thanks to their ultralow effective dosages, graphene nanotubes maintain the original durability, mechanical strength, softness, flexibility, and color palette of textiles, without causing carbon release on the surface or irritation to the skin.
