Abstract

Abstract: New interior textile development is motivated by an ongoing global shift of supply and competition. Traditional manufacturers actually focus their development on the addition of innovative functions and utility value. This chapter describes in detail systematic procedural methods, which are used for product development of interior textiles. Four case studies illustrate successful product development examples for smart floors, acoustic damping tapestries, luminescent curtains and smart automotive cover fabrics. Learning experiences from these and other research projects are explained. The chapter closes with an outlook to future development trends and prospects of interior textiles.
