Automotive textiles happen to be one rewarding sector, which extensively uses technical textiles, namely for interior trims, safety devices like seatbelts and airbags, carpets, filters, battery separators, hood liners, hoses, and belt reinforcement. The potential for the growth of the automotive textile business is considered one of the most progressive sectors in over the world, as car production is exponentially increasing in almost all developing countries. Most of the developments of components, parts, pieces, and materials used in a car are primarily governed by comfort, functionality, safety, economy, and ecology. Comfort is the first criterion that values the customer. In the case of a car's upholstery, both psychological comfort and thermo‐physiological comfort are considered. The incorporation of 3D woven composites is changing automotive design and the development process; instead of one level, the textile industry will be engaged at all stages of the automotive development process.
