Features: The textile industry transforms natural cotton, wool, silk, hemp, and various chemical fibers into colorful fabrics, while the garment industry turns these fabrics into various styles of clothing. In addition to meeting the clothing needs of people of all ages, it also provides functional industrial textiles for different industries. China is a major textile country. The textile and garment industry not only ensures the clothing needs of nearly 1.3 billion people but also earns a significant amount of foreign exchange for the country through exports, holding an important position in the national economy. With economic globalization and China's accession to the WTO, the process of transforming China into a textile power will accelerate. The connection between China's textile and garment industry and related industries abroad will become closer, and exchanges will become more frequent. To adapt to this situation, the "English-Chinese Abbreviations and Vocabulary for Textiles and Garments" is dedicated to the textile and garment industry, aiming to provide some assistance to those engaged in textile and garment research, production, and foreign trade. This vocabulary primarily references domestic and international textile and garment professional dictionaries, English-Chinese economic and trade and chemical and chemical engineering abbreviations dictionaries, as well as large-scale comprehensive English-Chinese abbreviations dictionaries.
