The exports in the countries like Latin America, North America and Middle East is also noteworthy. New destinations like USA, Mexico, France, Turkey and India have new developing markets which are the reasons for the rise in the demand of progress. These destinations are five most targeted destinations for exports of textile machinery in the year 2006.
Geographical Distribution and Production
The good research & Development and innovations lead Spain in the global market in the technical textiles. The investment by this sector is 2.30 billion Euros in research and development projects and 4.60 billion Euros in new facilities and capital goods. The production in different regions of Spain is 3% in Valencia, 64% in Catalonia and 32% in Madrid of total sales. There are only two companies in Madrid though its contribution is of 32%.
