textile - originally, a woven fabric; now applied generally to any one of the following: (1) staple fibers and filaments suitable for conversion to or use as yarns, or for the Preparation of woven, knit, of nonwoven fabrics. (2) yarns made from natural or manufactured fibers. (3) fabrics and other manufactured products made with fibers as defined above from yarns. (4) garments and other articles fabricated from fibers, yarns, or fabrics when products retain the characteristics flexibility and drape of the original fabrics.this definition from the Academy of Textiles and Flooring Floorcovering Dictionary
Manufactured Fabrics are usually made of filaments extruded as liquid and formed into various fibers. These fabrics are Nylon, Polyester, Rayon, Spandex, Acrylic, Acetate and Lastex. Because the fiber starts as a liquid, many of the fibers are colored before they become filament, thus they are difficult to dye after the fiber is woven into a fabric.
Manufactured fibers are made from chemicals. :D
Metallic fibers are manufactured fibers composed of metal, plastic-coated metal, metal-coated plastic, or a core completely covered by metal. Gold and silver are the most common metallic fabrics.
Kevlar is sewn in the same manner as other fabrics. Kevlar is manufactured in the form of fine fibers and made into thread which is twisted into rope or woven into fabric.
Velvet is a fabric. Cotton, wool, and silk are fibers. An easy way to remember is that fabrics are fabricated. Fibers are materials. Fibers and materials are fabricated into fabrics.

Manufactured fibers are made fromfrom substances such as wood pulp, petroleum, and other chemicals.
Tthere is no difference between manufactured and synthetic fibers. Manufactured literally means hand (manu as in manual) made (factured as in factory), and synthetic means artificial; not found in nature. Synthetic fibers are made.
