The Non-Woven Fabric Market is anticipated to touch the total worth of USD 53.5 billion by the year 2030. It is foreseen that the non-woven fabric market will rise with a CAGR of 7% throughout the forecasted period.
Textile nonwovens consist of strands of fabric that are neither knitted nor woven and are therefore not woven or knitted. Polypropylene is a thermoplastic material that can be converted into fabric or material that is recyclable. Through a chemical process and heat, it can be produced in countless designs and colors. This material is then compressed into a fabric-like material that is soft to the touch and can be stitched into bags, packaging materials, and face masks. Contrary to plastic, this material can be recycled, which makes it less hazardous to the environment.
The covid19 is affecting millions of people around the world. In all industries except for pharmaceuticals, it has adversely affected the functioning of the industry. The current economic crisis has resulted in a lockdown in almost all countries. Shortly, travel across borders will not be possible due to the closure of the borders. A lot of businesses, including textile and apparel businesses, will cease operations. Despite a rapid increase in the demand for medical gear and clothing, the nonwoven fabric market share has increased.
The key players on the market were commissioned to produce Personal Protection Equipment (PPE kits) by governments from all over the world. Surgical masks, disposable masks, filtration masks, and all types of masks are enormously required. Manufacturers of nonwoven fabrics meet this demand. The non-woven fabric market growth has been experiencing a strong boost
Several major players in the global nonwoven fabric market are involved in the data analysis:
It is essential in the medical industry, automotive industry, and personal care & cosmetic industry to use non-woven fabrics. With the global pandemic that has afflicted the world, the demand for surgical drapes and gowns has risen dramatically. In addition to tote bags, the non-woven plastic fabric is used in the manufacture of non-woven plastic fabric bottles. In place of traditionally used plastic carry bags, this new fabric tote bag completely replaced them.
Automobile producers are interested in non-woven fabrics. In addition to being employed for the manufacture of car mats, covers, window frames, sun shields, and various filters, it is also used for the production of various filters. Consequently, the nonwoven fabric industry has grown at a rapid pace. Buildings were previously constructed with polyurethane foams; now, they are constructed with nonwoven fabric. Consequently, nonwoven fabric has also become more available.
Synthetic or fabricated raw materials are used to make textile nonwovens. As a result of the production process, hazardous waste is disposed of in significant quantities. The availability of cost-effective raw materials is also challenging. Considering that the materials needed for its creation are plentiful, nonwoven fabric can be produced relatively cheaply. Some materials, like carbon fiber and glass fiber, are not readily available or are extremely expensive.
Industry leader, Geotextile, is highly dependent on the non-woven fabric market value. With the improvement of infrastructural equipment, non-woven materials are also in growing demand. Non-woven fabric is used to manufacture greenhouse shade nets. Green-fingered people are also purchasing artificial turf for their gardens which uses non-woven fabric as its basic material. In the medical and hygiene industries, a great deal of this material is used. As a result, nonwoven fabrics have contributed to the increased standard of living of individuals.
Various technologies can be used to manufacture nonwoven fabrics, including dry-lamination, wet-laying, spinning, and carding. Spin-bound technology accounts for a large percentage of global nonwoven fabric sales. Spun-bound materials are generally stronger and of higher quality due to their additional strength.
Market segments can be determined for nonwoven fabrics in the global market. The categories that we consider are material, technology, function, and application.
Nonwoven fabrics are made up of various materials such as polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), rayon, and wood pulp. A major share of the nonwoven fabric industry is accounted for by polypropylene. In 2014, this industry accounted for 65 percent of total market production.
Manufacturing nonwoven fabrics may be based on dry-laying, wet-laying, spinning, carding, and other technologies. A large share of the global nonwoven fabric market is produced by spun-bound technology. Essentially, spun-bound material is stronger and of higher quality due to its extra strength.
Various types of nonwoven fabrics are available, including disposable and non-disposable fabrics. Since they do not cause an environmental crisis, disposable fabrics are more widely accepted worldwide.
The nonwoven fabric industry produces a wide variety of goods, such as hygiene & medical products, consumer products, building & construction products, geotextiles, and agriculture & horticulture products.
In recent years, the nonwoven fabric market has grown significantly. Today, the nonwoven fabric market is becoming an essential part of life in every country. Their operations range from America to Europe to Asia-Pacific, and the rest of the world.
Among the world's largest nonwoven fabric producers, China, Japan, India, Australia, and South Korea are located in Asia-Pacific. Approximately 40% of all global production in this area occurs in this area. The non-woven fabric market is dominated by India, South Korea, and China.
The region of North America (the U.S. and Canada) and Latin America is regarded as the second-largest hub for the production of nonwoven fabric due to the development of infrastructure and construction activities.
In Europe, which includes Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Russia, and Italy, automobiles are the most common form of transportation. This region has quickly risen in the utilization of non-woven fabrics because they are highly demanded by the automotive industry.
