Industrial Non-woven Materials Market to Witness Exponential Growth by 2026
Industrial
non-woven materials consist of crisscross, random, or parallel laid
thermoplastic fibers that are bound together by using adhesives. They
are used in a wide array of industries including automotive, textile,
medical, and packaging for the purpose of insulation, filtration, and
cushioning. They possess properties such as flame retardency,
resistance to water and solvents, chemical and mechanical stability,
stretch, softness, and strength.

Industrial Non-woven Materials Market: Overview
In
terms of technology used, the global industrial non-woven materials
market has been segmented into spun-laid, dry-laid, wet-laid, and
others. The spun-laid technology segment can be sub-divided into
spun-bound, spun-melt-spun, and melt-blown. The dry-laid technology
segment can be sub-segmented into needle-punched, spun-lace,
thermal-bonded, air-laid, and carded. Based on material type, the
industrial non-woven materials market has been segregated into
polypropylene, polyethylene, polyester, nylon, polyurethane, and
rayon. In terms of end-user industry, the industrial non-woven
materials market has been classified into automotive, building &
construction, manufacturing & industrial, electronics,
insulation, footwear, personal care, packaging, and others.
Automotive is the leading end-user industry segment of the industrial
non-woven materials market. Industrial non-woven materials are
employed in making interior and exterior parts of vehicles. They also
contribute to light-weighting of the vehicle to improve fuel
efficiency.
Global
Industrial Non-woven Materials Market: Trends & Developments
Industrial
non-woven materials are widely used in health care and medical sector
for making disposable baby care and feminine health products. Growing
population and awareness regarding health and hygiene would prove to
be a driving factor for the industrial non-woven materials market in
the near future. Another emerging application of industrial non-woven
materials lies in geotextiles, which improve the durability of roads.
The geotextiles segment currently holds a very low share of the
industrial non-woven materials market. However, the segment has high
growth potential, due to rising sophistication in the infrastructure
development. Maintenance costs involved in the use of geotextiles are
high. This proves to be a restraining factor for the geotextiles
segment. Plastics is the raw material used for the manufacture of
geotextiles, which is prone to price fluctuations. Also, stringent
government regulations imposed on the manufacture of geotextiles are
likely to hamper the demand for industrial non-woven materials market
to a certain extent in the next few years.
Global
Industrial Non-woven Materials Market: Regional Outlook
Asia
Pacific is the leading consumer of industrial non-woven materials
across the world. The industrial non-woven materials market in Europe
and North America are estimated to witness growth at a moderate pace
during the forecast period. Growth of medical and health care
industries in these regions is a major driving factor for the
industrial non-woven materials market in these regions. Asia Pacific
is estimated to be the rapidly expanding industrial non-woven
materials market during the forecast period, due to high demand for
industrial non-woven materials market from various end-user
industries in the region. Latin America and Middle East & Africa
are relatively small industrial non-woven materials markets and are
expected to witness moderate rise in the demand in the near future.
