Global Non-Woven Fabrics accounted for a market size of over USD 12 billion in the year 2019 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of more than 7% over the forecast period. Non-Woven Fabrics are products produced by different fabric manufacturing processes including other than knitting and weaving. The fabrics are prepared through the different processes including cross laid, parallel laid, or randomly laid webs that are bonded with the thermoplastic or adhesive fibers under pressure and heat application. Growing demand for the product from different end-users owing to the easy availability of the fibers and rising penetration in emerging countries is stimulating the industry size.
The global Non-Woven Fabrics market size is projected to reach over USD 67 billion by 2028. The product exhibits environment-friendly characteristics such as recyclability along with limiting natural resources utilization and minimizing toxic wastes. As a result, these products are witnessing escalated adoption across the different end-users. Furthermore, shifting living standards and changing consumption habits are further expected to complement the business upsurge.
The COVID-19 situation has obstructed the non-woven fabrics market growth. The pandemic has compelled industry players to halt operations across manufacturing facilities. The global lockdown has further impacted the supply chain, in turn, widening demand-supply mismatch. The operations across different end-use segments such as automotive, building & construction, filtration, automotive, and consumer products are further stalled, in turn, minimizing product demand. Although, the product application in medical and hygiene is upholding its demand surge owing to its usage in face masks, PPE gears, and medical materials. Furthermore, its escalated demand from the hygiene, and personal care sector, along with different industries focusing to resume operations briskly along with emphasis toward speedy economic recovery will escalate the business growth in the post-COVID era. The report will comprise the impact of COVID-19 situation over the industry.
