Global Non-Woven Fabrics Market

Fabrics refers to cotton, nylon, wool, silk, or other threads that are woven together to create cloth or other materials that are used to create items like clothing, drapes, and sheets. They are engaged in weaving fabrics, felts, and narrow fabrics, and they also further finish and fabricate fabric products. Fabrics are mainly used as raw materials for manufacturing apparel and home furnishings products. The main types of fabrics are non-woven fabrics, knitted fabrics, broadwoven fabrics, narrow fabric mills, and schiffli machine embroidery. Nonwoven fabric is a fabric-like textile composed of staple and long fibresfibers that have been chemically, mechanically, thermally, or solvently bound together. The different products include cotton fabric, linen fabric, silk fabric, canvas fabrics, polycotton fabric and others. Fabrics are used for the making of T-shirts, sportwear, outdoor clothing and performance wear. The fabrics market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides fabrics market statistics, including fabrics industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a fabrics market share, detailed fabrics market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the fabrics industry.

The global fabrics market grew from $107.48 billion in 2022 to $112.87 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.0%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The fabrics market is expected to grow to $131.72 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 3.9%. Increasing demand for online shopping is expected to drive the fabrics manufacturing market. Manufacturers can now sell their products on a larger platform than before, which will increase their customer base geographically driving the growth of the apparel manufacturing market. In countries such as India, for instance, e-commerce portals have boosted the sales of traditional garments by giving larger exposure to producers who were confined to one geography where the weaving community was located. The outbreak of Corona virus disease (COVID-19) has acted as a massive restraint on the fabrics manufacturing market in 2022 as supply chains were disrupted due to trade restrictions and consumption declined due to lockdowns imposed by governments globally. COVID-19 is an infectious disease with flu-like symptoms including fever, cough, and difficulty in breathing. The virus was first identified in 2019 in Wuhan, Hubei province of the People’s Republic of China and spread globally including Western Europe, North America and Asia. Steps by national governments to contain the transmission have resulted in halting of manufacturing activities and a decline in economic activity with countries entering a state of 'lock down' and the outbreak had a negative impact on businesses throughout 2021 and into 2021. However, it is expected that the fabrics manufacturing market will recover from the shock across the forecast period as it is a 'black swan' event and not related to ongoing or fundamental weaknesses in the market or the global economy.

Plasticizers are chemical additives used to increase the plasticity or fluidity of a material. Plasticizers have dominant uses in rubber, resins, and plastics, especially polyvinyl chloride (PVC). The product types of plasticizers are phthalate plasticizers, dop, dinp/didp/dphp, other non-phthalate plasticizers, dotp, adipates, trimellitates, epoxies, and benzoates. Phthalates are a group of chemicals that are used to make plastics more durable. A few of the phthalates are used to help dissolve other materials. Phthalates are in hundreds of products, like vinyl flooring, lubricating oils, and personal-care products like soaps, shampoos, and hair sprays. The distribution channels are online and offline. The various applications involved are flooring & walls, film & sheet coverings, wires & cables, coated fabrics, consumer goods, and other applications. The plasticizers market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides plasticizers market statistics, including plasticizers industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a plasticizers market share, detailed plasticizers market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the plasticizers industry. This plasticizers market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry. The global plasticizers market size will grow from $93.47 billion in 2022 to $100.74 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The global plasticizers market size is expected to grow from $132.63 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 7.1%. Rising demand for flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC) contributes to the growth of the plasticizer market. Flexible PVC is softer than unplasticized polyvinyl chloride (uPVC) due to the addition of plasticizers. The increasing demand for flexible PVC material in various end-use industries drives the demand for plasticizers. Flexible packaging provides long-lasting safety, lightweight, and compactness while maintaining a low carbon footprint, which increases demand for PVC from the packaging industry. The strict regulations on the use of phthalate plasticizers are limiting the growth of the plasticizer market. Phthalate plasticizers are the most commonly used plasticizers due to their easy availability and low cost. Several companies are moving away from phthalate plasticizers as a number of studies reveal the health effects caused by the use of plasticizers. However, non-governmental organizations such as the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) promote the use of non-phthalate plasticizers because of their environmentally friendly nature. The application of certain phthalates in many consumer products is prohibited in various countries. Directives such as the EEC Directive and other regulations in Europe ban the use of phthalate plasticizers in some applications. The European Parliament forbids the use of phthalate plasticizers such as DEHP, DBP, and BBP in toys and childcare products. Therefore, strict regulations on using phthalate plasticizers have a negative impact on the plasticizer market's growth. Eco-friendly plasticizers are increasingly being used to prevent harmful phthalate plasticizers such as DOP, DBP, BBP, and DEP. Eco-friendly plasticizers have various properties such as waterproofing with good electrical resistivity, weather resistance, better mechanical strength, and good heat stability. Due to these factors, phthalate plasticizers are being replaced with eco-friendly plasticizers. Eco-friendly plasticizers are polymer additives that improve a material's plasticity. The global eco-friendly plasticizer market is growing rapidly due to the increased demand for eco-friendly plasticizers to keep human health and the environment safe.
