Polypropylene Nonwoven Fabrics Market : A Strong Growth Outlook from 2023 to 2035
Global Polypropylene Nonwoven Fabrics Market Key Insights
During the forecast period of 2023-2035, the global polypropylene nonwoven fabrics market is expected to reach an estimated value of ~USD 55 billion by 2035, by expanding at a CAGR of ~6%. The market further generated a revenue of ~USD 31 billion in the year 2022. Major key factors propelling the growth of polypropylene nonwoven fabrics market worldwide are the rising application of polypropylene nonwoven fabrics in healthcare sector, and growing awareness regarding hygiene and sanitation.
Market Definition of Polypropylene Nonwoven Fabrics
The thermoplastic material known as polypropylene (PP) nonwoven fabrics is created by fusing together fiber web, sheet, or web assemblies by entangling short or long fibers using mechanical, chemical, or thermal processes. The textile engineering industries are the principal users of these materials. Porosity, thermal insulation, elasticity, microbiological barrier, flame retardancy, liquid repellency, strength, acoustic insulation, and washing ability are just a few of the noteworthy qualities that PP nonwoven fabrics offer.
Global Polypropylene Nonwoven Fabrics Market: Growth Drivers
The growth of the global polypropylene nonwoven fabrics market can majorly be attributed to the growing demand for personal hygiene products. These personal hygiene products include, napkins, sanitary pads, diaper, wet wipes, and more. However, traditional napkins contain a lot of synthetic elements, such metal dyes that cause allergies, rayon dioxin, and highly processed wood pulp, which could result in infections, irritation, and allergies. Additionally, following continuous use, some of these substances could result in cancerous disorders. Hence, most women worldwide are becoming more likely to use polypropylene nonwoven goods such as sanitary pads and napkins as a result of rising understanding of these negative impacts. In India about 63% of women use sanitary pads. However, in many parts of the world women lacks adequate facilities for menstrual hygiene. At least 500 million women and girls worldwide lack access to basic menstrual hygiene management facilities (MHM). Women and girls may face significant challenges as a result of inadequate WASH (water, sanitation, and hygiene) facilities, particularly in public settings such as schools, workplaces, or health clinics. Hence in order to spread awareness among women government is taking initiatives. For instance, Maharashtra’s Department of Rural Development launched the Asmita Yojana in 2018. As part of this program, SHGs bought sanitary products from vendors, registered on a mobile app, and distributed them to Asmita cardholders, primarily teenage females who are enrolled in school, for USD 0.060 per pack. Hence growing awareness among people regarding personal hygiene is further estimated to drive the market growth.
The global polypropylene nonwoven fabrics market is also estimated to grow majorly on account of the following:
- Growing Demand for Medical Coveralls
- Rising Application in Healthcare Sector
- Surge in Demand for Geotextiles
Global Polypropylene Nonwoven Fabrics Market: Restraining Factor
The cost of the crude oil needed to make polypropylene affects the price of polypropylene. Crude oil prices fluctuate significantly caused by shifts in the socio-political climate throughout the world brought on by conflict and natural disasters, which have a negative impact on the manufacturing of PP nonwoven fabrics. The price of PP nonwoven fabrics rises as a result of the rising cost of raw materials, which could lower demand for the fabric used to make masks, sanitary pads, sanitary napkins, and baby diapers. The 2022 conflict between Russia and Ukraine increased crude oil prices, which had an impact on the manufacturing of polypropylene and led to a decrease in the production of PP nonwoven fabrics. The market for polypropylene nonwoven fabric may not expand as anticipated owing to the erratic nature of crude oil prices.
Global Polypropylene Nonwoven Fabrics Market Segmentation
- By Application (Interlining, Medical Coveralls, Masks, Filters, and Others)
The masks segment is anticipated to hold the largest market share over the forecast period. The growth of this segment can be attributed to growing demand for mask owing to the spread of covid19. In 2020, 52 billion disposable face masks were created (this includes N95 respirators and surgical masks). Also, UNICEF has provided 385 million surgical masks and 23.3 million N95 respirators to 134 countries since the outbreak began. Even after lifting up the lockdown and declaring wearing mask is not mandatory, people still preferred wearing it. In a survey conducted this spring by the Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF), 81% of Black Americans indicated they wore a mask all or most of the time when they were inside in public places. Hence the demand for mask is still accepted to boost therefore further anticipating the growth of the market.
