Global Bio-based Polyamide Fiber Supply, Demand and Key Producers, 2026-2032
Description
The global Bio-based Polyamide Fiber market size is expected to reach $ 285 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 7.5% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).
Bio-based polyamide fiber refers to a class of synthetic fibers derived wholly or partially from renewable biological sources rather than traditional fossil fuels. These fibers are a sustainable alternative to conventional polyamides (commonly known as nylons), which have historically been produced from petroleum-based monomers such as adipic acid and hexamethylenediamine. In contrast, bio-based polyamides utilize bio-derived monomers, such as sebacic acid obtained from castor oil or other plant-based oils, and are often produced through green chemistry routes that minimize environmental impact. Common examples of bio-based polyamides include PA 410 (polyamide 4,10), PA 610 (polyamide 6,10), and PA 11 (polyamide 11), which can offer similar or even superior performance compared to their petrochemical counterparts in terms of mechanical strength, abrasion resistance, thermal stability, and chemical durability.
The market for bio-based polyamide fiber is a growing and strategically important niche within the broader synthetic fiber and bioplastics markets. It aligns with the global trend toward decarbonization, circular economy principles, and the substitution of fossil-derived materials with renewable alternatives. The textile industry—one of the largest users of synthetic fibers—has faced increasing scrutiny over its environmental footprint, including its heavy reliance on petroleum-based synthetics. As consumers, regulators, and brand owners push for more sustainable material options, bio-based polyamide fibers are gaining momentum as a practical solution that bridges performance with eco-friendliness. These fibers are particularly attractive for high-performance apparel (e.g., sportswear, outdoor gear), automotive interiors, technical textiles, and even fashion applications, due to their excellent moisture management, resilience, dyeability, and resistance to wear.
One of the key drivers of growth in the bio-based polyamide fiber market is the increasing demand for sustainable and functional materials, particularly in developed markets such as Europe, North America, and parts of Asia-Pacific. Europe has been a pioneer in adopting bio-based polyamides, driven by ambitious climate policies, corporate ESG goals, and a robust circular economy agenda. Major global brands like Patagonia, The North Face, and Stella McCartney have explored or adopted bio-based fibers as part of their sustainability initiatives. In addition, bio-based polyamides are gaining traction in the automotive sector, where lightweight and durable materials are needed to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. The fibers can be used in carpeting, seat fabrics, and trim applications, replacing heavier and less sustainable options.
Global 5 largest manufacturers of Bio-based Polyamide Fiber are Radici Group, Cathay Industrial Biotech, Fulgar SpA, Indorama Ventures and Eco-Nylon, which make up over 30%. Among them, Radici Group is the leader with about 20% market share. Asia-Pacific is the largest market, with a share about 40%, followed by Europe and North America, with the share about 25% and 30%. In terms of product type, PA610 occupy the largest share of the total market, about 40%. And in terms of product Application, the largest application is Clothing, followed by Military.
