Global Warp Knitting Machinery Supply, Demand and Key Producers, 2026-2032

The global Warp Knitting Machinery market size is expected to reach $ 900 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 3.7% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).

A warp knitting machine is a mechanical device used to manufacture warp-knitted fabrics by interlacing warp yarns (longitudinal yarns) into a mesh or woven structure. Its main characteristics are the rapid and precise arrangement of warp yarns using a needle bed, and the knitting process that interlaces the yarns into different structures. Unlike weft knitting machines, warp knitting machines typically produce fabrics with higher stability and elasticity, and are widely used to manufacture lightweight, highly elastic fabrics. In 2024, global warp knitting machine production reached approximately 12905 units, with an average global market price of around K US$ 51.24 per unit. Global production capacity in 2024 was approximately 17200 units. Upstream components include machined structures, knitting elements (needles/sinkers/guide bars), and motion-control/drive systems, typically sourced from Groz-Beckert, Kern-Liebers, SKF/NSK, Siemens/Beckhoff/Yaskawa. Downstream demand spans apparel/lingerie, sports & footwear, home textiles, technical textiles, and netting, with representative mills such as Haining Zhengda, Haining Fucheng, Haining Guangyu.

The warp knitting machinery market is technology-led (Germany/Italy/Switzerland) and scale-enabled (China/Taiwan/Korea). KARL MAYER leads in tricot/raschel and multiaxial solutions, while COMEZ/Jakob Müller excel in double needle bar and narrow fabrics. China’s clusters (Changzhou, Fujian, Zhejiang) provide competitive cost-to-performance for netting, window furnishing and footwear uppers. Demand is resilient in lingerie/swimwear, sportswear & footwear, home textiles, with incremental growth from technical textiles (auto interiors, medical meshes, geotextiles, composites).
