Global Polyester Fiber Market Drivers
Growing textile and apparel industries
The increasing demand for textile and apparel industries worldwide is a major factor estimated to boost the global polyester fiber market. This market is expected to surge in the coming years due to an increased demand for polyester fibers from the textile and apparel industries, as these industries have been growing at a steady pace. Governments of several countries' increasing investments in the textile industry have been a major factor in its boom.
For instance, the textile industry in India witnessed a significant surge in the past few years. The Invest India portal, in its report, stated that in 2023, the domestic apparel and textile industry contributed about 2.3% to the nation's GDP, about 13% to industrial production, and 12% to the nation's exports. The portal further stated that India has about 4.6% of the global textile and apparel trade market share. The report also noted that in 2023, India's textile and apparel industry was recorded at about US$ 160 billion. In the total fabric production in the fiscal year 2024, India produced about 952 million square meters of cotton yarn, whereas about 432 million square meters and 450 million square meters of blended 100% non-cotton yarn and man-made filament yarn, respectively. The nation also produced about 511 million square meters of man-made fiber during fiscal year 2024.
