The company drives innovation through sustainable initiatives, such as expanding its Naia fiber portfolio in February 2020 with eco-conscious cellulosic staple fibers for fashion and launching new grades for 3D printing by 2024. Eastman maintains a strong North American presence while expanding in Asia, focusing on green manufacturing and strategic partnerships to secure market dominance in textiles, cigarette filters, and plastics. Its Acetate Tow brand holds significant recognition, balancing performance with biodegradability to meet rising demand in emerging economies.

Celanese Corporation, another US giant, excels in high-performance polymers, particularly through breakthroughs like the October 2020 launch of BlueRidge Cellulosic Pellets, a bio-based, compostable material aligning with ESG goals. Headquartered in the US, Celanese leverages expertise in composite integration for automotive lightweighting and electronics miniaturization, while expanding manufacturing capacity and distribution networks globally. The company dominates in cigarette filters and textiles, capitalizing on Asia-Pacific's 57.54% market share in 2024, and pursues acquisitions to bolster its semi-fragmented market position.
