Description

Global demand for technical textiles rose in value terms by an average of 5.2% per annum between 2022 and 2025. Furthermore, demand is forecast to rise by an average of 5.3% per annum between 2025 and 2027. Factors expected to support the growth in demand for technical textiles which has been forecast for the period between 2022 and 2027 include: rising birth rates, increasing populations and ageing populations; urbanisation; advances in manufacturing technologies; product innovation; a trend towards environmentally sustainable and biodegradable products; a trend towards lighter weight products; rising awareness of the benefits of technical textiles; an expanding number of end use applications; and increasingly stringent regulations. Geographically, the fastest growth in demand for technical textiles between 2022 and 2027 will be in the Asia-Pacific region and, as a result, Asia-Pacific will remain the largest regional market for technical textiles in 2027 with a 37.4% share of global demand. The most important type of material used in technical textiles is, by far, synthetic fibres. However, usage of natural fibres is forecast to grow at the fastest rate between 2022 and 2027. In terms of fabric type, demand is dominated by woven fabrics, although demand for nonwoven fabrics is forecast to grow at the fastest rate between 2022 and 2027. In terms of application area, the fastest growth over the five-year period is forecast to be in demand for technical textiles for environmental protection. However, the largest application area in 2027 will, by far, continue to be that of transportation construction, equipment and furnishing.
