Nonwoven Fabrics Market By Polymer Type (Polypropylene (PP), Polyethylene (PE), .Polyethylene terephthalate (PET), Wood pulp, Rayon, Others), By Function (Disposables, Durables), By Technology (Spunbond, Dry laid, Air laid, Wet laid, Meltblown, Others), By Application (Hygiene, Wipes, Medical, Filtration, Automotive, Building and construction, Others): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2024-2033
Market Report I 2025-03-01 I 1147 Pages I Allied Market Research
The global nonwoven fabrics market size was valued at $58.4 billion in 2023, and is projected to reach $104.1 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 6% from 2024 to 2033.
Nonwoven fabric is a textile material made by bonding fibers together through heat, chemicals, or pressure, rather than weaving or knitting. Common manufacturing techniques include fiber entanglement and chemical or thermal bonding using materials like olefin, polyester, and rayon. Unlike traditional fabrics such as cotton, wool, linen, and silk, nonwoven fabrics are lighter and are used to produce items like interlinings, protective clothing, industrial uniforms, chemical-resistant suits, and footwear. Due to their versatility, nonwoven fabrics are widely utilized in industries including personal care and hygiene, automotive, healthcare, construction, and filtration.
The nonwoven fabrics market is experiencing growth due to rise in demand for nonwoven fabrics in hygiene products such as diapers, feminine care items, and medical supplies, as well as expanding applications in the automotive, filtration, and construction sectors. Rise in sustainability initiatives and developments in biodegradable nonwoven materials drive the market growth. For instance, in 2024, Freudenberg Performance Materials expanded its healthcare technologies to include bioresorbable nonwovens, initially targeting surgical hemostasis management. These nonwovens are made from materials that the body can absorb, eliminating the need for a second surgery to remove them. Future collaborations aim to offer solutions for bioactive wound healing, drug release, and regenerative medicine based on this technology.
However, the industry faces obstacles like volatile raw material prices and stringent environmental regulations. Nonwoven fabric production is highly dependent on petroleum-based raw materials, such as polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), and polyester (PET), which are derived from crude oil. Fluctuations in crude oil prices directly impact the cost of these synthetic fibers, leading to unpredictable production expenses for manufacturers. Despite these challenges, opportunities are emerging through eco-conscious innovations, broader use in healthcare, and rise in need for strong yet lightweight materials across various industries, all contributing to the market growth.
