Market Overview:
The global meltblown cloth market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for medical and clothing applications, and technological advancements in meltblown cloth production. Based on type, the global meltblown cloth market is segmented into polypropylene, polyurethane, and polylactic acid. Polypropylene is expected to account for a major share of the global market due to its properties such as high strength-to-weight ratio, chemical resistance, thermal stability, and low cost. Polyurethane is also anticipated to witness significant growth during the forecast period owing to its properties such as abrasion resistance and high tear strength. Based on application, medical accounted for a major share of the global Meltblown Cloth Market in 2017 due rising awareness about hygiene among consumers coupled with increasing demand from hospitals & clinics across regions. Clothing was another key application segment of Meltblown Cloth Market in 2017 owing growing popularity of sportswear globally coupled with rising disposable income levels across emerging economies such as China & India .
Product Definition:
Meltblown cloth is a type of nonwoven fabric that is made from polypropylene. It is produced by melting small pellets of polypropylene and then spraying the molten plastic onto a screen, where it spreads into a thin sheet. The sheet is then cooled and chopped into small fibers, which are spun into yarns or woven into fabrics. Meltblown cloth has many applications, including filters, medical bandages, and insulation.
Polypropylene:
Polypropylene (PP) is a synthetic, non-toxic, lightweight and durable plastic with excellent chemical & temperature resistance. PP is used in various industries including automotive components, consumer goods packaging and electrical appliances. The global polypropylene market size was estimated at USD 33 billion in 2015 owing to its increasing demand from the packaging industry which was further augmented by the growth of the retail sector especially e-commerce.
Polyurethane:
Polyurethane (PU) is a polymer, which is manufactured by the catalytic reaction of an organic compound with hydrogen. Polyurethane exhibits superior properties such as high strength, elasticity and durability in comparison to other synthetic polymers. It also has good resistance to abrasion and chemicals.
Application Insights:
The clothing application segment led the global market and accounted for more than 45% of the total revenue share in 2017. The demand from this end-use industry is witnessing a paradigm shift due to changing consumer trends towards wearable technology, which requires less fabric and higher durability.
The home sector is expected to emerge as the fastest-growing end-use industry over the forecast period on account of rising disposable income levels among consumers in developing countries such as China, India and Brazil. Moreover, increasing penetration of social media has created a high demand for decorative fabrics that are available at low prices but with superior quality compared to other traditional fabrics such as brocade or tartan. This trend will have an impact on overall product consumption over the next few years.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in terms of revenue with a share of over 40.0% in 2017. The region is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to increasing demand for medical and healthcare products, clothing, home d©cor products, and agriculture applications among others. Increasing population coupled with rising disposable income levels will drive product demand further.
The growing manufacturing sector in countries such as China and India are anticipated to propel Meltblown Cloth Market growth over the forecast period. In addition, favorable government regulations aimed at promoting domestic production output are likely to boost regional market development during the forecast years from 2018 to 2030 (except China).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from the medical and hygiene sectors
- Rising disposable income in developing countries
- Technological advancements in meltblown cloth production processes
- Growing popularity of eco-friendly products
- Rising awareness about the benefits of meltblown cloth
