Market Overview:
The global wet glass fiber nonwoven 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 roofing materials, industrial filtration, and floor coverings across the globe. Additionally, rising awareness about hygiene and growing construction activities are also propelling the growth of this market. On the basis of type, long glass fiber nonwovens are expected to account for a larger share in terms of revenue in 2018 as compared to short glass fiber nonwovens. This can be attributed to their superior properties such as high tensile strength and stiffness when compared with short glass fibers. On the basis of application, roofing material is projected to account for a major share in terms of revenue by 2030 owing to its growing demand across residential and commercial buildings worldwide.
Product Definition:
A wet glass fiber nonwoven is a fabric made from short fibers of glass that are formed into a web while the fibers are still wet. The importance of wet glass fiber nonwovens is that they have high strength and can be used in many applications, such as filtration, insulation, and reinforcement.
Long Glass Fiber:
Long glass fiber, also known as fiberglass or wet glass fiber, is a type of synthetic long-chain polymer. It is produced by the fusion process and has high tensile strength & durability along with superior resistance to abrasion. The product finds application in various industries including construction, automotive & transportation and marine which are further expected to drive its demand over the forecast period.
Short Glass Fiber:
Short glass fiber (SGF) is a type of fiberglass with short fibers. It has high tensile strength and durability as compared to long glass fibers. SGF is used in wet glass fiber nonwovens industry owing to its superior properties such as high stiffness, low flammability, less weight, and easy processing ability among others.
Application Insights:
The global market is segmented by application into roof material, industrial filtration, drywall, electronics and cars, floor covering, and others. The other applications include sanitary ware (garden hoses), textile manufacturing (roofing materials), geotextiles (flooring underlayment), and geomembranes (drainage systems).
The roof material segment accounted for the largest share in 2016. This is attributed to increasing demand from residential as well as commercial buildings for waterproofing applications. Furthermore, growing emphasis on green building construction coupled with rising concerns over global warming due to increase in greenhouse gas emissions has increased the adoption of eco-friendly products such as wet glass fiber nonwovens that are environment-friendly too. These factors are expected to drive product demand over the forecast period.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in terms of revenue with a share of over 40% in 2017. The region is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to rapid industrialization and urbanization, which are likely to generate substantial demand for construction materials such as glass fiber nonwovens. In addition, rising disposable income levels and growing population are anticipated to fuel product consumption across various end-use industries such as automotive, electronics and appliances, construction industry etc., thereby driving regional growth.
The Asia Pacific was followed by Europe with a share of nearly 28% in terms of volume in 2017 on account of high demand from several major end-use industries including drywall, flooring tiles/ carpets/mats etc. Rising consumer awareness regarding energy conservation coupled with stringent government regulations pertaining energy consumption is projected to augment the use nonwoven products like geotextiles & geomembrane for soil stabilization purposes will drive product demand further over the forecast period.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from end-use industries such as automotive, construction, and aerospace due to its superior properties such as thermal insulation, acoustic insulation, and weight reduction.
- Growing popularity of composites in the transportation sector due to their lightweight and high strength-to-weight ratio.
- Rising demand for wet glass fiber nonwovens in filtration applications owing to their high porosity and permeability characteristics.
- Increasing investments by manufacturers in R&D activities to develop new products with better performance attributes.
- Growing demand for sustainable materials that can be used in place of traditional materials such as plastics
