Market Overview:
The global knitted fabrics market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period 2018-2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for knitted fabrics from various end-use industries such as clothing, automotive, construction, and medical. In terms of type, weft knitted fabrics are expected to dominate the global market during the forecast period owing to their high demand from clothing and automotive industries. Warp knitted fabrics are also anticipated to witness significant growth during the forecast period due to their growing demand from civil engineering and aerospace applications. Geographically, North America is estimated to lead the global market in terms of revenue in 2018 followed by Europe and Asia Pacific respectively.
Product Definition:
Knitted fabrics are made from yarn that has been knitted on a knitting machine. The fabric is created by interlocking loops of yarn, which are formed by knitting needles. Knitting creates a very stretchy fabric, which is why it is often used for garments that need to be form-fitting.
Weft Knitted Fabrics:
Weft knitted fabrics are those made by knitting or crocheting a single thread across one or more needles. The fabric is formed by weaving in and out of the stitches as the weft yarn is passed through each loop. It's easier to learn and quicker than plain knitting, making it a popular craft for children.
Warp Knitted Fabrics:
Warp knitted fabrics are made by knitting or crocheting two interlocked loops of yarn to form a fabric. The process is similar to that of weaving, but rather than being done with yarn, the material used is flexible synthetic fibers such as polyester and nylon. Warp knit fabrics have a more open structure compared to woven ones; they can be stretchy and allow air circulation.
Application Insights:
The clothing industry is the largest consumer of fabrics and accounts for a share of over 50.0% in 2017. The use of fabric in clothing application such as sportswear, casual wear, and fashion apparel drives the demand for knitted fabrics across the globe. Furthermore, increasing demand for sports shoes also contributes to segment growth globally.
The automotive industry is one of the major consumers of knitted fabrics owing to its rising requirement for soft materials that offer thermal insulation along with aesthetic appeal to vehicles produced by automakers including Ford Motor Company, General Motors Company, Toyota Motor Corporation etc. These companies are continuously trying to reduce vehicle weight as it improves fuel efficiency and reduces pollution on roads resulting in increased requirement for such soft materials used in manufacturing automobile interior components including seats & door panels among others which will drive market growth further during next eight years or so till 2030 globally speaking without much doubt at all!.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region is home to several emerging economies, including China, India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan. Increasing population coupled with rising living standards have spurred the demand for consumer goods such as clothing and footwear in this region. This has led to an increase in demand for various types of knitted fabrics across industries such as apparel & accessories; automotive; civil engineering; construction; agricultural & medical among others.
