Market Overview:
The global liquid fabric softener 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 factors such as rising demand for liquid fabric softeners from emerging economies, increasing disposable income of consumers, and growing awareness about the benefits of using liquid fabric softeners. The global liquid fabric softener market is segmented on the basis of type, application, and region. On the basis of type, the market is segmented into general fabric softener and environmental fabric softener. General Fabric Softener dominates the global Liquid Fabric Softener Market with a share of more than 60%. On account on application; clothing accounts for majority share in terms of value followed by home textile applications respectively.
Product Definition:
Liquid Fabric Softener is a chemical agent that is used to reduce the stiffness and increase the pliability of fabrics. It is usually applied in a diluted form to laundry before it is washed, but may also be sprayed or sprinkled on fabrics after they are dry. Liquid fabric softener leaves behind a coating on fibers that makes them feel softer and smoother. It also reduces static cling and helps fabrics resist wrinkles.
General Fabric Softener:
General fabric softener is a type of laundry additive that helps in preventing static and improving the softness of fabrics. It has surfactant properties which help in breaking down the surface tension between fibers, making it smoother and reducing wrinkles. The product also contains conditioning agents such as lanolin, coconut oil or glycerin which provide moisturizing effect to fabrics by coating their surfaces.
Environmental Fabric Softener:
Environmental fabric softener is a type of fabric softener that is free from all kinds of harmful chemicals. It does not contain any kind of phosphates, optical brighteners or any other kind of synthetic additives. The product has been designed to provide maximum comfort and softness to the wearer by absorbing the sweat off the skin and bringing in an refreshing fragrance.
Application Insights:
The clothing application segment led the global liquid fabric softener market in 2017 and is projected to expand at a revenue-based CAGR of XX% over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to increasing demand for sportswear across various geographies, including North America and Europe coupled with high product penetration in sports apparel manufacturing.
Liquid fabric softeners help remove moisture from fabrics such as polyester, cotton and blends thereof without affecting their texture or color. These ingredients act as an effective alternative to conventional dry cleaning solvents that are often hazardous and expensive to manufacture and source.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific was the largest market for liquid fabric softener, accounting for more than 35% of global revenue in 2017. The region is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period as well due to increasing product demand from countries such as China and India. Rapidly growing textile industry in these countries will drive product demand further.
North America is projected to be one of the fastest-growing markets with a CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2030 owing to high consumer awareness regarding health and hygiene along with changing lifestyles resulting into increased spending on clothing, home textiles among others applications Liquid fabric conditioners are used widely across North America especially in Canada.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from the textile industry for liquid fabric softener as a finishing agent to impart superior softness, static control and wrinkle resistance properties to fabrics.
- Rising consumer preference for convenience products such as liquid fabric softeners due to their ease of use and faster drying time as compared to traditional dryer sheets or fabric conditioners.
- Growing popularity of eco-friendly and natural liquid fabric softeners among consumers due to their non-toxic and biodegradable nature.
- Proliferation of online retail channels which offer a wider range of liquid fabric softener brands and variants compared to brick-and-mortar stores, thus enabling consumers greater choice in terms of product selection.
