Textile Market size is forecast to reach US$374.1 billion by 2026, after growing at a CAGR 4.2% during 2021-2026. Globally, the rising demand for apparel from the fashion sector, as well as the rise of e-commerce platforms is expected to drive the Textile Market growth. There is an increasing demand for nonwoven geotextiles over geocells and geogrids for constructing roads, pavements, buildings, and dams as it has more absorption capacity. With growing geotextiles demand for new applications are providing spun bonded polyester nonwoven market growth opportunities. Furthermore, the increasing R&D investmentsto expand the scope of application of nonwoven fabrics is estimated to drive the growth of the textile industry over the forecast period.

According to European Disposables and Nonwovens Association (EDANA), around 750 sq.km of nonwoven geotextiles are manufactured and sold every year, 60% of which are used in the construction of roads. According to the Ministry of Textiles, in 2019, India had 40 geotextiles projects for roads, water reservoirs, and slope stabilization. Apart from construction, geotextile is now gaining popularity in other applications such as mining, oil drilling sites, shale gas, and others. The usage of geotextile tubes is steadily increasing in the marine coast, as these are used for preventing the coastal erosion that occurred due to the rise in the level of the oceans and seas because of the increasing temperature. For instance, the government has installed geotextile tubes along the Bay of Bengal coastline, the coastal areas of Malad, Mumbai, along the Uppada Sea Wall, Andhra Pradesh and in other coastal areas in India. Geotextiles can prevent adjacent soil layers or fill materials from intermixing. In filtration applications, nonwoven geotextiles are used to retain soil particles while allowing the passage of liquids through the filter media. These benefits of geotextile are encouraging the players to develop geotextile systems for particular applications. For instance, in October 2015, Huesker had launched the SoilTain Protect geotextile system for the international mining community. Several institutes, organizations, and associations are collaborating with the companies for the installation of the geotextile tubes. For instance, in September 2017, the National Agricultural Research and Extension Institute (NAREI) had signed a $13.8M contract with Samaroo Investment for the installation of geotextiles tubes. The contract includes the installation of the 100m geotextiles tubes to form groynes along the foreshore at Reliance, Essequibo. The demand for nonwoven geotextiles for these applications is expected to increase at a faster rate in the coming years, which will further provide the overall textiles market various opportunities.

Asia Pacific dominated the textile market in terms of revenue with a share of 36% in 2020 and is projected to dominate the market during the forecast period (2021-2026). As the newly emerging technological industry becomes the main axis of the developing economy in emerging economies, the textile industry still plays an important role in the traditional sector. Moreover, on the downstream and upstream segments, a total of 1,195 textile and apparel projects worth RM12.6 billion (US$ 3.02 million) combined were implemented as of December 2018. For the first half of 2019, MIDA approved an additional investment of RM94.4 million (US$ 22.6 million) for five projects, with RM120 million (US$ 28.8 million) still in the pipeline. Such investments by the Government of Malaysia have promoted the growth of the market. Thus, rising government investments will further drive the market growth for textiles during the forecast period.
