Polypropylene fabrics are used to manufacture baby diapers, surgical gloves, and sanitary products in healthcare industry. Additionally, they are used in hernia and pelvic organ prolapse operation in order to prevent infections. Durability and cost effectiveness as compared to natural fibers like jute and cotton is likely to aid the growth of polypropylene fiber market.
The outbreak of coronavirus has badly impacted the polypropylene fiber market. It has disrupted the supply chain all over the world. Manufacturing industries have stopped their production units. Decrease in purchasing capital has directly impacted the automotive, and textile industries which in turn affected the growth of global polypropylene fibers market. According to the Society of India Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM), passenger vehicle sales declined by 51% to 143,014 units in March 2020 whereas the sales of commercial vehicles crashed by 88%. Furthermore, decrease in construction activities due to lockdown has also hampered the growth of global polypropylene fibers market.
Geography- Segment Analysis
APAC dominated the global polypropylene fibers market with a share of more than 35%, followed by North America and Europe. Growing construction activities and rise in disposal income are propelling the growth of polypropylene market in developing nations. According to trade map 367,415 tons of staple polypropylene fibers were imported worldwide in 2018. Advancement of construction activities and use of polypropylene fiber reinforced concrete in earthquake prone countries like China, Japan and Indonesia is accelerating the growth of polypropylene fibers market. Polypropylene fibers are used to enhance the flexural tensile strength and post cracking ductile behavior of concrete. Additionally, huge demands of automobile and fabrics has also fueled the polypropylene market in this region.
Drivers –Global Polypropylene Fibers Market
- Growing demand in various end use industries
Polypropylene fibers find its application in almost every industry from automotive to textile. Rapid increase in population and industrialization are the major factors driving the growth of polypropylene markets. Polypropylene are used in luggage compartments, under shields, floor carpet systems, wheel arch liners and seam reinforcement in automobile industry. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), global stock of electric passenger cars increased by 63% reaching 5 million in 2018. Thus, increase in demand of electric vehicles also augments the growth of polypropylene fibers market.
Challenges – Global Polypropylene Fibers Market
- Flammability, environmental impact and government regulations on polypropylene fibers
Polypropylene fibers has low melting point and catches fires easily. Due to their ease of catching fire, they are avoided in many applications of apparels and household industries. Polypropylene fibers are chemical as well as microbial resistant and their disposal is a major concern. Disposal of polypropylene fibers has adverse effects on environment and human health as they pollute soil and decreases its fertility. Moreover, government regulations to minimize the use of polypropylene fibers, and focus towards sustainability is retarding the growth of global polypropylene market.
Market Landscape
