Based on our research output, there has been a neutral impact on the market growth during and post COVID-19 era. The growth of the textile industry in APAC is notably driving the cellulose acetate market growth, although factors such as stringent regulations and policies may impede market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the cellulose acetate industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Cellulose Acetate Market Driver
One of the key factors driving the global cellulose acetate market growth is the growth of the textile industry in APAC owing to its excellent comfort and strength and silky luster. For instance, in 2018, China and India collectively accounted for 58%-61% of the global textile market. Moreover, capacity expansions by textile vendors in APAC have contributed to the textiles market growth in APAC. In January 2019, Aditya Birla Management Corp. Pvt. Ltd. (Aditya Birla Management) proposed to invest USD 1.06 billion for setting up textile production units and capacity expansions in Gujarat, India. Thus, the emergence of India and China as the manufacturing hub for textiles in APAC is one of the major factors expected to drive the adoption of cellulose acetate during the forecast period.
Key Cellulose Acetate Market Trend
Another key factor driving the global cellulose acetate market growth is the product development of acetate filter tow. Companies, including Celanese and Cerdia International GmbH (Cerdia International), have developed new products with improved performance and durability. In June 2018, Celanese announced the launch of the newly regulated product (RP) category in the acetate tow market to encompass the complex and challenging regulatory frameworks. Moreover, in July 2017, Cerdia International introduced Cerdia DE-Tow, the cellulose acetate filter tow with enhanced biodegradability. The products undergo a minimum of 90% biodegradation after 56 days of disposal. The product was also certified by the independent certification body TUV Austria. Such product developments are expected to positively impact the global cellulose acetate market during the forecast period.
Key Cellulose Acetate Market Challenge
One of the key challenges to the global cellulose acetate market growth is the stringent regulations and policies. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) impose stringent regulations on the use of cellulose acetate as an indirect food additive. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) also imposes strict regulations on the use of cellulose acetate. Under the Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) 21 Part 175. The European Union (EU) specifies guidelines under the regulation EU- No 10/2011 on the use of indirect food additives, including cellulose acetate. Compliance with these standards increases the production cost. Thus, such policies are expected to restrict market growth during the forecast period.

COVID Impact and Recovery Analysis
The outbreak of COVID-19 had an adverse effect on several end-user industries in 2020. Countries such as China, India, Nepal, Pakistan, South Korea, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, and the Philippines declared either a partial or full lockdown due to the outbreak. As the mortality rate from COVID-19 is high, end-user manufacturers closed or halted their production units, which restricted the growth of the regional cellulose acetate market in 2020. However, with the lifting of lockdowns and restrictive measures, regional manufacturing industries are expected to grow gradually, which, in turn, will propel the growth of the regional cellulose acetate market during the forecast period.
