The strong demand for nonwoven fabric in APAC is notably driving the market growth, although factors such as high UV degradation of PP (Polypropylene) may impede the market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
One of the key factors driving growth in the spunbond nonwoven market is the strong demand for nonwoven fabric in APAC. The demand for finished goods in APAC witnessed an increase, regardless of a slowdown in the export business. The domestic consumption of textiles and clothing expanded to approximately two-thirds of the total supply. The increasing urbanization in China and increasing per capita consumption of spunbond nonwoven by the end-user industries in China have driven the expenditure on clothing.
Moreover, the markets in India and Pakistan are smaller than that of China as the major markets are still untapped in these countries. The current aggressive development of downstream polymer activities by companies such as Reliance Industries and Indorama Ventures is expected to drive the consumption of spunbond nonwoven during the forecast period.
Sustainable production is the primary trend in the global spunbond nonwoven market. The demand for eco-friendly textile products is increasing, and numerous companies have adopted eco-friendly practices. They have started producing eco-friendly products, which would ensure the safety of consumers and the environment. The increasing awareness among companies and consumers regarding the impact of non-sustainable products on the environment and human health are factors that drive the demand for sustainable products.
Moreover, there is a shift in preference from petroleum-based non-biodegradable synthetic fibers like polyester to renewable and biodegradable synthetic fibers manufactured from natural resources like polylactic acid and lyocell. The awareness of the rising environmental issues and the availability of numerous alternatives have compelled manufacturers in the industry to practice sustainability by adopting textile fibers. This will create new growth opportunities for the vendors in the global spunbond nonwoven market during the forecast period.
The high UV degradation of PP will be a major challenge for the spunbond nonwoven market during the forecast period. PP has many advantages, such as cost-effectiveness, flexural strength, low coefficient of friction, and chemical resistance, but it is prone to UV degradation. The polymer structure of PP is a single chain, and this bond tends to break when exposed to sunlight and heat. This UV degradation can occur during road construction operations.
Though PP geotextiles are predominantly used in road construction activities owing to their good fatigue resistance, their demand is likely to hamper due to UV degradation owing to the high exposure of roads to the harsh environment and heat. Such factors will pose a challenge to the market during the forecast period.
The report includes the adoption lifecycle of the market, covering from the innovator’s stage to the laggard’s stage. It focuses on adoption rates in different regions based on penetration. Furthermore, the report also includes key purchase criteria and drivers of price sensitivity to help companies evaluate and develop their growth strategies.

The polypropylene segment was valued at USD 6,449.04 million in 2017 and continued to grow by 2021. Geotextiles in the form of staple fibers are made from PP-based spunbond nonwovens. An irregularly woven mesh of polypropylene fibers gives the fabric high strength. These fibers can withstand UV rays. Plus, it won't mold or corrode when encountering inert chemicals in the soil. Additionally, the fibers are non-biodegradable and resistant to insect and rodent damage. These properties allow polypropylene fibers to filter water and drain it into the soil, strengthen the soil, and protect it from erosion. Such factors are expected to increase the demand for PP, which will have a positive impact on the market during the forecast period.
