Polypropylene Fiber Market Analysis
Polypropylene fiber, also known for the polypropene, is the synthetic fiber made from 85% propylene. It is the first stereoregular polymer considered as one of the fastest growing synthetic fibers. Polypropylene is a part of thermoplastics since it is moldable or pliable at a specific elevated temperature and solidifies upon cooling. It has low physical and heat resistance properties but has excellent chemical resistance to many acids and alkalis, and it can be easily processed at a low price. It is a lightweight fiber which does not absorb any moisture. Polypropylene fiber is used to in the production of a few hygiene products. It offers good heat insulating properties and lower thermal conductivity, so it is widely used for inner wear. From past two decades, textile, fabric, fiber, and carpet industry gave a new direction to polypropylene fiber market. It has number of applications in many industries. Some of them are health care sector, geotextile, automotive, home furnishing and agriculture.
COVID-19 Scenario Analysis:
The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the global polypropylene fiber market to a great extent.
- Textile sector is a highly unorganized sector. The government has initiated special measures to help ameliorate the conditions in the textile sector due to the pandemic and to boost production, marketing, and job opportunities in the sector. As production of mask, PPE kit experienced a surge, which required polypropylene, therefore, the growth of the polypropylene market was not much affected.
- As a result of the global economic slowdown caused by the pandemic, the production of medical, textile and hygiene products was increased significantly. This caused a steep rise in the demand for polypropylene fiber.
- Supply chain also got adversely affected due to COVID-19. Generally, all manufacturing industries as well as the end-user industries consumepolypropylene fiber, however, due to COVID-19, production in many industries was stopped or minimized, hence, there was some decline in the demand for polypropylene fiber
Top Impacting Factors: Market Scenario Analysis, Trends, Drivers and Impact Analysis
One of the major factors responsible for driving the growth of the global polypropylene fiber market is the rapid growth of pharmaceutical sector. Polypropylene fibers are used as a second seal, which is often mixed with cement to reduce shrinkage and control cracks in the construction industry. Polypropylene fiber is the best alternative to conventional fiber. There is a huge reduction in the cost of its products with the use of polypropylene fiber. The main use of polypropylene fiber in daily life is disposable fiber items, hygiene products like masks and tissues. Nowadays, polypropylene fiber is used in various applications, such as PPE kit, masks and others, which is expected to surge the demand for polypropylene fiber in the upcoming years.
In terms of market share, the Asia-Pacific region has a major share across the globe due to increased population and surged demand for polypropylene products. In Asia-Pacific, China and India are the major consumers of polypropylene fiber. In addition, China is the dominating country due to the presence of world’s largest electronics manufacturing infrastructure and capability.
