Market Dynamics
Introduction
Polyolefin fibers are synthetic fibers in which the fiber-forming substance is any long-chain synthetic polymer composed of at least 85% by mass of ethene, propene, or other olefin units. They are known for their lightweight, high strength, and excellent resistance to moisture, chemicals, and abrasion.
These fibers are widely used in various applications, including textiles, geotextiles, packaging, and automotive industries. Due to their low density, they offer good bulk and coverage properties, making them suitable for use in nonwoven fabrics, ropes, and upholstery. Additionally, polyolefin fibers are recyclable and have a low environmental impact compared to other synthetic fibers.
Market Drivers
Major factors such as increasing demand for polyolefin fiber from the textile industry due to its superior properties such as flame retardancy, resilience, and softness are driving the market growth. In addition, the use of polyolefin fiber by the medical industry is increasing at a very fast pace. Rising health concerns among consumers are driving the demand for hygiene products.
COVID-19 Impact
The sudden outburst of the pandemic trashed the market hope. As a result, the industries recorded a massive decline in 2020 across regions due to lockdowns across nations, limited availability of raw materials, supply chain disruption, and production halts. The grave impact of this was registered for the polyolefin fiber market in 2020.
