The usage of the nonwoven polyester fabric market is rising due to the inauguration of products with reduced costs in cost-sensitive hospitals. Several government initiatives have been taken to control HAIs (Hospital Acquired Infections) to promote the usage of nonwoven medical products like disposable patient gowns, linens, etc. It is also used in the construction of roads in the form of geotextiles for increasing the durability of roads. Also, the low maintenance costs associated with nonwovens are assumed to raise the demand in construction applications. Lastly, it is also used in the civil engineering sector for strengthening the embankments, which will be used in agricultural materials like anti-weed sheets in construction materials like- house wraps, household products, and roof linings.

One of the most important factors that will have a direct impact on the end-product market is the availability of raw materials, where more than 80% of the fibers of the raw materials are synthetic. Some of the raw material fibers are available in large quantities and at affordable prices in comparison to carbon fibers, glass fibers, etc. are costlier and are not easily available.

Enhancements in the technologies are also expected to pull down production costs, thereby, assimilating the non-woven textile that is commercially feasible. In addition to that, the incorporation of nanofiber and high-performance material technologies are also emerging as traditional membranes by creating new opportunities for nonwoven manufacturers.

According to Future Market Insights, Asia Pacific is said to be dominating the global nonwoven fabrics market. So, the rising population of China and India has expected to couple with the growth in their income levels for driving the demand for nonwoven fabrics in hygiene applications. China is said to be the largest consumer as reflected by the commission of their additional capacities leading to an increase in the production of non-woven fabric in the region.
