Fabric manufacturers are attracted to several new types of materials. However, many of these materials are priced higher than their aramid counterparts. Aramid sailcloth has an array of properties to display, which are helping them gain traction in the sailcloth market.
More traditionally, sailcloth is used to make tents and sails because they are sturdy and heavy fabric. Sail is a key strategic component supporting a boat structure. However, sunlight and sea wind can weaken their tensile strength.
Technological advancements witnessed in the last few years are intended to make the fabric stronger and more durable. Further, these technologies are used to spin the material in different forms to offer diverse applications.
These fabrics are derived from a range of materials such as flax and cotton and then processed into diverse forms to such as synthetic fibers, canvas, nylon, polyester, aramid, and cotton fiber. Fiber obtained from the process are highly durable and expensive and boasts a shelf life of over 10 years
Polyester and laminated sailcloth are in demand due to their longer lifespan and sturdy features. Cotton sailcloth have become popular due to their increasing use in upholstery and sportswear. Meanwhile Kevlar, nylon, and dyneema materials are used because there are durable and cost-effective.
The market in general will witness high demand from different categories of products. Despite several benefits such as UV light protection and better flexibility, sail cloth is not biodegradable. This stands as a negative attribute hampering growth prospects for the market.
Besides their poor ability of biodegrade, sails deposited in landfills show the tendency of unfurling, covering materials beneath them, all the while emitting toxic substances to the nature. It is difficult to establish the exact amount of sailcloth discarded every year.
More commonly unwanted sails end up mixing in household or commercial rubbish often classified as “unknown”. Inquiries by various government and non-government agencies are yet to provide any substantial information on the soaring problem. This could create bottlenecks for the sailcloth market in the near future.
Sailcloth tents have become increasingly popular and are used for decorations in various events, be it wedding or galas. An increasing number of organizers are choosing different styles of tent as per their requirement. According to FMI, this trend is showing no signs of slowing down and in the near future it will enable growth in the sailcloth market.
More event organizers are choosing sailcloth tents over traditional pagoda style tents or white vinyl party tents because the former offer better quality and durability. Sailcloth is often used for making tents to keep them in pristine condition for years.
Sailcloth tents also create a beautiful ambience for these events. Natural fibers used to make them create a translucent glow when the interior is lit properly. It given a sailcloth tent an appearance of a gigantic lampshade with light coming from underneath it when looked at from a distance.
Since consumers today have high standard of aesthetic sensibilities, sailcloth decorations please them more than traditional fabric. This factor solely is responsible for creating a lucrative segment in the sailcloth market.
North America and Europe have remained key markets for sailcloth driven by demand witnessed in the USA, the UK, and Germany. Besides this, Oceania will exhibit lucrative prospects for growth. According to FMI, the USA is one of the biggest production centers of sailcloth, followed by the UK. and Germany.
Besides, the UK. and Germany, the market in Europe is backed by the demand witnessed in countries such as France, Italy, and Switzerland. The region exhibits high investment in the market which will support its growth. FMI predicts the market to witness continued growth in Europe on account of various economic and social benefits it brings to the region.
The USA produces large volume of sailcloth every year for racing sails and cruising sails. It is also one of the major exporting countries in the market. In the coming years however the demand for sailcloth is expected to surge in high potential markets spurred by economic growth and the presence of a large base of population.
Both Asia Pacific and Oceania will therefore emerge as lucrative markets for sailcloth. The diversity of its uses will enable the market gain impetus in these regions. Higher sailing activities in Australia is forecast to support growth of the market in Oceania.
The sailcloth market is poised to witness surging demand, which is making it attractive for domestic companies. Entry of new and local players will make competition fiercer in the market. This has compelled leading companies to invest in innovations and various expansion strategies.
Some of the leading companies operating in the market are:
Artists and crafts people from across the world have displayed potential of sailcloth as a strong, durable, and lightweight material with ability of getting repurposed into a variety of products. Upcycled products made from sail cloth are practically of more value and interestingly more beautiful than original material.
