Global non-woven materials market is projected at USD 56.8 billion in 2024, driven by rising demand across hygiene products, medical non-wovens, automotive applications, construction, filtration, and sustainable packaging sectors. Asia-Pacific dominates with a 51% share, fueled by rapid population growth, increasing disposable incomes, large-scale hygiene adoption, and expanding healthcare infrastructure in China and India. North America and Europe remain high-value, mature markets, underpinned by regulatory requirements for medical-grade non-wovens, ESG-compliant materials, automotive lightweighting, and eco-friendly packaging initiatives. non-woven industry expansion is supported by urbanization, aging populations, post-pandemic healthcare investments, biodegradable fibers, and rising awareness of sustainable textiles, while supply chains face challenges from polypropylene (PP), polyester (PET), viscose resin price volatility, and machinery cost fluctuations.
