The global non-woven fabrics market size is anticipated to reach around US$ 77,000 Mn by 2027 and growing at a CAGR of 7% during the forecast period 2020 to 2027.
Non-woven fabric is a fabric formed by long fibres which is collectively bonded by mechanical, chemical, and heat solvent treatment. Non-woven fabrics provide number of features which include liquid repellence, absorption, durability, folding, power, softness, flame retardance, wash-off, acoustic insulation, thermal insulation, filtration, bacterium barrier application, and sterility. Such properties are often combined to create textiles that are ideal for some jobs and achieve a reasonable balance between product life and cost. They can mimic the texture, structure and strength of a tissue and can be as comfortable as thick padding. Non-wovens offer a variety of products with specific properties and are used individually or as components of clothing, household appliances, food, electronics, automotive and consumer goods, in combination with other materials.
