Dublin, Feb. 27, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Polypropylene (PP) Nonwoven Fabric Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Application (Hygiene, Medical, Furnishings, Geotextiles), By Product (Meltblown, Staple, Spunbonded), And Segment Forecasts, 2019 - 2025" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global polypropylene nonwoven fabric market size is expected to reach USD 33.23 billion by 2025 expanding at a CAGR of 6.4%

Rising demand for PP nonwoven fabrics from geotextile in railway, highway, and airport projects and water conservancy is expected to boost the PP Nonwoven Fabric market growth over the forecast period. Such fabrics are used in personal hygiene products including baby diapers, sanitary napkins, training pants, wet and dry wipes, and cosmetic applicators. Various properties of the product, such as excellent absorption, softness, stretchability, strength, tear resistance capacity, and breathability, enable its application in the personal hygiene industry.

High demand for baby diapers in emerging regions, such as the Asia Pacific, on account of rising awareness regarding infant hygiene products will contribute to the market growth. However, developed economies, such as U.S., Europe, and Japan, are likely to witness sluggish growth. Companies in the industry have undertaken several strategies, such as M&A and capacity expansion, to strengthen their industry position. However, volatility in the price of raw materials, such as petroleum, naphtha, and propylene, is anticipated to hamper the product demand over the forecast period.

Further key findings from the study suggest:

• Spunbonded technology accounted for 45.5% of the global share in 2017 on account of its attributes, such as low cost, easy production process, and high process efficiency
• The furnishings segment is expected to witness a CAGR of 7.8% from 2018 to 2025. The product is used in this segment due to its properties, such as good cushioning washability
• Asia Pacific accounted for a significant share of the global market in 2017 and will expand further due to growing population and awareness about hygiene products in the region
• Central & South America is expected to witness growth at a CAGR of 7.3% on account of increasing healthcare expenditure coupled with economic recovery in the region
• Major companies in the industry are focusing on improving their sales through novel product development and increased production to obtain a significant share in the market.
