Cellulose Fiber Market Analysis

Cellulose fibers are derived from plant stems called bast fibers. Cellulose fibers can be obtained naturally or synthetically. Growing demand for technical textiles and the adoption of cellulose fibers in medical applications drives the cellulose fiber market. Technical textiles are explicitly produced to serve a defined purpose and incorporate physical properties. Technical textiles are divided into several categories: protective textiles, sports textiles, transportation textiles, and medical and industrial textiles. Emerging environmental concerns have encouraged sustainable approaches throughout the technical textile supply chain. In 2021, the Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme was announced by the government of India, worth US$ 1.44 billion, for man-made fibers and technical textiles manufacturing over five years. The significant transition towards sustainable production and textiles further drives the market.

Cellulose Fiber Market Overview

Cellulose fiber is a natural fiber derived from cellulose, which is a complex carbohydrate. Natural cellulose fibers include cotton, linen, hemp, jute, kenaf, and bamboo. Regenerated cellulose fibers are produced by chemically dissolving and regenerating cellulose into fibers. The physical and chemical properties of natural and regenerated fibers vary depending on the source of cellulose and the regeneration process. Some common regenerated cellulose fibers include rayon, lyocell, modal, Tencel, and viscose. Cellulose fiber offers many properties, such as softness, absorbency, durability, versatility, and sustainability. Cellulosic fibers are key components of fabrics like cotton, linen, and rayon. These fibers are known for their breathability, moisture-wicking properties, and comfort, making them suitable for clothing and bed linen

Cellulose Fiber Market Drivers and Opportunities

Growing Textile Industry to Favor Market

The textile industry has benefitted from globalization with the ability to source raw materials and labor from different parts of the world. This has further led to increased production capacity and cost efficiencies. Advancements in textile manufacturing technologies, such as automation and digital printing, have improved efficiency and product quality. These innovations have also led to the development of smart textiles and functional fabrics. Growing awareness of environmental issues has driven the adoption of sustainable practices in the textile industry. According to a report published by the European Commission in 2021, venture capital investment in advanced technologies has increased in the French textile industry. France is among the top 3 textile manufacturers in the EU, representing ~10% of EU turnover. The growing textile industry across the world is a major driver of global cellulose fiber market share.

Demand for Nonwoven Fabrics – An Opportunity in Cellulose Fiber Market

Cellulose fibers can be used to make nonwoven products such as wet wipes, disposable diapers, and medical dressings. Cellulosic fibers are also the primary raw material in paper production. In the form of filter paper, cellulosic fibers are used in applications like laboratory filtration and industrial filtration processes. In 2021, Production-Linked Incentive scheme was announced by the government of India, worth US$ 1.44 billion for man-made fibers and technical textiles manufacturing over a five-year period. In 2021, Welspun India introduced Wel-Trak 2.0, a patented end-to-end traceability technology to track textile raw materials throughout the supply chain. The demand for nonwoven fabrics is expected to have a positive impact on the cellulose fiber market.

Cellulose Fiber Market Report Segmentation Analysis

Key segments that contributed to the derivation of the cellulose fiber market analysis are fiber type, and application.

  • Based on fiber type, the cellulose fiber market is divided into natural, and regenerated. Natural segment held a larger market share in 2023.
  • By application, the market is segmented into apparel, home textile, industrial, and others. The apparel segment held the largest share of the market in 2023.

Cellulose Fiber Market Share Analysis by Geography

The geographic scope of the cellulose fiber market report is mainly divided into five regions: North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, Middle East & Africa, and South America/South & Central America.

Asia Pacific has dominated the cellulose fiber market. China and India are amongst the major global textile economies. Asia Pacific marks the presence of the largest and most competitive textile industries in the world. This drives the demand for cellulose fibers used in making cotton, jute, linen, and rayon textiles. Asia Pacific is also home to a high number of small and medium-sized fabric manufacturers. According to the Chinese government report, China exported the equivalent of US$ 293.6 billion worth of textiles and apparel in 2023. Thus, the region represents a market of opportunities due to rising demand for textiles and personal care products.
