Polypropylene Fibers Market Analysis

The growing demand for polypropylene fiber in the construction industry has aided the polypropylene fiber market growth. Concrete is a widely used construction material due to its utilization for sustainable buildings. Polypropylene is often added to the cement matrix to improve the resistance of concrete. Fiber reinforced concrete is much more durable due to an enhanced tensile strength and less likely to crack when compared to plain concrete. The construction industry across the globe is growing rapidly. Further, European countries are creating and strengthening their infrastructure by enacting reforms and legislation, thus driving the real estate and infrastructure industries. According to the European Construction Industry Federation, the volume of permits for new buildings (excluding civil engineering) in Germany was US$ 130 billion in 2021, 8% more than in 2020. In North America, the construction industry is one of the important contributors to the region's economy. As per Associated General Contractors of America (AGC), the US construction industry constructs structures worth US$ 1.8 trillion each year. The rise in construction activities due to the increasing population and rapidly growing commercial sector across the region are driving the construction sector in North America. Such initiatives generate demand for construction services, equipment, and materials. The governments and regulatory authorities in the Asia Pacific are focusing on infrastructure investment. In India, growing industrialization, increasing population, growing middle-class income, and increasing infrastructure development is responsible for the growth in construction activities. According to the National Investment Promotion & Facilitation Agency (India), the Indian construction industry is projected to reach US$ 1.4 trillion by 2025. Moreover, the Government of India initiatives such as Housing for All, Smart Cities Mission, and Swachh Bharat Abhiyan is projected to boost the demand for building materials in India. Thus, the growing construction activities especially in developing economies create an enormous demand for polypropylene fiber. Further, polypropylene fiber is an essential fiber in nonwoven processing and dominates in many nonwoven markets.

Polypropylene Fibers Market Overview

Polypropylene fiber is a kind of linear polymer synthetic fiber obtained from propylene polymerization. It has few advantages such as light weight, high strength, high toughness, and corrosion resistance. The polypropylene fiber is widely used in the chemical industry, energy, clothing, environmental protection, and construction. Polypropylene fiber is a set of synthetic fiber consisting of certain features which make them highly preferable to construction materials, especially when concrete is required. Polypropylene fibers are usually made up of either continuous or discontinuous fiber arranged on a plastic matrix and used as a reinforcement material.
