iAbrasive: Global Demand for Nonwovens to Rise 5.4% Annually to 9.1 Million Metric Tons in 2017
Zhengzhou,China (PRWEB) February 23, 2014 -- iAbrasive, a leading trade platform for abrasives and abrasive products, recently indicates in a survey that the worldwide demand for nonwovens is forecast to increase 5.4 percent yearly to 9.1 million metric tons in 2017, driven by the production of non-disposable goods.
As it shows in the survey, Nonwovens demand in the developed areas of the world, such as the US, Japan, and Western Europe, is projected to grow at a rate of 2.4 percent per year, an improvement from the declines of the 2007-2012 period but still well below the global average. These countries have well developed manufacturing sectors, populations with high personal incomes, and well established, mature nonwovens markets. Nonwovens demand in developing areas of the world is expected to increase 7.2 percent per year through 2017. The manufacturing sectors of developing economies tend to grow rapidly, benefiting nonwovens used in the production of non-disposable goods such as mattresses, motor vehicles, and geo-textiles. Additionally, advances will benefit from growth in middle class cohorts who are better able to afford nonwoven consumer goods, such as wipes and personal hygiene products.(According to data on http://www.freedoniagroup.com/industry-study/3077/world-nonwovens.htm)
