'With the increase in the global population and the increasing living standards of the people, the global demand for fiber will continue to increase substantially. The compound annual growth rate is expected to be 2.6% from 2017 to 2025. The growth rate in Asia will be the highest. 3.3%. The growth of the global fiber industry benefits from chemical fiber, with an average annual growth rate of 3.2%.' September 5, at the World Fiber New Materials Conference and the 24th China International Chemical Fiber Conference, Japan Chemical Fiber Industry The executive vice president and chairman of the association, Mr. Ueda, introduced.
From the perspective of the global fiber market in 2017, the use of natural fibers accounts for about 30%, and the use of chemical fibers is about 70%, which is upside down compared to the 1970 fiber market. According to Andre Wissenberg, vice president of Oerlikon Manmade Fibers Introduction, in the next few years, the chemical fiber market will continue to obtain higher-than-average returns from the transfer of cotton to chemical fiber. The growth of polyester is significantly better than that of other fibers. The increase of civil silk (polyester) is about 3.8%. The long-term average size of the long and short silk market is at a level of 2 billion Swiss francs, and will be healthy in Turkey, India, the US and other markets.
'The increase in population and disposable income is seen as an important growth driver for fiber textile consumption, both from clothing home textiles to fiber textile applications for carpets. In addition, population distribution, especially aging, can also affect purchase behavior. And product range. Andreas W. Engelhardt, Head of Product and R&D, Groz-Beckert.
In the field of clothing, from 2013 to 2020, the world apparel market grew at an annual rate of 5.9%, with China's demand increasing the most, followed by the US. Currently, the market size of fiber yarns and polymer nonwovens is 110 million tons, which is equivalent. At a rate of 14.5 kg per person. By 2030, the world population will reach 8.5 billion people, and the market size will reach about 160 million tons. In addition, health awareness and population aging drive the functionality of medical application control or regulation functions. Development of textiles, such as high-activity and high-performance clothing with antibacterial, temperature-regulating, breathable and UV-resistant properties; textiles for integrated electronics for military and workwear. However, due to the high price of functional textiles in high-income countries These are good for the increase in output.
From 2007 to 2017, the number of middle-class families has increased by 70% in 10 years, and the annual disposable income of the middle class is 5,000~35,000 US dollars. It is expected that the demand for high-functional fiber will increase substantially. 'Ueda Uchida analyzes the road. To meet the middle class Demand, carbon fiber-based fiber innovation opens up new markets and will drive future economic growth. The global technology textile market is growing at an annual rate of about 6.4%, and the chemical fibers used in Asian nonwovens and global automotive production continue to grow. Trends. The infrastructure of industrialized countries will be more dependent on the strength of textiles, and the requirements of lightweight composites will drive the development of industrial fibers.
The global fiber industry is growing, and chemical fibers will support the growing demand for fiber. 'As global fiber demand increases, demand for high-functional fibers and high-performance fibers is expected to continue to expand in the future, so standardization becomes more important to Ensuring consumer safety will bring new markets to chemical fibers. At the same time, information technology, Internet of Things, artificial intelligence technology in the chemical fiber and textile industries will promote global fiber demand and supply structure changes. Ying Zhi finally said.
