Polymer Coated Fabrics Global Market Report 2023: Increasing Focus on Protective Clothing Due to Stringent Government Norms Bolsters Growth

DUBLIN, Feb. 15, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Polymer Coated Fabrics Market- Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2018-2028 Segmented By Product (Vinyl, Polyurethane, Polyethylene, Others), By Application (Transportation, Protective Clothing, Furniture & Seating, Others), By Region and Competition" report has been added to  ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Global Polymer Coated Fabrics is expected to grow impressively due to increasing demand from the transportation & protective clothing industry during the forecast period. It is projected that the revenue of fabric coating in the USA will amount to approximately USD 2,400 million by 2022.

Moreover, the growing application of polymer-coated fabrics in the production of canopies & roofing, coupled with their widespread use across various end-use industries due to their properties like antibacterial and anti-fungal nature, enhanced elasticity, high visibility, weldability, UV radiation, chemical, oil, water, stain, scratch, and abrasion is expected to drive the market in the upcoming years.

In July 2022, an ultrason E polyethersulfone (PESU) polymer from BASF was used to coated fabrics that serve as a particle and bacterial filters for face masks in collaboration with the Vadodara-based Permionics membranes manufacturer.

Increasing Focus on Protective Clothing Due to Stringent Government Norms

Protection against chemicals, heat, biological contaminants, or other environmental risks is necessary for regular work life and is achieved by selecting proper protective clothing. Agriculture, food processing, law enforcement, chemical processing, medical, and defence are major sectors using protective clothing. Along with this rapid industrialization with high investment in the manufacturing industry, together with stringent government norms by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) & National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) regarding the use of protective clothing shall drive the polymer coated fabric market in the forecast period.

Moreover, government executions like Model Work Health and Safety Act in Australia and European Union's Directive 89/686/EEC influence industries toward adopting industrial protective clothing. Additionally, implementing standardized safety protective measures using protective clothing for rescue and swimming purposes is expected to grow the polymer-coated fabric market.

High Demand from Automotive Industry

With growing automotive production globally, the demand for polymer-coated fabric increases. The coated fabric used in vehicles improves the interior's appearance and texture. The materials used to coat or process the fabric include resins, PVC, rubber, lacquer, plastics, and oil or varnish finishes. Due to the anti-corrosive, water-resistant, UV-resistant, rot-proof, and oil-repellent properties, the demand for coated fabric increases in this sector.

High-performance coated fabric is provided by OMNOVA to vehicle OEMs globally. Because of their striking design, eco-friendly attributes, low emissions, appealing look, long-lasting performance, and superb touch, OMNAVA coated fabric upholsteries are used by most car manufacturers. Furthermore, with the automotive industry increasing demand for recyclable coated fabric, Toyobo developed recyclable coated fabric for airbags; these factors positively impact the growth of the polymer-coated fabrics market in the upcoming years.

Polyethylene Will Continue to Be a Key Product

Polyethylene-coated fabric is gaining momentum in response to the rising demand for polymer-coated fabrics due to various mechanical and physical advantages. Polyethylene-coated textiles have multiple benefits over other materials. The low permeability tendency to result in moisture barrier characteristics increase its demand. The material is a high-strength woven cloth with an impermeable covering on both sides. Additionally, provide the highest UV protection, rot and mildew resistance, and vertical resistance to all chemical, increasing the use of polyethylene-coated fabric. Therefore, the polymer-coated fabrics market will grow globally during the forecast period.
