Spunbond nonwovens are made from plastic films and long fibers, which are adhered together by chemical, mechanical, heat, or solvent treatment. Spunbond nonwoven products are produced by bonding process, web formation, and integrated fiber spinning. They are porous flat sheets and fabric-like materials that are extremely smooth and energy-efficient. These nonwoven fabrics find their application in wall covering, dust covers, dash insulator, sanitary napkins, crop cover, face mask, air filters, carry bags, and posters & banners.
The growth of the global spunbond nonwovens market is driven by increase in demand from the healthcare sector. This is attributed to the benefits offered by spunbond nonwovens such high burst strength and enhanced resistant to heat & chemicals. In addition, upsurge in usage of disposable medical products, such as face masks, gloves, drapes, and patient gowns has boosted the demand for nonwoven fabric. Moreover, owing to increase in population, the usage of sanitary napkins, baby diapers, and several other personal care products has increased, which in turn has fueled the demand for spunbond nonwovens. However, volatile raw material price and high cost of finished products are the factors that negatively impact the growth of the market. On the contrary, increase in investment on R&D activities, development of end-user industries, and rise in demand from geotextiles are expected to offer lucrative opportunities for market expansion.
