New report for the worldwide textile chemicals industry to 2026

The global textile chemicals market is anticipated to register a CAGR of 3.6% over the forecast period. This is a result of the "Textile Chemicals Market 2020-2026" report which has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The major factors driving the growth of the market include the growing demand for apparel and industrial fabrics globally. Apparel is one of the oldest and largest export industries across the globe. It is also one of the fastest-growing global industries as most of the developing countries manufacture for international textile and apparel. Apparel is often the typical starter industry for countries engaged in export-oriented markets, due to its low fixed costs and emphasis on labor-intensive manufacturing. Thus, the rapid growth of the apparel market across the globe and majorly in developing economies is expected to drive the textile chemicals market during the forecast period majorly.

On the flip side, the pollution problems caused by the textile dyeing and finishing industry and the adversarial economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are expected to challenge the growth of the textile chemicals market. According to a study 'Global trade impact of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) epidemic' by a division on International Trade and Commodities, United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), the epidemic has affected global textile and apparel industry worth more than $1.2 billion, which certainly had rigorous impacts on the growth of the global textile chemicals market.

The global textile chemicals market is segmented based on type, application, and raw material. Based on type, the market is segmented on the basis of colorants & auxiliaries, coating & sizing chemicals, surfactants, desizing agents, finishing agents, and others. Based on application, the market is classified into apparel, automotive textile, home furnishing, industrial textile, and others. By application, the apparel segment accounted for the largest share, holding more than half of the total market in terms of revenue, in 2019. On the basis of raw material, the market is fragmented into synthetic, cotton, wool & cashmere, silk, rayon/viscose, other.

Geographically the market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Rest of the World. The Asia-Pacific is the leading market for the textile industry, hence, the demand for textile chemicals in the region will be the highest during the forecast period. The textile industry in the Asia-Pacific is driven by the increasing sales volume of clothing and apparel goods through offline means of sale as well as online portals including Amazon, Alibaba, Flipkart, and more.
