The Global Market for Cellulose Fibers and Cellulose Nanofibers 2023-2033: Asia leads the way in growing sector

The "The Global Market for Cellulose Fibers and Cellulose Nanofibers 2023-2033" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Cellulose is the main component of plant cell walls and a natural polymer. It is bio-based, renewable, biodegradable, recyclable, carbon binding and safe for people and the environment and is an important product for the replacement of fossil-based materials. The market for bio-based and biodegradable cellulose fibers has experienced strong growth in the last decade and this trend is expected to continue with the growth in the circular bio-based economy.

The market for cellulose nanofibers (CNF) has also experienced significant recent growth, especially in Asia. Cellulose nanofibers are sustainable materials with high mechanical strength and stiffness (stronger than steel), high aspect ratios, high transparency, high chemical resistance and impressive rheological, optical and film-forming properties.

They are also lightweight and have made a recent impact in industrial applications in biopolymers, bio-composites and hygiene and sanitary products.
