Construction fabric market valuation set to total US$ 18.0 billion by 2034 amid rising demand for sustainable building materials, analyses Future Market Insights

The global construction fabric market is estimated to be valued at US$ 12.0 billion in 2024. Global sales of construction fabrics are projected to grow at a steady CAGR of 4.1% during the forecast period, totaling US$ 18.0 billion by 2034.

Demand is predicted to remain high for needle-punched nonwovens during the forecast period, rising at a CAGR of 3.9%. This can be attributed to the rising adoption of needle punched nonwoven fabrics in applications like tensile structures and canopies due to their high strength, durability, and low cost.

Multiple factors are anticipated to boost growth of the construction fabric market during the assessment period. These include:

+ Expanding building and construction activities

+ Growing demand for sustainable and green building materials

+ Increasing need for lightweight and portable structures

+ Rising focus on enhancing building aesthetics and design

+ Rapid urbanization, coupled with booming residential sector


Construction fabrics are becoming quite popular in the building and construction sector. This is due to their lightweight, low-cost, and eco-friendly features. They are increasingly used in a wide range of applications, including tensile structures and canopies, thereby fueling their demand.

Rapid population growth and urbanization are attracting investments in residential and commercial sectors. This, in turn, is expected to create a conducive environment for the expansion of the global construction fabric industry during the forecast period.

Construction fabrics are widely used to create different structures, such as convention centers, stadiums, and airports. Similarly, they find applications in infrastructure projects like tunnels and bridges, fueling their sales globally.

Rising demand for sustainable building materials is emerging as a key market shaping trend. Construction fabrics are often seen as a more sustainable option than traditional building materials like steel and concrete, as they can be made from recycled materials or natural fibers.

VAUDE eliminates PFAS from all products

PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are now detectable worldwide – in drinking water, soil and the human body. These so-called “forever chemicals” are considered hazardous to health and potentially carcinogenic, as they do not break down and remain in the environment permanently. Despite these risks, PFAS are still used in a wide range of products. More than 15 years ago, VAUDE made a strategic decision to gradually eliminate PFAS from all product categories.
