Industrial Hemp Market: Growth Drivers

The increasing demand for industrial hemp from the textile industry is one of the prime factors driving the market growth. Industrial hemp fibers are extensively used in the textile industry as a substitute for cotton and synthetic fibers for manufacturing canvas, sailcloth, rope, sacks, clothing, furnishing textiles, specialty textiles, and other products. This is because hemp fibers contain numerous cracks and small holes that provide capillary effect, good moisture absorbing ability, and better breathing performance. Also, they possess various properties such as moisture permeability, good heat radiation, and static and ultraviolet resistance. Many such benefits are increasing the use of industrial hemp in the textile industry, thereby driving the market growth.

“Rise in the legalization of hemp cultivation and rising demand for industrial hemp from China and the US will further boost market growth during the forecast period”, says a senior analyst at Technavio.
