As a new generation of environmentally friendly materials, non-woven fabrics are recognized as environmentally friendly products that protect the earth's ecology. Market demand is increasing year by year, and the future market has a strong explosive power. It can be seen that the market prospect of non-woven masterbatch which is dyed and added with non-woven fabric is very promising.
First, the spunbond method will still be the main web forming process
At present, the spunbond process is the main non-woven fabric forming process, accounting for 48.7% of the total consumption in 2015, about 4.4 million tons. Spunbond, also known as spunbond or melt-spun nonwoven, including: spunbond (polypropylene, polyester, polyethylene, nylon, and bicomponent fibers); meltblown (polypropylene); SMS ( Spunbond/meltblown/spunbond, polypropylene); various other materials.
Smithers predicts that global demand will return to the right track in the healthy development of the global economy in 2020. At that time, the total consumption of spunbonded nonwovens should reach 6.2 million tons.
It is worth noting that the non-woven masterbatch for spunbonding and melt-blown has a large difference in the melting index, so care must be taken not to mix.
Second, disposable nonwovens will grow significantly
Between 2010 and 2015, disposable and durable nonwovens were on a par with each other in terms of relative value growth. Disposable nonwovens sales increased from $10 billion to $14.1 billion, with a compound annual growth rate of 7.1%. Durable nonwovens have a compound annual growth rate of 7%, from $16.6 billion in 2010 to $23.3 billion in 2015.
Hygiene products are a large consumer market for disposable nonwovens, mainly including the impact of baby diapers, training pants and feminine hygiene products. These products have some general requirements for nonwovens, mainly for the top layer, the absorbent core layer, and the flow guide layer.
Wipes are another important market for disposable nonwovens, large in scale and growing rapidly.
Due to the high environmental requirements of sanitary materials and medical insurance materials, any toxic and hazardous substances in the products cannot exceed the standard and must meet ROHS and FDA requirements. Ruize non-woven masterbatch has relevant international certification test certificate, and the quality is guaranteed.
It is worthy of recognition that with the rapid development of the nonwovens industry, there is still a large room for growth in non-woven masterbatch, both in terms of functional development and production quality.
