Market analysis indicates that driven by EU sustainability regulations and global brand commitments, demand for eco-friendly chemical fibers will remain strong in 2024, with recycled PET and Bio-Nylon emerging as the two primary growth engines.
1. Surging Demand for Recycled PET (rPET): The global compound annual growth rate for rPET in textiles is projected to reach 8.5% by 2025. Technological innovation is focused on overcoming challenges in color consistency and strength uniformity. High-quality rPET has become a priority for international buyers.
2. Accelerated Commercialization of Bio-based Nylon: Compared to conventional nylon, bio-based alternatives can reduce the carbon footprint by up to 50%. As feedstock sources expand and production costs decline, its application in premium outdoor apparel and automotive interiors is moving from concept to mainstream.
Industry Impact: This trend demands higher R&D capabilities and robust certification systems from upstream suppliers. Global procurement teams now commonly require international certifications like GRS as a baseline. Suppliers with scalable, high-quality production capacity are poised to capture greater market share.
