Report Code : cm1963 | Publish Date : Upcoming | Industry : Chemicals_Materials | Geography : Global


Geotextiles have established to be among the most multipurpose and cost-effective ground modification materials. Their use has extended rapidly into nearly all areas of civil, geotechnical, environmental, coastal, and hydraulic engineering. They form the major component of the field of geosynthetics, the others being geogrids, geomembranes and geocomposites. The ASTM defines geotextiles as penetrable textile materials used in contact with soil, rock, earth or any other geotechnical related material as an integral part of civil engineering project, structure, or system.

Geotextiles are principally used to control corrosion, as they strengthen soil and promote vegetation. They are also used in conservation applications, which is expected to drive the demand over the forecast period. In addition, the product is used for corrosion control in lakes and stream banks, consequently enlarging the demand. The product can improve safety in terms of the lifespan of roads, dams, and embankments, which in turn is also expected to drive the demand.

Nonwoven Geotextiles Market Outlook

Growing demand for nonwoven geotextiles is credited to their characteristics including separation, filtration, reinforcement, drainage, and protection of soil. Substances and various elements present in soil differ in size and may lead to an undesired blend due to the mechanical stress and wear and tear. Nonwoven geotextiles support in separation of these materials, thus permitting passage of water while retaining the soil particles. This process is utilized during the construction of roads, pavements, and fields. The product can improve safety in terms of the lifespan of roads, dams, and embankments, which in turn is also expected to drive the demand.


Nonwoven Geotextiles Market-Segmental Overview

The global Nonwoven Geotextiles market is segmented based on material type, application and region.

Nonwoven Geotextiles Market by Material Type

By material type, the market is categorised into Polypropylene, Polyester, Polyethylene and others. Polyethylene (PE) is projected to observe development owing to beneficial properties of PE including thermal and UV resistance. Furthermore, PE geotextiles are accessible in different grades, such as HDPE and LDPE, making them appropriate for various applications due to different compositions and properties. Lower prices compared to its counterparts is probable to have a positive impact on demand over the forecast period. The high heat resistance of polyethylene fibers is expected to accelerate their demand in high heat applications for construction industry. The diffusion of polymer, on the other hand, is low owing to its low tensile strength and recyclability as compared to polypropylene.

Nonwoven Geotextiles Market by Application

Based on application, the Nonwoven Geotextiles market has been sectioned into Road Construction, Erosion Prevention, Drainage and others. Drainages play a vital role in infrastructure development. Infrastructural growth in China has directed to improved use of geotextile in drainage systems. Geotextiles are flattering an essential part of modern infrastructural growth owing to some advantages, which in turn is expected to impact the product demand positively over the forecast period.

In Italy, drainage application segment is likely to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to application in trench drains as pricked pipes wrapping. Moreover, the product is used for protection from soil erosion, separating the base course and sub-base of the roads all through road construction, and combining it with 3D structures for creating prefabricated drains.

Nonwoven Geotextiles Market by Geography

Geographically, this market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and Rest of the World. Middle East and Africa is projected to showcase substantial growth over the forecast period due to plentiful availability at low cost. The product is utilized in road construction to provide tensile strength in the earth mass, which benefits in increased water permeability of constructed roads.

Reduced rate of inflation in Asia Pacific has given rise to in the declination of commodity prices and the growth of local currencies. Enlarged foreign investments in developing economies, such as China and India are anticipated to have a positive impact on regional economic growth. Besides, rising megacities in China and India coupled with rapid infrastructure development in the region is expected to propel product demand in near future.
