– The Global textile industry is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 4% during the forecast period and reach market value of USD 1,230 billion by 2024. This is anticipated to provide ample opportunities for the fluorotelomers market to grow in the near future.
– Owing to all the above-mentioned factors for fluorotelomers, its market is expected to grow rapidly over the forecast period.
Asia-Pacific Region to Dominate the Market
– Asia-Pacific region is expected to dominate the market for fluorotelomers during the forecast period. Owing to the high demand from various end-user industries such as textiles and food packaging industry in countries like China and India, the demand for fluorotelomers has been increasing in the region.
– The increasing usage of fluorotelomers in textile industry is stimulating the demand of fluorotelomers in the region as textile products like leather jackets, jeans, knit shirts, and carpets are treated with fluorotelomers.
– Additionally, fluorotelomers coatings are applied on food contact paper in packaging applications to prevent paper from absorbing oil from food products. Also, they are used in popcorn bags, pizza box liners, and fast food wrappers. Owing to these factors the demand of fluorotelomers is increasing in the region.
– Apart from food packaging and textiles, fluorotelomers are used in firefighting foams. With the growing number of fire hazards and implementation of strict construction rules and regulations in emerging economies, the demand for fire fighting foams is likely to increase at a brisk pace.
– The Asia-Pacific firefighting foams market is expected to grow at CAGR of 3% during the forecast period and is expected to reach USD 870 million by 2023. This is expected to boost the demand of fluorotelomers and thus, propel its market during the forecast period.
– Some of the major companies operating in Asia-Pacific region are – Clariant and AGC Chemicals.
– The aforementioned factors, coupled with government support, are contributing to the increasing demand for fluorotelomers during the forecast period.
