Asia becomes the focus of non-woven building materials market

According to the data of the European Non-woven Materials Association, the growth of the North American non-woven building materials market in 2012 and 2013 was about 5% and 4%, respectively, showing a continuous downward trend, while the non-woven building materials in Asia were nearly two. The annual growth rate is 10%. While manufacturers of non-woven building materials are keen to update roofing and structural materials technology, they have begun to shift their key markets to Asia. It is estimated that the total output of construction non-woven materials exported by Russia to Asia in 2013 reached 1.8 billion square meters, which is equivalent to 360,000 tons, worth about 400 million yuan, an increase of 16% compared with 2012. Analysts predict that Russian investment in the construction market in Asia will maintain an average annual growth rate of 8% and 0%. The relevant person in charge of the marketing department of Freudenberg politex Group, a well-known non-woven material manufacturer based in Italy, said that the European and American markets are already mature and saturated markets. Only Asian countries have a growing trend. Therefore, they decided to invest in construction in Yunnan, China. Plant, strengthen its market position in Asia, especially developing countries, and take the lead in the production of high-strength staple fiber and polyester spunbond non-woven products, mainly used for asphalt roofing reinforcement materials. The British BBA Group has developed a variety of non-woven materials for construction according to the different climatic conditions of Asian countries, such as Attic building shell and Therma insulation and breathable membrane material. Attic building shell can permanently maintain airtight state, but the roof is ventilated and breathable, while blocking moisture and airflow, moisture can be discharged. Therma heat insulation and breathable membrane material has both thermal resistance and good moisture permeability, which can control condensation and prevent mildew, and increase the thermal resistance, reduce heat loss in winter, and reflect heat in summer, making it extremely valuable The structural materials. Horta, the roofing market manager of the BBA Group, pointed out that in addition to the favorable conditions for the rapid economic development in Asia in recent years, Asia is also the continent with the strongest continental climate in the world. Therefore, there is incomparable market demand for building materials with different properties. The building materials market is an important development direction for the company in the next 10 years.
