The market demand for antibacterial non-woven fabrics is increasing, and the development is becoming more and more sunrise

As the most cost-effective and highly flexible non-woven fabric technology, spunbond/spunmelt non-woven fabrics occupy the largest share of the entire market. Although needle punching, spunlace, hot air and other technologies are now popularizing and joining the competition, The output is still far behind the spunbond/spunmelt technology. According to the analysis and forecast issued by the consulting company, it is estimated that the global spunbond/spunmelt non-woven fabric will increase to about 4.8 million tons from 2017 to 2022, which is equivalent to 1.8% of the annual Growth rate (this forecast data does not include unannounced capacity expansion and possible increase in production line investment, so the actual global production capacity may be slightly higher than the current estimate by 2022). The proportion of domestic non-woven fabric production methods accounted for this technology to a large extent, mainly due to the important position of medical and disposable sanitary products in the non-woven fabric market. The largest market for spunbond/spunmelt non-woven fabrics is medical supplies (masks, protective clothing, etc.), disposable hygiene products (baby/adult diapers, feminine care products), accounting for two-thirds of the total non-woven fabrics . In addition, spunbond/spunmelt non-woven fabrics are also used in other important markets, such as automobile anti-collision coating, construction geotextile, wall and other packaging materials, and home decoration. The demand for spunbond/spunmelt non-woven fabrics for medical and disposable hygiene products will drive growth. The main driving factors are consumption driving force, medical protection demand, health demand, birth rate, aging, market penetration rate and so on. With the improvement of consumption level and social development, the application of medical and disposable sanitary non-woven fabrics in packaging materials for antibacterial articles has entered a rapid development and renewal state. Antibacterial medical non-woven fabrics as the final material have successively entered the disinfection supply centers of various hospitals at all levels; disposable antibacterial sanitary non-woven fabrics have also become popular products. The sunrise development of antibacterial non-woven fabrics Some leading non-woven fabric manufacturers at home and abroad have invested in antibacterial non-woven fabric production lines in order to seize opportunities in the medical and disposable sanitary products market and increase sales. The largest non-woven fabric manufacturers in Southeast Asia all adopt spunbond/spunmelt technology and focus on the hygiene market. According to forecasts, by 2020, the spunbond/spunmelt production capacity in Southeast Asia will reach 263,000 tons, of which 114,000 tons or 43% are from Thailand, 97,000 tons or 37% in Malaysia, and 52,000 tons or 20% in Indonesia. By 2022, spunbond/spunmelt technology can often be distributed in various countries. Spunbond/spunmelt non-woven technology is taking a healthy and changing pace. While the production lines continue to meet market demand, each company must also actively respond to market challenges and increasing health needs. Improving the bulk and softness of non-woven fabrics is very important, and antibacterial is also the top priority. These technical requirements fully reflect the vitality of non-woven fabric manufacturing technology.
