The textile chemicals market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $32.43 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to several factors such as the emphasis on sustainable textile production, increased utilization of technical textiles across various applications, the rise in disposable income, globalization impacting textile supply chains, and the enforcement of stringent quality standards.
The textile chemicals market anticipates a surge in demand due to the escalating need in the textile industry. These chemicals play a pivotal role in enhancing various stages of textile production, from fibers to finished products. They optimize processes, reduce time, and enhance quality. For instance, India's textile and apparel exports saw a 41% increase to US$ 44.4 billion in FY22, indicating a growing need for textile chemicals to ensure superior product manufacturing.
The textile chemicals market foresees a boost from increasing disposable income levels. Disposable income, the amount available for spending or saving post-tax deductions, stimulates textile demand. This trend propels innovation in the textile chemicals sector, aligning with evolving consumer preferences. For instance, Japan saw a rise in disposable income from 412.82 JPY thousand ($3,014.64) in March 2022 to 463.91 JPY thousand ($3,387.76) in February 2023, reflecting the role of rising disposable income in driving the textile chemicals market.
Technological advancements constitute a prevalent trend shaping the textile chemicals market. Companies are dedicating efforts to integrating cutting-edge technologies, such as non-fluorinated durable water repellence and eco-friendly digital printing, into textile development. An example includes Cosmo Speciality Chemicals' launch of Superwash POL in September 2021. This dye transfer inhibitor boasts amphiphilic properties that prevent bleeding and staining on textiles, utilizing polar and hydrophilic agents to avert dye redeposition on various colored fabrics and white surfaces.
Leading entities within the textile chemicals market are forming strategic alliances to offer dependable services to their clientele. These partnerships drive innovation, broaden market reach, optimize supply chains, ensure compliance with regulations, provide customer-centric solutions, and elevate brand stature.
