Global Geotextiles Market Highlights over 2022 – 2030
The global geotextiles market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of ~11% over the forecast period, i.e., 2022 – 2030. The growth of the market can be attributed to the various advantages of geotextiles, such as, erosion resistance, higher strength and durability, and overlay stress absorption. Moreover, use of geotextiles protects the road or pavement from degradation by soil, while also safeguarding the biodiversity of the soil. Moreover, geotextiles also provide greater stability to roads, and other infrastructures. Growing construction activities across the world is estimated to boost the market growth. Furthermore, natural geotextiles are being extensively used to curb deforestation by reducing soil erosion and degradation of vegetation. Additionally, geotextiles are used to regenerate forest areas. The growing government concerns to reduce deforestation and loss of vegetation is estimated to boost the market growth. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the U.N., since 1990, over 420 million hectares of forest have been converted into industrial land. Between 2015 to 2020, the annual rate of deforestation reached 10 million hectares per year.

The market is divided by fabric type into natural, and artificial, out of which, the natural segment is anticipated to hold the notable share in the global geotextiles market over the forecast period on account of growing adoption of natural products in construction industry, and increasing awareness amongst people regarding environment conservation. Based on application, the market is segmented into heavy construction, building and pavement construction, hydrogeology, environmental engineering, and others, out of which, the building and pavement construction segment is estimated to garner significant share over the forecast period, on the back of various advantages of geosynthetics, such as, resistance to UV degradation.
Major Macro-Economic Indicators Impacting the Market Growth
The chemical industry is a major component of the economy. According to the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis, in 2020, for the U.S., the value added by chemical products as a percentage of GDP was around 1.9%. Additionally, according to the World Bank, Chemical industry in the U.S. accounted for 16.43% to manufacturing value-added in 2018. With the growing demand from end-users, the market for chemical products is expected to grow in future. According to UNEP (United Nations Environment Programme), the sales of chemicals are projected to almost double from 2017 to 2030. In the current scenario, Asia Pacific is the largest chemical producing and consuming region. China has the world’s largest chemical industry, that accounted for annual sales of approximately more than USD 1.5 trillion, or about more than one-third of global sales, in recent years. Additionally, a vast consumer base and favourable government policies have boosted investment in China’s chemical industry. Easy availability of low-cost raw material & labour as well as government subsidies and relaxed environmental norms have served as a production base for key vendors globally. On the other hand, according to the FICCI (Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce & Industry), the chemical industry in India was valued at 163 billion in 2019 and it contributed 3.4% to the global chemical industry. It ranks 6th in global chemical production. This statistic shows the lucrative opportunity for the investment in businesses in Asia Pacific countries in the upcoming years.
