The Expanding Demand From Numerous End-use Industries for Fire-resistant Materials
The rising demand for fire-resistant materials from a variety of end-use industries, together with an increase in the number of fire and safety laws, have both contributed to the growth of the market in this area. The primary factor anticipated to propel the expansion of the market is an increase in demand for flame retardants from a variety of end-use sectors, including construction, textiles, electrical and electronics and transportation.
The Rising Demand From Armed Forces
Armed soldiers reporting for duty may be exposed to a variety of dangers, such as flash fires and unexpected explosive devices. Armed forces including the military, navy and air forces want self-extinguishing materials to combat these dangers because they are made to withstand heat, fire and other similar climatic factors without melting or dripping. For instance, Burlington Industries LLC stated in June 2019 that it would provide wool-blend textiles for the jacket, tie and bottoms of the New Army Green Service Uniform of the U.S.
The global fire resistant fabric market is segmented based on product, end-user, application and region.
The Rising Investments in Transportation Sector
In 2022, the global market share of fire-resistant fabric in the transportation sector was over 30%. In the transportation sector, fire-resistant materials are utilized in the manufacturing of railroads, automobiles, aircraft and ships.
Furthermore, the growing development of more advanced trains, metro systems and rail networks due to foreign investments is anticipated to stimulate healthy growth in the global transportation sector, creating growth prospects for fire-resistant materials during the forecast period.
The Organisation Internationale des Constructeurs d'Automobiles (OICA) reports that following the pandemic in 2021, the worldwide vehicle industry expanded. The automobile sector saw positive growth in production of 10%, from 80.2 million units produced in 2021 to 85.01 million units produced in 2022, after registering continuous growth for ten years. In turn, this sector's demand for fire-resistant materials surged in 2022.
The Rising Industry Standards for Fire Resistant Fabrics in North America
With a revenue share of over 35% in the market for fire-resistant fabrics, the North American region is expected to continue to lead during the forecast period. The demand for fire resistant fabric is increasing quickly in nations like Canada and Mexico as a result of the expansion of industrial standards.
As the demand for NFPA 2112-certified fire-resistant gear for oil and gas personnel in the area increases, so does the demand for fire-resistant fabric. In addition, the United States and Canada have enacted some of the strongest mandated flammability testing regulations for apparel in the whole world. The Hazardous Products Act (HPA) specifies the safety standards for fabrics in Canada concerning flammability.
The major global players include DuPont (Dow Inc.), PBI Performance Products Inc., Koninklijke Ten Cate nv, Glen Raven, Inc., Huntsman International LLC, Newtex Industries Inc., Lenzing AG, Solvay S.A., Milliken & Company and Teijin Aramid.
