In 2017, the nonwoven geotextiles market in Europe, Africa, Middle East and Africa was valued at USD 4.12 Billion. This is expected to grow at 6.7% during the forecast period. Product demand will be driven by government policies in emerging countries like India and China for geotextiles' use in infrastructure development of inaccessible hills. Additionally, favorable regulations regarding the use of geotextiles to prevent erosion can help boost the growth. Product demand will be driven by technological advances in Geosynthetic Reinforced walls (GRS).
Nonwoven geotextiles are in high demand due to their many properties, including soil protection, separation, filtration and reinforcement. Due to mechanical stress and wear and tears, soil particles and substances can become mixed up. Nonwoven geotextiles are used to separate these materials. This allows water to pass through while keeping the soil particles. This is used in the construction of roads, pavements and fields. This product will increase safety by extending the life span of roads, dams and embankments. Demand for the product is expected to rise.
Market growth will be boosted by the increase in construction of roads and drainage systems in Asian countries like China, India, Japan, and other developing nations. In the coming years, product demand will increase due to increased awareness about soil erosion and its effects on the environment like deforestation or the greenhouse effect.
Manufacturers will face significant challenges due to volatility in crude oil prices. The key raw materials such as polypropylene and polyester are crude oil derivatives. The development of sustainable and eco-friendly geotextiles will increase demand for jute, coir and other raw materials.
Polyester's strength makes it a good choice for geotextile landscaping. Geotextiles are widely used outdoors and have excellent ultraviolet radiation resistance.
Due to its excellent properties, including UV and thermal resistance, polyethylene (PE), is expected to grow. Because of their different properties and compositions, geotextiles made from PE are suitable for a variety of applications. The forecast period will see a rise in demand due to lower prices than its counterparts.
Polyethylene fibers are highly resistant to heat and will be used in high-heat applications in the construction industry. Polymer is less effective than polypropylene in terms of penetration due to its low tensile and recyclability.
Nonwoven geotextiles made from polypropylene are used extensively in construction, including roofing, tile underlayment and pipelines wrapping. It is also used in landscaping and agriculture as root bags, capillary mats, turf protection fabrics, crop and other types cover. The segment is expected to grow at 6.9% during the forecast period.
Geotextiles are net-like structures that prevent soil erosion. This increases germination and allows vegetation to grow. A strong root system and stable top layer will result. Other attributes like high soil retention, ease of installation, cost-effectiveness, and affordability are expected to drive demand for the product in many applications, including construction of roads, railway cuts, fills, and irrigation canals. Market growth can be attributed largely to the growing need to protect riverbeds and prevent erosion from shorelines. This product can prevent soil erosion from wind and water.
The majority of geotextiles can be used to reduce erosion as they strengthen soil and encourage vegetation. They can also be used for maintenance purposes, which will drive demand in the forecast period. The product can also be used to control erosion in streams and lakes, which will increase the demand. Nonwovens are used in maintenance and repair of roads, waterways and landfills. They reduce clogging by seperating soil and sediment from water. This will drive demand in the civil engineering sector, particularly the drainage industry.
In infrastructure development, drainage plays an important role. Geotextiles have been used more frequently in drainage systems in China due to the country's infrastructural development. Due to their many advantages, geotextiles have become an integral part modern infrastructural developments. This will in turn be expected to positively impact product demand over the forecast period.
The application of trench drains and perforated pipe wrapping in Italy is expected to drive a 6.5% CAGR over the forecast period. The product can also be used to protect soil erosion by separating the sub-base and base courses of roads during road construction and then combining them with 3D structures to create prefabricated drains.
Due to their availability and low costs, the Middle East and Africa will see significant growth in the coming years. This product is used to build roads. It provides a tensile strength for the earth mass and aids in water permeability.
The Asia Pacific region has seen a decrease in inflation, which has led to a decline in commodity prices and a rise in local currencies. The positive effect of increased foreign investment in emerging economies such as China or India on regional economic growth is expected to be significant. In the near future, product demand will be driven by the rapid development of infrastructure in the region and rising megacities within China and India.
While the market is fragmented at the global level, it is well-consolidated at the local level. A large number of players of similar size dominate local markets, creating an oligopolistic market with consistent pricing strategies.
Expect low entry barriers to increase competition and create attractive opportunities for new entrants. Royal TenCate, GSE Holdings, Inc., NAUE Group, and Officine Maccaferri S.p.A. are the major players in this industry. To gain a substantial market share, they focus on technological innovation.
