Summary

Report Description

Global Fire-Resistant Fabrics market is anticipated to grow significantly through 2028 due to increasing demand from the transport sector. In 2022, Portugal’s air transport industry alone contributes to just under seven percent of the country’s GDP.

Global Fire-Resistant Fabrics market is expected to expand during the projected period due to increasing demand from the transport industry which includes road, air, sea, and rail transport. Fabric that is flame resistant and retardant is used in the production of furniture, clothing, protective gear, and other items for use in a variety of industrial fields, including the chemical, defence, mining, and infrastructure & construction industries. The need for flame-resistant and the retardant fabric has been fueled by strict industrial safety rules that uphold workplace safety and control worker protection standards. The NFPA 2112 standard was created by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and it specifies the minimum standards for the design, development, testing, and certification of the flame-resistant and retardant fabric used by professionals in the industry. In addition, these standard states that the flame-resistant and retardant fabric shall not contribute to the wearer's burn injuries, offer high levels of protection and lessen the severity of burn injuries brought on by brief thermal exposure or unintentional exposure to flash fires. Such factors are supposed to increase market growth during the long-run forecast period.

Moreover, demand from the oil & gas and transportation sectors will likely provide market growth opportunities during the forecast period.

Rising Demand from the Transport Sector

Fire-resistant fabrics are used in vehicles to stop the spread of fire caused by dangerous materials like batteries and flammable chemicals. In addition, the market for fire-resistant fabrics is growing as high-speed, electric vehicles with quick acceleration and regulatory bodies demand higher safety standards in cars. Consumers' desire for technologically advanced cars has changed recently, necessitating inexpensive, low-maintenance vehicles with various interior applications and safety features. As a result, there are now more fabrics used in cars overall.  

For instance, Autoliv uses high strength, heat, and flame-resistant woven fabric in the  manufacturing of high-quality airbag textiles and webbings for the automotive industry

Thus, the growing demand for automobiles brought on by their enhanced features is anticipated to open up a wide range of potential for market growth. Moreover, the global demand for and sale of electric cars propels this expansion.

For instance, in 2022 according to the Organization Internationale des Constructeurs d'Automobiles (OICA), the total number of automobiles including passenger cars and commercial vehicles produced globally is 85016728 units.

Furthermore, for instance, according to the International Energy Agency, 3.29 million EVs were deployed worldwide in 2018, which is expected to rise to 125 million by 2030.

Additionally, the aviation industry is also a popular mode of transportation, which has been growing at a remarkable pace, as it is seen to be the fastest means of commuting for traveling to distant places. During aircraft production, the selection of the correct fabric material is as important as any other component of aircraft, as a significant number of aircraft accident deaths are caused due to fire and smoke inhalation and/or suffocation from toxic gases released during a fire. As increasing in the number of passengers and the replacement of old aircraft rises the demand for new aircraft further increases the use of special types of fabric in their manufacturing which provide protection, resulting in increasing the demand for fire-resistant fabrics.

For instance, according to Boeing Commercial Market Outlook 2020–2039, 43,110 aircraft are expected to be delivered during the same period.

Furthermore, railway and sea modes are considered as economically beneficial modes of transportation. These modes of transportation get preference when large lots of material need to be transported. Thus, during the manufacturing of these transport, the demand for fabric increases which provides safety from fire and chemicals.  

For instance, Trevira CS provides fire protection fabric for international rail traffic as well as for the maritime sector according to stringent fire protection regulations.

Therefore, increasing demand for fire-resistant fabrics from various modes of transportation led to the growth of Global Fire-Resistant Fabrics market in the forecast period.

Stringent Workplace Safety Regulations

Another significant element influencing market growth is the strict workplace safety laws in many countries. Industrial safety gear for places that deal with chemicals, construction, and oil & gas is the principal use for fire-resistant fabrics. Due to the hazardous working conditions, businesses must utilize such materials. Due to these considerations, the demand for textiles that resist fire has greatly increased as emerging countries require safety gear in the industrial sector.

Additionally, the growing demand for liquid and gaseous fuel led to an increase in the production capacity of the oil & gas industry by enhancing the manufacturing process resulting in rising risk and safety concerns for the workers, thus the demand of fire protecting clothes increased which further increase the demand for fire-resistant fabrics which propel the growth of the market in the projected period.

For instance, DuPont produced a Nomex fabric portfolio to meet or exceed global standards for protection and performance for workers in the oil & gas and petrochemical industries.

Emerging Turns Toward Nanotechnology-Based Fabrics

In industrial and technical applications, textured-surfaced fabrics that are flame-resistant are becoming more and more necessary. A team of researchers at the Defense Institute of Advanced Technology (DIAT) produced a nano-engineered polymer-based fabric specifically for the space industry and military personnel. This fabric was created by DIAT and has excellent flame resistance, hypersaline solution resistance, UV resistance, and low-temperature resistance. When subjected to chemical assaults and low and high temperatures, this nano-engineered polymer fabric displays exceptional integrity. This fabric may be utilized successfully in other security services, such as the navy and the air force, in addition to space exploration and military use. Therefore, the worldwide fire-resistant fabrics market is expected to grow throughout the forecast period.

However, limited availability and high cost of raw materials, such as aramid fibers and flame-retardant chemicals, affect the production of fire-resistant fabrics result as well as the manufacturing process for fire-resistant fabrics is complex, involving multiple steps, including weaving, knitting, and coating affects the quality of the final product which is very crucial as they are designed to provide protection in the event of fire accidents. Thus, to maintain the quality of material the use of adequate raw materials and a proper production process increases the cost of production resulting in increasing the cost of fire-resistant fabric which restrain the market growth. Moreover, the use of flame-retardant chemicals in the production of fire-resistant fabrics can have negative environmental effects, such as the release of toxic chemicals into the environment as well as the disposal of fire-resistant fabrics also poses environmental challenges, as they cannot be easily recycled or biodegraded. In addition, the availability of substitute materials, such as ceramics, glass, and metal-based materials, offer superior fire-resistant properties, widely used in high-end applications, such as aerospace and defense, where safety and protection are critical further slowdown the market growth.

Recent Developments

  • In August 2021, As a component of the organization's obligation to create items that satisfy the most eminent defensive guidelines, Carrington Textiles has been conceded RU status for six of its fire-resistant textures in the classification of "fire safe dress for the security of modern staff against brief term warm openings from fire."
  • Teijin Aramid, a leading manufacturer of high-quality aramids and a member of the Teijin Group, is trying to develop superior execution aramid strands from bio-based, sustainable ingredients in November 2020.
  • In April 2020, For the workers in the medical services industry, DuPont launched a program called TyvekTogether in which they provided a new specific Tyvek texture.
  • Lenzing AG increased its geographic reach in January 2019 by opening a Center of Excellence at one of its locations in Indonesia.
