The Market Reports

Synopsis

The global market for Meltblown PP Nonwoven Fabric was estimated to be worth US$ 1026 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 1263 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 2.9% during the forecast period 2025-2031.

Meltblown polypropylene (PP) nonwoven fabric is a high-performance material made from polypropylene, with fiber diameters ranging from 1 to 5 microns. This ultra-fine fiber structure creates numerous voids, giving the fabric a fluffy texture and excellent flexibility. The unique capillary effect of the microfibers enhances its filtration, shielding, thermal insulation, and oil absorption properties. Due to these characteristics, meltblown PP nonwoven fabric is widely used in air and liquid filtration, isolation materials, absorbent products, face masks, thermal insulation materials, oil-absorbing products, and cleaning wipes. Its ability to efficiently capture particles and droplets makes it a critical component in personal protective equipment (PPE) and industrial filtration applications.

The global market for meltblown PP nonwoven fabric is driven by increasing demand across multiple industries, particularly in healthcare, hygiene, and environmental protection. The COVID-19 pandemic significantly boosted demand for meltblown fabric due to its essential role in face masks and medical protective gear. Although demand has stabilized post-pandemic, long-term growth remains strong, fueled by advancements in filtration technology and the expansion of industrial and environmental applications. Additionally, governments worldwide are implementing stricter regulations on air and water filtration, further supporting market expansion. However, raw material price fluctuations, environmental concerns regarding synthetic fibers, and supply chain disruptions pose challenges to market growth.

In terms of market distribution, Asia-Pacific dominates the global meltblown PP nonwoven fabric market, accounting for approximately 60% of total sales. This is largely attributed to the presence of major manufacturers, low production costs, and high demand from industries such as healthcare, automotive, and filtration.

North America and Europe follow with market shares of about 20% and 16%, respectively, driven by advanced healthcare systems and stringent environmental regulations. Key players in the industry include Magnera, Mogul, Kimberly-Clark, Monadnock Non-Woven, Ahlstrom-Munksjö. The top three companies collectively hold around 12% of the market, indicating a highly fragmented industry with numerous regional and specialized producers. Moving forward, innovations in biodegradable and sustainable nonwoven fabrics are expected to shape the next phase of market evolution.
