Agro Textile Market

Market Insights

Technical textiles are reported to be the fastest-growing sector of the textile industrial sector and account for almost 19% (10 million metric tonnes) of the total world fiber consumption for all textile uses. Agrotextile materials are mostly produced by synthetics in various decompositions and utilized in the form of either woven or nonwoven. The practice of textiles is also now being expanded to safeguard agro-products like plants, vegetables, and fruits from weather, weeds, birds, etc.

Currently, shade net dominates overall demand and offers strong growth potential in the upcoming years. Agrotextiles are used for a variety of useful products such as shade nets, mulch mats, ground covers, crop covers, insect nets, pond liners, and others (such as root ball nets, harvesting nets, turf protection nets, fruit covers, pallet nets, vermi beds, and fishing nets) that are used in various agricultural, animal husbandry, horticulture, and floral applications. Growing demand for agro-textiles from various sectors is predicted to remain a main aspect of the global agro-textile market in the future.

The global agro-textile market is segmented by geography into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East and Africa. Asia Pacific was identified as the largest market for agricultural textiles in 2016. The agro-textile market in the Asia-Pacific zone is predicted to register the highest rate of growth during the projected period. This progress is majorly attributed to growing demand from growing economies like China, Japan, and India.

Purpose of the Report

The purpose of this strategic research study titled “Agro Textile Market: Growth, Future Prospects, and Competitive Analysis, 2017–2025” is to offer industry investors, company executives, and industry participants in-depth insights to enable them to make informed strategic decisions related to the opportunities in the global agro textile market.

Target Audience

• Industry Investors
• Procurement Managers from End User Companies
• Agro-Textile Manufacturers
• Distributors

On the basis of its product type, the agro-textile market is categorized into the following segments:

• SHADE NET
• MULCH MAT
• GROUND COVER
• CROP COVER
• INSECT NET
• POND LINERS
• Other types of nets include root ball nets, harvesting nets, turf protection nets, fruit covers, pallet nets, vermi beds, and fishing nets.

Global agro-textile market revenue is expected to grow at a significant rate of 5.5% over the forecast period of 2017–2025. In 2016, shade nets accounted for more than 18% of the pie in terms of volume as well as revenue. Shade nets are typically made of 100% polyethylene thread that has been UV-treated. Shade nets are available in different shade percentages, or “shade factors,” i.e., 15%, 35%, 40%, 50%, 75%, and 90%. These percentage% values signify the amount of light intensity that will be restricted by the shade net. It provides a partially controlled atmosphere and the environment by reducing light intensity and effective heat during the daytime for crops grown under it.

Rising demand for organic food products, as well as increased use of shade nets in a variety of agricultural applications, will be the primary drivers of shade net demand in the coming years. Shade nets are the fastest-growing product type segment for the agro textile market, and they are expected to grow at the highest CAGR by revenue from 2017 to 2025, owing to the increasing export of flowers from European and Asian countries.

On the basis of its application, the agro-textile market is categorized into the following segments:

• Crop Production
• Animal Husbandry
• Floriculture and horticulture
• Others (agro-engineering-related applications, etc.)

Global agro-textile market revenue is expected to grow at a significant rate of 5.5% over the forecast period of 2017–2025. In 2016, animal husbandry accounted for more than 50% of the market pie in terms of volume as well as revenue. Animal husbandry dominates the overall demand and offers strong growth potential in the upcoming years. Agrotextiles are most extensively used in animal husbandry applications owing to the wide use of fishing nets across the world, most prominently in the Asia-Pacific region. Increasing demand for agro textiles, especially in the Asia Pacific, due to rapid population growth and the developing food and beverage industries in emerging economies such as India and China, is anticipated to fuel demand for the global agro textile market over the forecast period of 2017–2025. Horticulture & Floriculture is the fastest-growing application segment for the agro-textile market, and it is expected to grow at the highest CAGR by revenue from 2017 to 2025, owing to the increasing export of flowers from European and Asian countries.

In 2016, Asia Pacific was the biggest manufacturing region of agricultural textiles and also the largest consumer of agricultural textiles, contributing over 55% to the total global demand for agricultural textiles in 2016. The agro-textile market in North America is projected to record a sluggish growth rate during the forecast period of 2017 to 2025. The agro-textile market of Europe is also anticipated to experience a slow growth rate. The agro-textile market in the Asia-Pacific zone is predicted to register the highest rate of growth during the projected period. The reason for this is increased demand from end-use applications, as well as various schemes implemented by developing economies such as China and India to promote the use of agricultural textiles.
