Cooling Fabrics Market Outlook and Opportunities in Grooming Regions with Forecast 2032

Pune, India, September 2020, MRFR Press Release/- Market Research Future has published a Half-Cooked Research Report on the Global Cooling Fabrics Market.

Market Synopsis

According to the MRFR analysis, the Global Cooling Fabrics Market size was valued at around USD 2.3 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach around USD 5.1 billion by 2032 at a CAGR of around 9.37%.

Cooling fabrics are functional fabrics with thermoregulating characteristics that maintain body temperature during hot weather and physical activities. The growing demand for sports apparel and protective wearing, rising disposable income, consumer awareness about the benefits of functional fabrics, and an increase in R&D investments propel the growth of the global cooling fabrics market. Moreover, rising demand for cooling fabrics in healthcare and marine applications is likely to bring lucrative growth opportunities for the global market. Furthermore, with the outbreak of COVID-19, various countries have undergone preventive measures, which led to a lockdown of factories and disruptions in trade. Therefore, the demand for global cooling fabrics is expected to decrease during 2020.

Competitive Landscape

Global Cooling Fabrics Market is highly consolidated with the presence of global, regional, and local players. Manufacturers focus on the R&D of new technologies to maintain a high quality of their products and the innovation of new products to maintain a strong position in the market. Producers are increasingly focusing on a strategic alliance with stakeholders to gain maximum market share in the global market. Furthermore, researchers are increasingly focused on developing fabric with automatic cooling or insulating properties as per the conditions. For instance, the University of Maryland researchers have developed such fabric with high-tech thermal properties.

Segmentation

By Type

• This segment is further divided into natural and synthetic.

• The natural segment is projected to be the fastest-growing segment during the assessment period. This is due to rising inclinations towards biodegradable, breathable, and natural fabrics. This includes fabrics that include cotton, silk, etc.

• The synthetic segment holds the largest market share in the global cooling fabrics market. They offer outstanding physical properties such as endurance, high strength, and stretchability. Furthermore, they give a wide scope for innovation.

By Textile Type

• This segment is further divided into woven, non-woven, and knitted.

• The woven segment is projected to witness moderate growth in the coming decade. Woven fabrics are generally used in protective wearing and have high dimensional stability and strength.

• The non-woven segment is projected to witness notable growth during the assessment period. This is attributed to its low cost and demand in lining fabrics.

• The knitted segment holds the major the share of the global market due to the high stretch properties, fitting, and breathability. Furthermore, this is the fastest-growing segment owing to an increase in R&D investments in knitted cooling fabrics.
