Nonwoven Filtration Market by Type (Natural, Synthetic), Technology (Airlaid, Meltblow, Needlepunch), End Use Industry - Global Forecast 2024-2030

The Nonwoven Filtration Market size was estimated at USD 8.03 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 8.65 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 8.25% to reach USD 13.99 billion by 2030.

Nonwoven filtration refers to the process where nonwoven fabrics are used to separate particles or contaminants from gasses or liquids. Nonwoven materials are typically made from short fibers bonded together by chemical, mechanical, heat, or solvent treatment as opposed to woven or knitted fabrics. The application of nonwoven filtration spans multiple industries, including automotive, healthcare, HVAC, water filtration, and food and beverages. End-uses involve air and liquid filtration for removing particulates, controlling pollution, ensuring cleanroom standards, and maintaining sterility in products and processes. The nonwoven filtration market is growing due to rising demand for nonwoven filtration in water treatment and HVAC systems, significant adoption of nonwoven filters in the medical and healthcare sector, and increasing focus on indoor air quality and the need for high-efficiency filters. However, the adoption of nonwoven filtration is hindered by volatility in raw material prices, the availability of substitute filters, and environmental concerns associated with nonwoven filters. On the other hand, the emergence of novel and advanced technologies, increasing usage of nanotechnology in the production of nonwoven disposable across end users, development of eco-friendly, biodegradable nonwoven filters, and adoption of smart and connected filtration systems present potential opportunities for the nonwoven filtration market to grow in the coming years.
