North America Geotextiles Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Material (Natural, Synthetic) By Product (Non-woven, Woven), By Application (Separation & Stabilization), By Country, And Segment Forecasts, 2025 - 2030

North America Geotextiles Market Growth & Trends

The North America geotextiles market size is expected to reach USD 1.77 billion in 2030 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.4% from 2025 to 2030. This growth can be attributed to rising civil engineering, agricultural, and transportation activities in North America. In addition, geotextiles are used for preventing in-situ soil from being washed away into the drainage systems present in embankment dams, roads & highways, and reservoirs. The growing civil engineering industry in the region is expected to further fuel the regional demand.

Geotextiles also hold down the soil and promote vegetation growth. The product also plays a significant role in mitigating soil erosion. Ongoing research related to the use of geotextiles for soil erosion prevention in unpredictable climatic conditions is expected to aid their demand. Thus, the growing agricultural industry is one of the major growth drivers for the North America geotextile industry.

Many major market players are engaged in undertaking strategic initiatives such as mergers & acquisitions, new product development, and capacity expansion to sustain their position in the market. For instance, Fibertex Nonwovens invested more than USD 42.78 million in the capacity expansion of its plants in the U.S. in March 2021.

Non-woven geotextiles dominated the geotextile industry contributing to a major share of total market volume in 2022, owing to their unique properties such as absorbency, liquid repellency, and mechanical strength. In addition, the nonwoven geotextiles are manufactured without the conversion of fabric into yarn, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost and encouraging the entry of new industry players.

There is high competitive rivalry in the industry owing to the presence of a large number of geotextile manufacturers in North America. The regional market is dominated by a large number of players of similar size resulting in less differentiated prices. However, high demand for the product in end-use applications, coupled with the growth of end-use industries, is likely to help small and medium-scale manufacturers to survive in the highly competitive market.

Geotextiles play a major role in various applications across agro-industries such as horticulture, farming, husbandry, and aquaculture in the form of protection, storage, and growth stimulation. Geotextiles help in the protection from sun, wind, and snow, while some control the infestation of insects, birds, and weeds. The aforementioned factors are also expected to fuel the growth of the geotextile market in North America.
