Increasing demand for protective apparel, including as industrial boots, gowns and jackets, masks, and coveralls, is fuelling market expansion, owing to a growing need for increased worker safety. Breathable coatings and films are useful for creating firefighter dress materials because they allow body sweat to escape quickly and lower the risk of heat stress, which is a leading cause of death in this profession. Furthermore, the market is being supported by the increasing development of medical protective gear with waterproof breathable coatings such as Gore-Tex. In disposable surgical gowns, waterproof breathable films are used to enhance breathability and comfort. Various companies are investing more in the development of new products in order to increase the use of waterproof breathable textiles in general clothes and accessories, protective clothing, and sportswear around the world.
Segmental Overview
Based on the Raw Material, the primary aspects supporting the expansion of the polyurethane category are outstanding waterproofing performance and environmentally favorable qualities. Growing investments in research & development, marketing, and manufacture of polyurethane-based waterproofing breathable textiles are also predicted to contribute to market expansion. Waterproof breathable textile composites manufactured with polyurethane films provide excellent breathability for user comfort and are increasingly being used to make highly cost-effective waterproof breathable textile composites. Additionally, these films improve the product's durability by imparting puncture, abrasion, and chemical resistance to the materials to which they are bonded.
Based on the Fabric, the membrane category is expected to grow at the highest CAGR due to its improved breathability and water-resistant capabilities. Membrane-based fabrics are extremely effective in maintaining the ideal body temperature, providing consumers with improved comfort. Membranes are applied to the bottom of a garment's face fabric, similar to how wallpaper is applied to a wall. Membranes are applied to a textile product to create laminated waterproof breathable fabrics. These are thin polymeric membranes with a strong resistance to water penetration and vapor permeability from perspiration.
Regional Overview
China is the largest economy in Asia-Pacific in terms of GDP. Although the country's growth remains strong, it is slowing as the population ages and the economy shifts from investment to consumption, manufacturing to services, and external to internal demand. Due to rising demand from the footwear and garment industries, China's waterproof breathable textiles market is predicted to rise rapidly. Growing consumer demand for fitness-related sports products as a result of increased health awareness is driving the market in China. As a result, China's sportswear manufacturing operations have increased.
