World Markets For Textile Chemicals North America, Western Europe, And Japan (1999-2009) (Technical Insights)

Frost & Sullivan, July 2001

Humanity has been endowed with the means to exploit
nature’s resources for its basic needs, namely, food, shelter, and clothing. For centuries, the clothing needs of the global population have been met by natural fibers, with the world enjoying the coolness of cotton, the warmth of wool, and the richness of silk. The growth of population, the vagaries of weather, and the resulting shortfalls in clothing needs led to the
dawn of the era of manmade fibers. The twentieth century has witnessed the evolution of a variety of fibers: cellulosic acetate and rayon, synthetic nylon, acrylic, polyester, olefin, elastomeric spandex fiber, and a variety of other smaller volume synthetic fibers. Textile fiber is the basic input for the textile
industry, which has undergone radical transformations; from the nature and composition of the fibers in the textiles, to processing technologies, machinery for their manufacture, varieties of end products, and areas of applications.

Specialty chemicals have emerged with the growth of modern technology as the vital ingredients of several industrial sectors, creating their own niche markets, and the textile industry is no exception to this phenomenon. Textile chemicals, or textile auxiliaries, as they are termed, are a group of specialty and
some commodity chemicals. They are essential in wet
processing of textile fibers, imparting the fibers with strength, feel, and acceptability by the user. The processing of textile fibers consists of preparatory steps, dyeing and printing steps, and textile finishing steps, as the fibers are progressively converted into knit, woven, and nonwoven fabrics for apparel, home furnishings, carpets and rugs, industrial, and other uses. These steps provide the users with the comfort, ease of care, and aesthetics they desire. Textile chemicals are classified as

- Yarn lubricants

- Warp sizes

- Desizing agents

- Bleaching agents and bleaching assistants
- Surfactants (assistants in bleaching formulations, scouring agents, dye-bath additives, softeners, anti-static agents and pigment printing assists)
- Printing auxiliaries (pigment binders and dye thickeners)

- Fluorescent whitening agents
- Finishing agents (anticrease agents, water/oil/soil repellents, flame retardants, biocides, and others, such as silicone defoamers and softeners, polyethylene wax emulsions, and enzymes for stonewashing)
- Coatings (nonwoven binders, carpet back-coatings and
fabric coatings, flocking adhesives).

Textile fiber consumption has been growing globally at a healthy pace, registering an average 4.75% growth rate per annum during the 1990s. Cotton and polyester shared 72% of the global textile fiber output of around 50 million metric tons per annum in 1998. Textile chemical markets have been growing in tune with the growth of the fibers, particularly in regions other than the Industrial Triad of the United States, Western Europe, and Japan. The increasing size of Asian fiber/textile/garment manufacturers is giving them the tactical advantage of downstream integration, which is not the case in the Industrial Triad. The competition from the Asian countries has affected almost the whole spectrum of textile chemical markets in the Industrial Triad, in spite of major chemical producers controlling
the production and supply of the basic chemical inputs for textile chemicals.

Textile chemical markets have been growing in line with the pace of textile fiber growth, the backbone of the textile industry. Textile compositions, fashions, and end uses have all been changing continuously with growing demands, customer preferences, and technological advancements. Textile chemicals, although constituting a tiny fraction of global chemical consumption or textile business volume, have a profound influence on the textile industry.

The constantly changing global situation in the textile field has resulted in the emergence of trading blocks like NAFTA, the European Union, ASEAN, and G-7. Globalization and liberalization in the context of textiles have opened tremendous opportunities worldwide with textile goods movements redefined by GATT. Attempts are being made to include China in the WTO (World Trade Organization). Regions like Mexico, Turkey, South Africa, and Poland are showing signs of rapid growth in textiles and are attracting the attention of many
chemical producers oriented to the textile industry.

Formulation is the key for success in the area of textile chemicals and there are a number of participants, big, medium, and small, in this market. The picture is changing constantly, with new technologies, new products, and concerns of biodegradability, environmental pollution, and human as well as aquatic toxicity. In the context of the above global scenario of textiles and textile chemicals, the current report by Hewin International portrays both the textile fiber industry and the textile chemicals that are
used in fiber processing.

Hewin International’s estimates show that the global textile chemicals market is around $7.5 billion in 1998-1999, the Industrial Triad having a share of 60% of this market. Surfactants constitute around 25% of the textile chemicals, the usage depending on the proportion of natural and manmade fibers in the mill consumption, the major textile processing steps being carried out, and the prevailing level of technology in various regions. The consumption of textile chemicals also varies on these counts from region to region in the range of $100-400 per metric ton of fiber processed. Global imbalances should fade out, creating favorable markets for the growth of textiles and textile chemicals. In spite of a setback in 1999 due to the spillover of the Asian economic crisis, Hewin estimates that the global
textile markets will grow at an average annual growth rate of 3.2% during the entire period 1999-2009, with average growth rates of 2.4% per annum during 1999-2004 and 3.6% per annum during 2004-2009. In individual regions, the average annual growth rates in the corresponding periods are estimated to be 2.54% and 3.36% in the United States, 1.79% and 2.77% in Western Europe, 1.0% and 3.33% in Japan , and 3.06% and 4.15% in the rest of the Asia-Pacific region.

The methodology used by Hewin International in organizing this report is the same used for its earlier reports. With its global contacts, Hewin International has established a competent team of experts who contribute to its publications by their intimate
knowledge of their respective fields. Additional input has been provided from the organization’s own database, which is periodically upgraded.

In the past, the sources of information, to a significant extent, used to be from technical and other literature provided by companies, supplemented by information based on direct contact with major companies. With the onset of information technology, this input has gradually switched over towards the
larger use of the Internet and scanning a large number of web sites, in addition to the information gathered by personal contacts. Hewin International has organized this report to provide its readers all the state-of-the-art information pertaining to textile chemicals and their global markets as of now and in the next decade. With globalization, companies are jockeying themselves for vantage positions in the global markets, and this

report gives selected company profiles to illustrate how
companies, big, medium, and small, are involved in the fragile textile chemicals market world-over.
