세계의 사이징제 시장 : 시장 규모 분석(용도별, 원재료별, 형태별, 최종 이용 산업별, 기술별, 지역별)과 예측(2025-2035년)

The Global Sizing Agents Market is valued at approximately USD 3.16 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.10% over the forecast period from 2025 to 2035. As the demand for superior surface properties, enhanced fiber adhesion, and improved structural strength across industrial and consumer materials intensifies, sizing agents have emerged as indispensable additives in multiple processing environments. These agents, widely used in textiles, paper manufacturing, packaging, and construction composites, function by modifying the surface characteristics of substrates-imparting hydrophobicity, reducing porosity, or increasing bonding between fiber and matrix. Rising global production of textiles and paper-based packaging, combined with advancements in polymeric chemistry, is enabling manufacturers to fine-tune product properties with precision, thus expanding the application breadth of sizing agents.

Fueled by rapid industrialization and sustainability concerns, manufacturers are transitioning towards bio-based and low-VOC (volatile organic compound) sizing materials to align with stringent environmental standards. The surge in demand for lightweight automotive and construction materials has further intensified the use of advanced sizing technologies such as nano-sizing and microencapsulation, enabling controlled release, increased material efficiency, and minimized waste. Furthermore, the textile sector-driven by fashion, sportswear, and technical fabrics-has become a key catalyst in the evolution of starch-based and polyvinyl alcohol sizing compounds, owing to their washability, recyclability, and functional customization. Technological strides in papermaking processes and wet-end chemistry are also pushing the market toward smart formulation developments that enhance water resistance, printability, and tensile strength.

From a regional standpoint, North America captured a significant share of the market in 2024, benefiting from strong paper and packaging production, a mature textile industry, and substantial R&D investments in sustainable chemical processes. Europe follows closely, driven by strict EU REACH compliance and a rising push for biodegradable materials in packaging and garment production. Meanwhile, the Asia Pacific region is poised to witness the fastest growth through 2035, attributed to the booming manufacturing landscape in India, China, and Southeast Asian countries. These nations are not only expanding their textile and apparel export capacity but are also witnessing increasing domestic demand for printed paper, automotive interiors, and coated packaging, thus prompting greater uptake of sizing solutions across industries.
