항균 텍스타일 시장 : 기회, 성장 요인, 산업 동향 분석 및 예측(2026-2035년)

The Global Antimicrobial Textile Market was valued at USD 14.1 billion in 2025 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 12% to reach USD 43.6 billion by 2035.

The market growth is fueled by rising awareness of hygiene, infection control, and consumer demand for safe, long-lasting fabrics. Manufacturers are increasingly embedding antimicrobial agents into textiles to enhance durability, prevent microbial growth, and reduce odor. Synthetics dominate the market due to their superior durability, moisture management, and adaptability to advanced antimicrobial coatings. Natural fibers are rapidly gaining traction for their comfort, breathability, and biodegradability, and are expected to capture over 30% of the market by 2035. While many technical textiles utilize synthetic compounds such as Quaternary Ammonium Compounds and Triclosan, demand for bio-based antimicrobial agents is surging with the emphasis on sustainability. Medical and healthcare applications remain the largest segment, followed by apparel, home, commercial, and specialty textiles. North America leads adoption due to advanced healthcare systems, Europe focuses on hygiene and sustainability, while Asia-Pacific grows fastest because of strong textile manufacturing and rising healthcare standards.

The synthetic fibers segment held a 55.3% share in 2025 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 13.2% through 2035. Their performance-enhancing features, including durability, moisture control, and compatibility with advanced antimicrobial coatings, make them ideal for sportswear, hospital textiles, and technical fabrics.

The coatings and finishing methods segment held 57.4% share in 2025 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 11% by 2035. These post-manufacturing treatments distribute antimicrobial agents evenly across fabric surfaces, protecting against bacterial growth and working effectively with natural, synthetic, and blended textiles for applications spanning healthcare, clothing, and home products.

North America Antimicrobial Textile Market generated USD 4.5 billion in 2025. Adoption is driven by advanced healthcare infrastructure, stringent hygiene regulations, and growing consumer awareness about infection prevention. Hospitals, laboratories, and sportswear manufacturers are primary consumers, prompting continued innovation in functional fibers and finishing technologies to sustain market dynamics.

Major players operating in the Global Antimicrobial Textile Market include BASF SE, Clariant AG, DuPont de Nemours Inc., Fuji Chemical Industries, Ltd., Indorama Ventures Public Company Limited, Milliken & Company, Microban International, Polygiene AB, Sanitized AG, and The Dow Chemical Company. To strengthen their presence, companies in the Antimicrobial Textile Market are focusing on strategic R&D investments to develop sustainable, high-performance fibers and coatings, expanding their product portfolios to cover diverse end-use applications, and forging collaborations with textile manufacturers and healthcare institutions. They are also prioritizing geographic expansion into emerging regions, adopting digital marketing and e-commerce channels to reach broader audiences, and implementing advanced manufacturing technologies to enhance production efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
