세계의 폴리에스테르 섬유 시장 예측(-2032년) : 제품 유형, 등급, 형태, 원료, 용도, 최종사용자, 지역별 분석

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Polyester Fiber Market is accounted for $124.11 billion in 2025 and is expected to reach $244.95 billion by 2032 growing at a CAGR of 10.2% during the forecast period. Polyester fiber is a synthetic fiber made from petroleum-based polymers, primarily polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Known for its strength, durability, and resistance to shrinking, stretching, and wrinkles, it is widely used in textiles, home furnishings, and industrial applications. Polyester fibers are lightweight, quick-drying, and easily blendable with natural fibers, making them popular in apparel manufacturing. Their affordability and versatility contribute to their widespread global demand across multiple sectors.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Growth in E-commerce fashion retail

Online shopping platforms provide consumers with easy access to a wide range of polyester-based apparel. The increasing penetration of smartphones and internet connectivity further fuels online purchases. Polyester fibers are preferred in fast fashion due to their affordability, durability, and ease of maintenance. Brands are focusing on sustainable polyester options to meet evolving consumer preferences. As a result, digital retail continues to grow, polyester fiber consumption is expected to increase steadily.

Restraint:

Growing preference for natural and eco-friendly fibers

The rising awareness of environmental sustainability is pushing consumers towards natural and eco-friendly fibers. Materials like organic cotton, hemp, and bamboo are gaining traction due to their biodegradability and lower carbon footprint. Polyester fibers, being synthetic, face scrutiny over their environmental impact, especially regarding micro-plastic pollution. Fashion brands are increasingly adopting sustainable alternatives to align with consumer demand. Regulatory policies promoting green textiles further limit polyester fiber adoption.

Opportunity:

Rising urbanization and disposable income

Increasing urbanization is boosting demand for polyester fiber-based textiles. As more people migrate to cities, their need for affordable, stylish, and low-maintenance apparel grows. Rising disposable income enables consumers to spend more on fashion and home textiles made from polyester. The versatility of polyester fiber makes it a preferred choice for modern urban lifestyles. Emerging economies, especially in Asia, are witnessing a surge in polyester consumption due to expanding middle-class populations. This trend presents a lucrative growth for polyester fiber manufacturers to capture growing markets.

Threat:

Environmental concerns over plastic pollution

Microplastics shed from polyester textiles pose risks to marine life and ecosystems. Governments and organizations are implementing stricter regulations to curb plastic waste from textile industries. Consumers are becoming more conscious of the environmental impact of synthetic fibers. The push for sustainable alternatives is reducing demand for conventional polyester fibers. Without significant advancements in biodegradable polyester, environmental concerns can pose a serious challenge to market growth.

Covid-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted polyester fiber supply chains and manufacturing operations. Lockdowns and travel restrictions led to reduced production and global trade challenges. However, post-pandemic recovery has fuelled renewed demand, especially in fashion and home furnishing sectors. The surge in casual and athleisure wear, driven by remote work trends, has benefited polyester fiber markets. Textile companies are focusing on digital transformation and supply chain resilience to mitigate future disruptions.

The polyester staple fiber (PSF) segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The polyester staple fiber (PSF) segment is expected to account for the largest market share during the forecast period, due to its widespread use in textiles and home furnishings. PSF is favored for its affordability, durability, and easy blending with other fibers. The demand for PSF is increasing in non-woven applications such as automotive interiors and filtration media. Recycling initiatives are driving growth in the sustainable PSF market.

The apparel segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

Over the forecast period, the apparel segment is predicted to witness the highest growth rate, due to the rising preference for polyester-based clothing. Polyester is widely used in activewear, casualwear, and fashion apparel due to its moisture resistance and longevity. Technological advancements in polyester fiber manufacturing enhance comfort and sustainability. The growing popularity of athleisure and performance wear is boosting polyester demand in the fashion industry.

Region with largest share:

During the forecast period, the Asia Pacific region is expected to hold the largest market share due to its dominance in textile manufacturing. Countries like China, India, and Bangladesh have well-established polyester fiber production facilities. Increasing urbanization and a growing middle-class population drive polyester fiber consumption. Government initiatives promoting textile exports further strengthen the region's market position.

Region with highest CAGR:

Over the forecast period, the North America region is anticipated to exhibit the highest CAGR, owing to technological advancements in textile manufacturing. The growing demand for sustainable polyester fibers is reshaping the market landscape. Apparel brands in the U.S. and Canada are investing in recycled polyester to meet eco-conscious consumer preferences. Government policies promoting sustainability further accelerate polyester fiber adoption. Innovations in high-performance polyester for sportswear and outdoor gear boost market growth.
