The status quo of the global polyester staple fiber market
Apr,06 2021
On a global scale, the global polyester staple fiber (PSF) market is growing. It is expected that the compound annual growth rate from 2018 to 2022 is expected to exceed 5%, and it is developing in the direction of greenness.
As consumers’ demand for corporate accountability and environmental management has increased not only in Western countries, but also in other parts of the world, manufacturers are responding.
On the surface, this seems to be bad news for polyester.
After all, manufacturers are moving from non-biodegradable petroleum-based synthetic fibers (such as polyester) to biodegradable renewable fibers made from materials such as polylactic acid and lyocell.
However, this does not mean that there is no polyester. There are ways to use environmentally friendly polyester: for example, polyester can be recycled and it is this factor that has promoted the massive growth of polyester.
This is also an important reason why this growth can be regarded as a fundamental victory for sustainability and a green manufacturing economy.
The recycled polyester staple fiber in question is a synthetic fiber produced by recycling PET/polyester remaining in manufacturing or in the form of recycled post-consumer waste.
There are many polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastics that are wasted in the form of discarded bottles. All used and discarded water, soda and juice bottles are not wasted: they can be turned into a new material, namely recycled polyester staple fiber.
This material has a wide range of applications. It can be made into high-quality non-woven carpets, fillers, can be used in the filtration industry, and can be used to fill pillows, cushions, children's toys and quilts.
Citic Nanyang (Xiamen) Textile Technology Co., Ltd. produces various products, including recycled polyester staple fiber, recycled 100% virgin polyester spun yarn, thread and recycled colored spun yarn.
The booming market of recycled polyester staple fiber in many ways proves the best aspect of the 21st century's efforts to eliminate the most serious hazards of modern industrial civilization. It represents a concerted effort to take a contaminated material and recycle it, thereby reducing the need for further environmental impact.
