Para aramid fibers led the global aramid fiber market in 2016, with a revenue over USD 2 billion. The massive demand for protective gears such as helmets, bulletproof vests, and vehicle armor will drive the para aramid fiber market size over the forecast timespan. The most commonly preferred para aramid fibers across the globe include: Twaron, Kevlar, Taparan, X-FIPER, RUSLAN, etc.
Sellbyville, DE -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/12/2019 -- Europe led the global aramid fiber market with a market share over 30% in 2016. However, the region will exhibit comparatively moderate growth rate in the coming years. Asia Pacific aramid fiber market will witness promising growth close to 9% by 2024. Rising automotive industry and infrastructural development will be the key factors boosting the regional growth.
Total automotive sales in Asia Pacific region including: China, India, Japan, Australia, Indonesia, Thailand and Malaysia were over 40 million units in 2016 and shall escalate by 2024. Recent regulations by the Government of Japan for reinforcing the evacuation facilities situated near volcano prone areas, for instance, Ebino Eco Museum Center, will be another factor contributing to the growth of aramid fiber market in the region. Protecting structures from large airborne fragments is an important issue in Japan, one of the world's more active volcanic regions, where aramid fibers play vital role in construction owing to their airborne fragment-resistive nature.
