Spandex is a synthetic fiber known for its exceptional elasticity. It is produced from polyurethane and contains between 85-95% polyurethane. Spandex fibers exhibit high moisture absorption as well as excellent elastic recovery, which allows it to be stretched and deformed yet maintain its original shape after stretching. These unique properties make it suitable for a wide range of applications from sportswear, jeans, leggings, shapewear, activewear to swimsuits and bras. Rising demand for athletic and activewear across the globe is driving the growth of the spandex market.
Market Dynamics:
Increasing demand for athletic and activewear is a key driver fueling growth of the global spandex market. Spandex offers properties such as stretch, sweat-wicking, compression, and moisture-wicking which makes it highly suitable for use in these end-use industries. Rising health awareness and increasing participation in sports and fitness activities has been boosting demand for sports apparel, footwear, and other accessories. However, fluctuations in raw material prices poses a challenge for market players. Rising inflation and unstable crude oil prices have been increasing production costs. Opportunities lie in development of bio-based spandex fibers as a sustainable alternative to conventional petroleum-based fibers.
