SIC 2823 - Cellulosic Manmade Fibers
Establishments primarily engaged in manufacturing cellulosic fibers (including cellulose acetate and regenerated cellulose such as rayon by the viscose or cuprammonium process) in the form of monofilament, yarn, staple, or tow suitable for further manufacturing on spindles, looms, knitting machines, or other textile processing equipment.
Industry trends:
The cellulosic manmade fibers industry, categorized under NAICS 2823, is experiencing several qualitative trends that are shaping its current landscape and future trajectory. One of the most significant trends is the growing demand for sustainable and eco-friendly materials. Consumers and companies are increasingly prioritizing environmental responsibility, leading to a rise in the production and use of biodegradable and recyclable cellulosic fibers.
Technological advancements are also playing a crucial role in the industry. Innovations in fiber manufacturing processes are improving efficiency and quality, while reducing environmental impact. For instance, new methods of producing lyocell, a type of cellulosic fiber, are emerging that utilize less water and fewer chemicals.
There is also a notable shift towards customization and high-performance fibers. Manufacturers are focusing on creating specialized fibers that cater to specific applications, such as moisture-wicking textiles for activewear, or high-strength fibers for industrial uses.
In terms of market dynamics, Asia-Pacific remains a dominant player in the production of cellulosic fibers, driven by its vast manufacturing capabilities and growing domestic demand. However, there is an increasing interest from Western markets due to rising consumer awareness about sustainability.
Looking ahead, the future forecast suggests that the cellulosic manmade fibers industry will continue to grow steadily, driven by technological innovations and a stronger emphasis on sustainability. Companies that invest in green technologies and cater to the evolving consumer preferences are likely to gain a competitive edge.
