Filtration continues to be one of the fastest growing markets for the nonwovens industry. Demand for filtration media is driven by the consumer need for clean air and drinking water, increased fuel efficiency in vehicles, increased urbanization of global populations and infrastructure improvements in developing countries, among other factors.
According to market research company Smithers, filtration is the second largest end-use market for durable nonwovens and the third largest market for nonwovens overall. Last year, filtration accounted for 9.9% of all nonwovens sales.
