Market Insights
Lyocell fiber is a form of regenerated cellulose fibers obtained by bleaching pulp of wood. U.S. Federal Trade Commission (USFTC) has further defined lyocell as a fiber made up of cellulose by precipitating it from an organic solution which does not lead to the formation of any chemical intermediates. Lyocell fiber clothing remains odor-free even after multiple wearings and are much stronger than cotton. Lyocell being stronger than other rayon fibers has found increased prominence into non-woven products such as surgical products, home textiles and baby diapers, thus increasing the demand for Lyocell in the forecast years. Currently, Lyocell fibers are widely incorporated in casual and corporate apparels due to the fact that lyocell provides same attributes as that of cotton. The enhanced super absorbent, smooth and silky property of these fibers has further increased its demand in hygiene products such as wipes and diapers, thereby escalating the market growth.
The apparel segment application is projected to dominate the market growth. Changing fashion trends has increased the adoption of Lyocell fibers in high quality textile manufacturing. Moreover, superior properties of Lyocell as compared to cotton such as natural breathability, biodegradability and better moisture absorption property has increased its utilization in apparel clothing. Furthermore, Lyocell fibers products are marketed as natural and safe on social media leading to increased adoption among young generation, concerned for wearing “Green”. This has further turned out to be the prime factor driving demand for eco-friendly fibers such as Lyocell fibers.
