Unmasking the value of cosmetic nonwovens

摘要

Nonwovens are prized for their potential to be used in a wide range of applications, particularly in the beauty and hygiene segments. Their diverse range of properties, such as excellent absorption, comfort and filtration makes them ideal for a wide range of commercial and industrial products. One area that companies across the world are tapping into is the nonwoven cosmetic face masks market. These products, which are categorised by the industry as wipes due to their material composition, are beginning to see demand rise across the world, largely due to their convenience. In fact, the same can be said for many of the nonwoven beauty and hygiene products currently available on the market. According to a report by Smithers Pira, disposable nonwovens are expected to reach US$19.2bn in value by the year 2020, rising from US$14.lbn in 2015 and growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.7%.
