Report Description
The global lyocell fiber market was valued at USD 1.41 billion in 2022 and is expected to surpass USD 2.87 billion by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 8.2% during the forecast period, 2023–2031. Lyocell fiber is made from bleached wood, which results in the reduction of plastic based products.
Lyocell fabric is used in wide range of industries including fashion, medical, textile, and paper & pulp. Lyocell fiber is a substitute for cotton and silk materials that are used to make sport wear, shirts, denim and trousers. It has high absorbency, which makes it an ideal material for medical dressings.
Additionally, it can be easily dyed and used in combination with other synthetic material and natural fibers, which increases the demand for lyocell fabric in the textile industry. Increasing demand for the production of cellulose-based products in the wake of reducing petroleum based products is expected to fuel the market.
Lyocell Fiber Market Dynamics
-
Rising demand for casual t-shirts, denim jackets, and dress shirts made from lyocell fiber and increasing per capita income are fuelling the market.
-
Lyocell fibers are comfort, have high water retention ability, and superior fabric quality, which in turn, is expected to fuel its demand in the upcoming year. High demand for e-commerce platforms in the apparel sector is driving the market.
-
Rising trend of highly fashionable clothing is projected to drive the market in the coming years.
-
Lyocell fibers are more expensive than other fabric materials such as synthetic fibers. This impedes the market
-
Lyocell Fibers has relatively low surface energy, which makes it very difficult for dyeing, and makes it costly, which in turn drives the market.
-
Rising disposable income and increasing focus of grooming are propelling the demand for health and hygiene products including tissues, baby diapers, and face mask, thus creating opportunities in the market.
-
Increase in the pollution in oceans due to the presence of microplastics which is produced from machine-washed synthetic textiles provides opportunities for the development of eco-friendly fibers worldwide, thus creating opportunities in the lyocell fibers market.
Impact of Covid-19
Covid-19 has hampered the lyocell fabric market negatively. The pandemic has resulted in reduced the demand for lyocell fiber due to the imposition of lockdown and stoppage in the production for the fiber. Conversely, after the lockdown, the production and sale of apparels, footwear, and other products that require lyocell fibers is expected to surge, thus fueling the market.

Lyocell Fiber Market Segment Insights:
Based on product type, the market is segmented into staple fiber and cross-linked fiber. The staple fiber segment holds a key share of the market. These fibers find several applications in casual wear, denim jackets, and towels, as they can easily separate into fibrils. The cross-linked fiber segment is projected to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period. These fibers are not easily biodegradable, owning their low fibrillation properties, which are used in many filter applications, as they provide a silkier texture than the staple fiber. Major applications of cross-linked fibers are in woven fabrics and jersey fabrics.
In terms of applications, the lyocell fiber market is classified as apparels, home textile, surgical products, baby diapers, automotive filters, and others. The apparels segment dominated the market and this trend is projected to continue during the forecast period, due to their high use in growing economies using online retail channels. This segment holds more than 20% share of the market. Lyocell fiber is used in several medical accessories such as bandages, wound contact layer, absorbent pad, and wipes in operation theatres.
Based on regions, the global lyocell fiber market is divided into Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. Asia Pacific held a dominant share of the market. The market in the region is estimated to grow due to rising demand from the textile industry and improving standard of living. Manufacturing companies in the US have designed new strategies to compete in the industry. Mexico has a significant textile industry. Several apparel brands have expanded their business in Mexico, thus boosting production and sale of lyocell fiber.
