Segments - Trawl Ropes and Nets Market by Type (Large Size, Medium Size, and Other), Application (Marine Aquaculture Industry and Freshwater Aquaculture Industry), Distribution Channel (Online and Offline), and Region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, Middle East and Africa) - Global Industry Analysis, Growth, Share, Size, Trends, and Forecast 2023– 2031
The global trawl ropes and nets market size was USD 341.3 Mn in 2022 and is likely to reach USD 538.7 Mn by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 5.20% during 2023–2031. The market growth is attributed to the increasing volume of commercial fishing activities and investments in emerging economies such as Japan, China, India, and South Korea.
Trawl ropes and nets are cone-shaped fishing nets primarily designed for catching fish in lakes, rivers, and marine regions. Trawls, also known as dragged gear or towed gear, are deployed under deep water and towed behind a boat or vessel to catch a variety of fish, especially for commercial purposes. Fishers mostly deploy the nets for commercial fishing for demersal (bottom of seas or lakes) and pelagic (surface layers of seas/open oceans) fish in marine and freshwater regions. The nets are sometimes used to target specific fish species.
The growing demand for seafood products, especially fish, is a key factor boosting the global trawl ropes and nets market. Increasing preference for seafood and seafood products globally is largely attributed to the growing health-conscious population who are aware of the health benefits of consuming seafood.
Rising demand for aquaculture and increasing volume of commercial fishing worldwide due to the growing demand for fish are driving the global trawl ropes and nets market. Aquaculture is widely considered a sustainable fishing practice that can help in breeding or harvesting various endangered aquatic species of plants and fish.
Harmful raw materials are used to manufacture trawl ropes and nets and governments across the globe are setting up policies and regulations on a local and international level to ensure that fishing activities don't throw the ecosystem off balance by overfishing which results in hampering the market growth.
Technological advancements in fishing equipment and the rapid introduction of high-strength and durable materials for fishing nets and aquaculture cage such as increasing demand for high-density polyethylene (HDPE) cages are creating lucrative opportunities for the market players.
