Antimicrobial Textile Market: By Agent Treated Textile, By Application, and Geography

Antimicrobial Textile Market Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Global Industry Analysis: By Agent Treated Textile (Synthetic Organic Compound Treated Textiles, Metal & Metallic Salt Treated Textiles and Bio-Based), By Application (Commercial Textiles, Apparel, Medical Textile, Home Textiles and Other Wearables), and Region

Antimicrobial Textile Market size was valued at US$ 10.9 billion in 2023 and is poised to grow at a CAGR of 6.9% from 2024 to 2030. The global market provides a detailed overview and that can be segmented by agent-treated textile and by application. By agent-treated textiles, the Antimicrobial Textile market growth has been segmented into Synthetic Organic Compound Treated Textiles, Metal & Metallic Salt Treated Textiles, and Bio-Based. The Synthetic Organic Compound Treated Textiles segment is likely to be the largest and fastest-growing segment in terms of agent-treated textiles. The rise of this segment is mainly due to their high efficacy on a large number of microbes that can disturb the fabric's  condition.

Agents based on biology have applications in the saleable textile for the stoppage of microbe's growth. They are divided into chitosan and extracts, which are taken out from the marine animal's skeleton, for example, shellfish. They are used as a natural antimicrobial agent and have chief applications in residential areas. Based on Application, the Antimicrobial Textile market is segmented into Bacterial applications, Commercial Textiles, Apparel, Medical textiles, Home Textiles, and Other Wearables. Among these, the Medical Textile segment is expected to have the fastest-growing market during the forecast period 2023-2029. The rising demand in the medical sector is causing an increase in the usage of antimicrobial technologies in the market. Antimicrobial textiles offer benefits, such as defense from microbial action by being in direct contact with individuals and preserving the hygiene of clinics and hospitals. It is accelerating the development of this segment. The medical business is the key industry of antimicrobial medical textiles owing to the usage of antimicrobial fabrics in curtains, gowns, uniforms, masks, gloves, and wipes.

Antimicrobial Textile Market Key Development:

  • In April 2021, Milliken swivels textile manufacturing launched innovative medical PPE using BioSmartTM antimicrobial technology.
  • In March 2021, Milliken & Company acquired Zebra-chem GmbH to include up to 100% recycled substances in the new plastics.
