Coated Fabrics to 2016 - Industry Market Research, Market Share, Market Size, Sales, Demand Forecast, Market Leaders, Company Profiles, Industry Trends

US coated fabrics demand will rise 3.5 percent annually to 635 million square yards in 2016. Motor vehicles will remain the largest market, with good prospects for airbags. Renewed construction activity will benefit wallcoverings, furniture, and awnings and canopies. Polypropylene and polyethylene coated fabrics will be the fastest growing products.

This study analyzes the 535 million square yard US coated fabric industry. It presents historical demand data for the years 2001, 2006 and 2011, and forecasts for 2016 and 2021 by product (polymer-coated fabrics, rubber-coated fabrics, fabric-backed wallcoverings), substrate (e.g., polyester, nylon, cotton, fiberglass, fabric blends) and market (e.g., motor vehicles, marine, protective clothing, industrial, furniture, books, tents, wallcoverings, awnings).

The study also considers market environment factors, details industry structure, evaluates company market share and profiles 42 industry players, including OMNOVA Solutions, Saint-Gobain, and Takata.
