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

US demand for coated fabrics will grow 3.2 percent annually through 2010. Gains will be helped by a recovery in nonresidential wallcoverings, awnings and canopies, and by continued strength in protective clothing and motor vehicle airbags. Nonrubber coated fabrics will stay dominant while fabric-backed wallcoverings will grow the fastest.

This study analyzes the $2.7 billion US coated fabric industry. It presents historical demand data for 1995, 2000 and 2005 and forecasts to 2010 and 2015 by fabric coating (e.g., vinyl, acrylic, polyurethane, pyroxylin, polychloroprene, silicone); fabric substrate (e.g., polyester, nylon, cotton, fiberglass, nonwovens); and market (e.g., motor vehicles, marine, furniture, protective clothing, industrial, wallcoverings).

The study also considers market environment factors, details industry structure, evaluates company market share and profiles 41 major producers including OMNOVA Solutions, Saint-Gobain, Reeves Brothers, Takata, Seaman, SanduskyAthol International, Hallwood, and Haartz.
