Non-Woven Abrasives Market Size
The global non-woven abrasives market held a size of USD 2 billion in 2024 and is projected to expand to over 5.6% CAGR from 2025 to 2034.
Non-woven abrasives are materials manufactured from synthetic fibers and abrasive particles that have a wide range of applications in surface operations like surface cleaning, polishing, and finishing. According to the United States Census Bureau, the United States economy as a whole experienced an increase in the value of shipments of the manufacturing of abrasive products such as non-woven abrasives, between the years of 2021 and 2022, with the increase being 7.2%. The United States Bureau of Labor and statistics noted a 3.5% increase in the employment rate in that sector in comparison to the rate a couple of years later, in 2023.
Between the years 2021 to 2022, the value of performance of the production of abrasives in the EU soared by 5.8%. These indicate a growing demand for non-woven abrasive tools that are widely used in automated manufacturing processes, metal fabrication, and precision manufacturing/chip industries due to their growing application requirements. The growing emphasis on environment-friendly abrasive grains and mesh types as well as the requirements of these grain types in underdeveloped nations have been the key drivers for the increase in the overall market’s income and have led to the impact of key factors for their growth, sustainable development trends.
Non-Woven Abrasives Market Trends
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the non-woven abrasives industry was fetched as strong as 7.2% during the past years.
US Bureau of Labor Statistics indicates that the jobs in the abrasive product manufacturing industry in aggregate grew in 2022 by 2.5%, which actually signifies room to expanding operations and increasing production capacity. According to Eurostat of European Commission, EU abrasives were estimated to have increased their production value by 5.8 % in 2022 compared to 2021.
Non-Woven Abrasives Market Analysis
According to EPA, US Environmental Protection Agency, US recycler’s reported an upward growth of 3.1% of industrial materials. There are other dimensions of technology which can improve the performance products. Greater involvement in the core businesses is also fostering the development of markets. The World Trade Organization reports that in 2022 a positive growth of 6.5 % of abrasives regional imports was recorded in the developing countries, which means great future turnover.
The Asia Pacific region is also vigorously competing with the traditional growth areas of North America and Europe. Nestled the periphery of this magnetism, the global distribution of non woven abrasives is also benefiting from the global shift towards automated and eco friendly manufacturing systems.
The disc non-woven abrasives market segment was worth USD 919.5 million in 2024. There is an untapped void left in the discs subsector of the non-woven abrasives industry, and it has applications in surface preparation and finishing for automobiles, aerospace and metal components fabrication. If there are many tools for chamfering, buffing and cleaning, discs still rank as the best contender because they are more flexible and easier to operate. In conjunction with the chase for automation of the manufacturing operations, there will be a great need for high performance abrasive discs. What is even more valuable is their ability to operate on intricate shapes and give certain finishing touches. And when developing regions like the Asia Pacific region becomes more industrialized, so more opportunities become available for this segment.
Construction sector accounted a share of 31.4% in the year 2024. Since this industry requires surface preparation, finishing and polishing work, there is ample scope for growth of non-woven abrasives market. For these types of fabrication or refurbishment work, non-woven fabrics become essential tools as they are widely utilized in the cleaning of metal, smoothing of concrete, wood finishing and other abrasive works. Such abrasives can be anticipated to increase with the construction industry in developing economies. We see an increased level of attention on the quality of the end construction and also the materials environmentally friendly. Same, the innovations of the products that increase durability and effectiveness help to ensure the integration of these elements in construction works.
The value of China non-woven abrasives market was at USD 362.6 million and it is projected to grow at a rate of 5.8% between 2025 to 2034. The national market of nonwoven abrasives in China will be explosive due to continuous development in the construction and manufacturing industries. Based on the rising industrialization, infrastructure development, the surge in demand for surface finishing products specially in automotive, electronics and metal fabrication industries are favoring different segments. The demand for non-woven abrasives is further supported by the development of new technologies and automation of production processes in China. Furthermore, this excellent condition in the production and manufacturing industry in China creates an opportunity for exports, which also strengthens the internal market.
