A
new research report by Transparency Market Research offers a
comprehensive evaluation of the global Fire
Resistant Fabric
Market. The
study, titled “Fire
Resistant Fabric Market - Global Industry Analysis, Market Size,
Share, Trends, Growth and Forecast 2016 - 2023”,
is available for sale on the firm’s website.
Materials
that are lighter, stronger, safer, and faster are currently gaining
demand in the market. Fibers that are resistant to high temperature
and high performance are used on a large scale as they meet the
challenges that include chemical resistance, high temperature
resistance, etc. Fire resistant fabrics are those textiles that
resist high temperature and fire. These fabrics are known to be
naturally resistant in comparison to other chemical treatments or
fireproof fibers that are manufactured artificially. Fire resistant
fabrics are organic or carbon-containing materials that reduce a fire
hazard. These fabrics do not glow or burn on removal of the ignition
source; however, certain changes are observed in their physical and
chemical characteristics.

Fibers
can be segmented into four categories: (i) natural fibers, which
include flax, cotton, and silk; (ii) inorganic fibers, which include
glass and asbestos; (iii) synthetic fibers, which include polyester,
nylon, and vinyls; and (iv) regenerated fibers, which include rayon.
There are three types of fire resistant fibers: non-durable,
semi-durable, and durable fire resistants. Non-durable fire resistant
fabrics contain water-soluble inorganic salts. These water-soluble
inorganic salts are easily removed on exposure to water or by
washing. Semi-durable salts can be removed by repeated washing in the
laundry. Durable fire resistant fabrics need to be laundry washed
more than 10 times to remove salts. The fire resistance of a fiber is
affected by the fabric’s weight, ease of combustion, chemical
nature, and washing conditions.
Fire
resistant fabrics are used in many applications including
firefighting uniforms, work wear, transport, law enforcement
services, and residential and commercial furnishings. Improvement in
technologies and stringent regulations imposed by the government has
led to increased use of fire resistant fabrics in various end-user
industries such as chemicals, electrical, and oil and gas, which are
at a greater risk of fire accidents.
Rising
demand from the chemical industry is the major factor driving the
global fire resistant fabric market. Increasing demand from the oil
and gas sector is also expected to fuel the fire resistant fabrics
market. Increased awareness about fire safety procedures in
residential and commercial areas is also anticipated to boost the
global fire resistant fabrics market in the near future.
North
America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Rest of the World are major
players in the global fire resistant fabrics market. Developing
economies such as Asia Pacific, especially China and India, are major
markets for fire resistant fabrics due to increasing demand in the
chemical industry. North America and Europe are also expected to be
the major consumers of fire resistant fabrics due to rising demand in
the oil and gas industry and stringent regulations set by the
governments in the region. Rest of the World, which includes Africa,
Australia, and the Middle East, is also likely to boost the demand
for fire resistant fabrics in the next few years.
