The India Cellulose Fiber Market Report thoroughly covers the market by fiber type and applications. The India Cellulose Fiber Market Outlook report provides an unbiased and detailed analysis of the ongoing India Cellulose Fiber Market trends, opportunities/high growth areas, and market drivers. This would help the stakeholders devise and align their market strategies according to the current and future market dynamics.
The India Cellulose Fiber Market is expected to grow prominently in the future. This growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for sustainable and eco-friendly materials in various industries such as textile, paper, pharmaceuticals, and food packaging.
According to 6Wresearch, the India Cellulose Fiber Market size is projected to rise at a CAGR of 4.8% during 2025-2031. One of the primary drivers for the growth of the cellulose fiber market in India is the increasing demand for sustainable and eco-friendly materials. With growing environmental concerns and regulations, consumers are increasingly looking for alternatives to synthetic fibers, which has led to a rise in demand for cellulose fibers. The Indian government has also taken initiatives to promote and support the growth of the cellulose fiber market.
However, the Indian cellulose fiber market also faces challenges such as high production costs and limited availability of raw materials. The process of extracting cellulose from plants and trees is labor-intensive and requires significant capital investment, which can hinder the growth of small and medium-sized enterprises in this sector. Furthermore, with increasing demand for cellulose fibers worldwide, there is a risk of overexploitation of natural resources.
Some of the key players in the India Cellulose Fiber Market include Aditya Birla Group, Grasim Industries Limited, Indo Bharat Rayon, and Sateri (formerly Jaya Shree Textiles). These players are continuously investing in research and development to improve the production process and develop innovative products to cater to the growing demand for natural fibers.
The Indian government has also taken initiatives to promote and support the growth of the cellulose fiber market. One such initiative is the National Program on Advanced Cellulosic Fibers (N-PACF), launched in 2017 with a focus on developing sustainable technologies for the production of cellulose fibers. This program aims to increase the production and consumption of cellulose fibers in India, as well as promote research and development in this sector.
The future of the cellulose fiber industry in India is highly positive, with increasing efforts from the government and private sector to promote sustainable and eco-friendly practices. The use of cellulose fiber not only supports the growth of various industries but also contributes to reducing environmental impact and promoting a greener economy.
According to Sachin, Senior Research Analyst, 6Wresearch, in terms of fiber type, the man-made cellulose fibers segment is currently witnessing the highest growth in the India market. These fibers are produced from natural raw materials such as wood pulp or cotton linters and undergo chemical treatments to create different types of cellulose fibers.
The apparel segment dominates the Indian cellulose fiber market, accounting for more than 50% of the total consumption. This can be attributed to the growing demand for eco-friendly and sustainable fabrics in the fashion industry.
