Eco Fiber Industry Overview
The global eco fiber market size was estimated at USD 43.07 billion in 2022 and is expected to register a growth of 7.6% in the forecast period.
The market is anticipated to be driven by the rising popularity of organic cotton. Manufacturers are increasingly opting for organic cotton since its production does not pollute surface water, soil or air. Furthermore, rising concern regarding the harmful environmental impacts of synthetic fibers has been a major factor contributing to the increased demand for organic eco fiber since the past few years.

Eco fibers are also rapidly gaining popularity in designer garments and apparel. Continuous advancements in terms of the development of eco fiber textiles offering antimicrobial, hypoallergenic, insulating, UV resistant, highly breathable and absorbent characteristics, are expected to promote their importance in the clothing market.
Rising awareness for ethically produced fabrics has led to a revolution in sustainable clothing in recent years. It not only provides an additional realm of economic profit but also ensures a new market for additional job opportunities as well as a reduction in the usage of virgin resources and raw materials. These trends are further anticipated to contribute significantly to promoting the organic fibers industry in the projected period.
The demand for eco fibers in the U.S. is expected to grow at a significant rate in the forecast period. The U.S. textile industry is one of the largest after China, India, and Germany. The textile companies in the country are focused on restructuring their businesses, developing effective work processes, and investing in niche products and markets, which, in turn, has proven to be conducive to the growth of eco fiber industry.
Raw materials used in the manufacturing of natural and regenerated fibers are widely available across the globe. The raw materials are sourced from different farmers and cooperatives involved in the harvesting of plant fibers and animal farming practices. The major brands involved in the procurement of eco fibers and organic cotton are committed to procuring raw materials from the suppliers on contract basis.
Various technologies and processes are practiced for the manufacturing of eco fibers. Green dyes, which are extracted from plants, arthropods and marine invertebrates, such as sea urchins and starfish; algae, bacteria and fungi, are used in the production of eco fibers. Eco fiber production follows a series of processes including cold pad batch preparation and dyeing; continuous processing of knits; preparation of woven; combined scour and bleach for knit and yarn; foam dyeing, finishing & coating; and pad and drying.
