Polyester Short Fiber Market Grows with Rising Demand for Affordable and Durable Textiles

The Global Polyester Short Fiber Market Industry is experiencing a significant shift towards sustainable and eco-friendly textiles.
Published 17 June 2025

Polyester Short Fiber Market is a synthetic fiber produced from either virgin polyester or recycled PET (polyethylene terephthalate). It is widely used in applications such as textiles, non-woven fabrics, automotive interiors, home furnishings, filtration, and construction. Its key attributes—low cost, strength, wrinkle resistance, and recyclability—make it an ideal alternative to cotton and other natural fibers.

The market is experiencing steady growth, primarily driven by increasing demand for cost-effective, durable textiles and the growing trend toward sustainability, particularly in recycled polyester short fiber (RPSF). Asia-Pacific dominates global production and consumption, with China and India serving as major hubs due to abundant raw material availability and strong downstream industries.

The Polyester Short Fiber Market CAGR (growth rate) is expected to be around 3.01% during the forecast period (2025 - 2032).
