Spandex Fibers Market: Introduction
- Spandex is a synthetic polymer. It is also called elastane fiber. Chemically, it is made up of a long-chain polyglycol combined with a short di-isocyanate, and contains at least 85% polyurethane.
- It is an elastomer, which means it can be stretched to a certain degree. It recoils when released. These fibers are superior to rubber, as they are stronger, lighter, and more versatile.
- Spandex fibers can be stretched to almost 500% of their length

Key Drivers and Restraints of Spandex Fibers Market
Rise in demand for textiles around the globe is propelling the spandex fibers market. These fibers are widely used in the manufacture of sportswear, garments, and casual wears. Increase in disposable income of consumers is driving the demand for various textiles. Rise in population base is also propelling the demand for textile, thereby augmenting the spandex fibers market. According to the U.S Census Bureau, the global population is expected to reach 8 billion by the end of 2025. However, rise in usage of substitutes of spandex fibers such as Natural Rubber Latex (NRL) and Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) is negatively affecting the spandex fibers market.

COVID-19 Impact on Global Spandex Fibers Market
- On January 30, 2020, the International Health Regulations Emergency Committee of the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak a public health emergency of international concern. Originating in China, the virus has spread to at least 214 countries and territories around the world.
- Several governments and private sector businesses are operating at a limited capacity or have ceased operations completely due to recent events surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic
- The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has led to a disturbance in the supply chain due to the global lockdown in several countries. The spread of coronavirus caused a fall in demand for chemical intermediates due to uncertainty in the global economy and capital markets. Therefore, various major countries observed significant variation in demand for spandex fibers in end-use industries such as apparel and clothing, medical and health care, and home furnishing.
