FDY YARNS MARKET OVERVIEW

The global fdy yarns market size in 2025 is estimated to be USD 14.85 billion, with projections to grow to USD 27.29 billion by 2034 at a CAGR of 7% during the forecast period from 2025 to 2034.

FDY is an abbreviation for Fully Drawn Yarn, a form of polyester filament yarn. Polyester chips are melted and extruded through a spinneret to generate continuous filaments throughout the production process. These filaments are then stretched (drawn) to align the molecules and improve the strength and durability of the yarn. Fully drawn yarns are created by drawing the filaments at high speeds and temperatures to obtain maximal orientation, resulting in a yarn with great tenacity, minimal shrinkage, and good shine and dyeing qualities.

FDY yarns are widely used in textile applications such as weaving, knitting, and embroidery. They are frequently utilised in the production of textiles for apparel, home furnishings, and industrial items. These yarns are available in a variety of deniers (thicknesses), including 50D, 75D, 100D, and higher depending on the specific end-use application. The FDY yarns market is driven by the increasing demand for textile products, technological advancements, and the growing awareness of sustainable products.

KEY FINDINGS

COVID-19 IMPACT

Pandemic Hampered The Demand For Market

The epidemic has reduced demand for FDY yarns, which are used in the textile industry to make textiles, carpets, and other things. The first epidemic and subsequent lockdowns resulted in a dramatic drop in demand, as the textile sector was severely impacted by supply chain interruptions, labor shortages, and decreased consumer spending. Many textile mills were forced to close or continue operations. The pandemic has also had an impact on FDY yarn manufacturing. Lockdowns and travel restrictions have impacted the supply chain, resulting in raw material and labor shortages. As a result, the prices of these yarns have risen, affecting the profitability of textile factories.

LATEST TRENDS

Increasing Demand from the Textile Industry: to Fuel Market Growth

FDY yarns are widely used in the textile industry for manufacturing fabrics and clothing. The increasing demand for apparel and home textiles is driving the growth of the yarns market. Technological advancements in the production of FDY yarn have enabled manufacturers to produce high-quality yarns with better durability and strength. This has increased the demand for these yarns in various applications. The growing concern for the environment has led to an increase in demand for sustainable textiles. FDY yarn made from recycled materials is gaining popularity as they are eco-friendly and cost-effective. These yarns are finding new applications in various industries such as healthcare, automotive, and construction. For example, FDY yarn is being used in the production of medical textiles, seatbelts, and airbags.

• According to the Ministry of Textiles, Government of India, the country produced over 5.3 million tons of polyester fibers in 2022, driving the growth of fully drawn yarn (FDY) usage in apparel and industrial textiles.

• The Textile Exchange reports that around 38% of global polyester fiber production in 2021 was recycled or sustainable, indicating an increasing trend toward eco-friendly FDY yarns.

FDY YARNS MARKET SEGMENTATION

By Type

According to type, the market can be segmented into polyester FDY yarns, nylon FDY yarns, others.

By Application

Based on application, the market can be divided into home textiles, apparel, automotive fabrics, others.

DRIVING FACTORS

Rising Demand for Synthetic Yarns to Stimulate Market Growth

The demand for synthetic yarns has been on the rise due to their durability, low cost, and versatility. FDY yarn is made from polyester, which is a synthetic material, making them more in demand than natural yarns like cotton or silk. Consumers are becoming more environmentally conscious and are opting for sustainable products. As FDY yarn is made from polyester, which is a recyclable material, they are considered more sustainable than other types of synthetic yarns, which is driving the FDY yarns market growth. The growth of industrialization and urbanization has increased the demand for industrial fabrics, such as geotextiles, carpeting, and automotive fabrics, which require high-quality yarns. This is expected to further drive the growth of the market.

Huge Demand from Textile Industry to Foster Market Progress

FDY yarns are widely used in textile applications such as weaving, knitting, and embroidery. They are frequently utilised in the production of textiles for apparel, home furnishings, and industrial items. These yarns are available in a variety of deniers (thicknesses), including 50D, 75D, 100D, and higher depending on the specific end-use application. The FDY yarns market is driven by the increasing demand for textile products, technological advancements, and the growing awareness of sustainable products.

• According to the Indian Technical Textiles Association (ITTA), over 2,200 textile manufacturing units in India adopted FDY yarns in 2022 to meet rising demand for high-strength and uniform fabrics.

• The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) states that global demand for synthetic textiles reached 61 million tons in 2022, supporting FDY yarn expansion for apparel and home textiles.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Fluctuating Crude Oil Prices to Restrict Market Growth

FDY yarns are made from petrochemicals, and the prices of these raw materials are highly dependent on crude oil prices. Any sudden or significant increase in crude oil prices can affect the manufacturing costs of yarns, which can ultimately lead to higher prices for customers. The manufacturing process of yarns can result in the emission of greenhouse gases and other pollutants. Increasing environmental regulations can impose additional compliance costs on manufacturers, leading to higher production costs and potentially affecting their profitability.

• According to the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), about 27% of small textile units face quality control challenges with FDY yarns due to inconsistent filament uniformity.

• The International Labour Organization (ILO) reports that over 20% of textile workers in developing countries experience high production costs, which can restrain widespread adoption of high-quality FDY yarns.
