It is predicted that the large-scale use of polypropylene products in geotextiles will continue its leading position. Disposable products (medical treatment, filtration, disposable wipes, etc.) and durable materials (geotextiles, wallpapers, home furnishings, etc.) are the main application markets of non-woven materials and products. Asia Pacific region accounts for the main share of the global market. Europe, as the second largest market in 2014, will continue to grow strongly
