COVID-19 Impact in the Market Growth Restrained by Pandemic due to Lockdown

The COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering; with Industrial Hook & Loop Market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The COVID-19 outbreak had a tremendous effect on the growth of the Industrial Hook & Loop Market because of the imposition of the lockdown and disturbances in the supply chain. Manufacturing activities were in some way reduced or ceased resulting in production and supply chain disruptions. The automotive and aerospace industries who are significant users of hook and loop products received less demand as well as suffered from operation issues. Also, this limited exportation and importation and transportation of goods hence slowing down the growth of the market. However, the healthcare industry demanded more of hook and loop fasteners in medical uses, such as PPE and device, which contributed to a slight declining percentage. The constraint of movement and operations of several industries has slowly eased and the market has started to show a steady trend.

INDUSTRIAL HOOK & LOOP MARKET SEGMENTATION

By Type

Based on type the global market can be categorized Nylon, Polyester, Others.

• Nylon: Yarn and synthetic fiber are mostly used due to the higher strength, durability, and soften feeling on the skin. They are very popular in many industries such as automotive, aerospace and medical to name but a few, where use of fastening that is quick and secure and re-usable is desired. This makes them less susceptible to wearing and thus commonly used in industries that require high amounts of use.

• Polyester: Polyester hook and loop fasteners are particularly appreciated for their good level of moisture, UV and chemical resistance. They are most suitable for the outdoor and marine use where usually the environment is characterized by high exposure to physical elements. They are also used in the apparels, and packaging industries due to their effective performance and reasonable prices.

• Others: The “Other” division encompasses hook and loop fasteners made from the polypropylene materials and acrylic as well as a blend of other fibers. These fasteners are optimized for particular use in certain conditions in which it may be necessary to have some other characteristic, more flexibility, or functional adhesive layer, etc. They are specialized in serving the specific segments and needs, increasing the uses of hook and loop fasteners.

By Application

Based on application the global market can be categorized into Transportation, Industrial Manufacturing, Medical, Other.

• Transportation: Auto related companies in the transportation industry are some of the key industries that have adopted hook and loop fasteners in automotive interiors, seats, aviation.

DRIVING FACTORS

"Rising Demand for Lightweight and Durable Fastening Solutions to Drive Growth in Market"

The rising demand for light weight and non-corrosive fastening systems is driving the Industrial hook and loop market growth. Many applications like automotive, aerospace and medical industries are always in a lookout for material that would provide for low density in addition to high performance and durability. These requirements are met by hook and loop fasteners since they provide lighter weight than the bolts and screws to be used. Also, they do not become less effective each time they are used making them suitable for any application that involves frequent change of settings. This trend is supported by the increased popularity of material science that makes it possible to have even lighter and more durable hook and loop products hence increasing the sectorial applications.

"Growing Adoption in Medical and Healthcare Applications to Propel Market Demand"

Medical and health care facilities are applying hook and loop fasteners more frequently due to the features like simplicity, accomplish ability, and comfortable for patients. They are common in orthoses and orthotics, operative apparels, and wear and also in wound bandage among others. It is especially advantage if they can offer secure but easily adjustable fasteners because quick and easy adjustments are frequently the case in a healthcare environment. Also, healthcare costs and increasing shift towards patients’ needs are the other factors that contribute towards increased demand for quality and efficient fastening solutions. Improvements in the technologies of antimicrobial and hypoallergenic hook and loop fasteners are also driving the upscale of medical uses due to demands for safety and hygienic products.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

"High Production Costs and Price Sensitivity to Hamper the Market Growth"

On the same factor, the High production cost and price sensitivity is another constraining issue in the Industrial Hook & Loop Market. In general, the creation of hook and loop fasteners requires sophisticated technology, the maintenance of high quality and the incorporation of high quality raw materials all of which lead to higher production cost. The above costs can also be a hindrance to small and medium-sized enterprises since they cannot afford to put much capital into the implementation of these fastening solutions. Further, also in sensitivity to the price market, the customer can adapt to cheaper goods and services even if the latter is of lower total performance. Such price sensitivity can slow down the market’s development, primarily in those geographic locations where costs play a more significant role than the opportunities offered by superior fastening technologies.
