Rising Demand for Silicone Heat Resistant Fabrics to Propel the Market Growth of Heat Resistant Fabric

Based on material, the rising demand for silicone heat resistant fabrics are driving the market growth of heat resistant fabrics. Silicone material has the ability to resist temperatures up to 250 ºC owing to its highly stable chemical structure and also exhibits low thermal conductivity, which is leading to the steady utilisation of silicone in the manufacturing of heat resistant fabrics. The exceptional characteristics of silicone-based textiles, such as chemical resistance, abrasion resistance, and non-sticky nature, are resulting in the increasing utilisation of silicone-based heat resistant fabrics in various high-temperature applications. In addition, silicone has low heat release rates and low yields of carbon monoxide release, and so these properties offer different advantages during fire retardant applications, thereby propelling the market expansion of heat resistant fabrics. The development of superior quality silicon-based heat resistant fabrics by key market players is likely to aid the market for heat resistant fabrics over the forecast period.

Rising Fire Accidents and Growing Industries to Drive the Market Growth of Heat Resistant Fabric

The increasing cases of fire accidents and the number of injured firefighters are driving the market growth of heat resistant fabrics. According to the NFPA report highlights, an estimated 64,875 firefighter injuries occurred in the United States of America during 2020. The rising number of industries such as aerospace, robotics, and the growing necessity to protect their workers from extreme heat is leading to the market expansion of heat resistant fabrics. The regulations and performance requirements set by governmental agencies and non-profit organisations in developing heat-resistant fabrics are significantly catalysing the market development. For instance, the National Fire Protection Association offers a standard 2112 on flame-resistant clothing to protect industrial personnel against exposure to fire.

The research activities and the development of advanced heat resistant fabrics are contributing to the market growth of heat resistant fabrics. In 2019, University of Maryland researchers created fabric from specially engineered yarn coated with a conductive metal that can automatically regulate the amount of heat that passes through it. The strand of yarn changes the way the fabric interacts with infrared radiation, which acts to transmit or block heat. The extensive manufacturing base of heat resistant fabrics worldwide is expected to stimulate the market over the forecast period.
