All these sectors have significantly gained in dynamics over the last few years.<\/p>\n<p>Cellulose fibres are a success story within the textiles market with a cumulated annual growth rate (CAGR) between 5 and 10% over the last ten years \u2013 similar growth rates are expected in the next decade. This makes cellulose fibres the fastest growing fibre group in the textile industry and also the largest investment sector in the bio-based economy worldwide. The challenge now is to achieve a balance between the ongoing capacity expansion and the growing demand \u2013 to avoid over capacities, but also to cover the growing demand of the big brands.<\/p>\n<p>The high growth rates are driven by the demand for natural fibres (and bottlenecks in cotton), the microplastic problem and possible bans for plastic fibres. All three drivers will continue to play a significant role in the future development of the sector, as well as alternative cellulose feedstocks from side-streams and recycling.<\/p>\n<p>For the first time, the innovation award \u201cCellulose Fibre Innovation of the Year 2021\u201d will be granted to the innovative cellulose fibre industry for the development of new technologies and applications. All producers and inventors along the entire value chain from feedstock to the final product are invited to join the competition.<\/p>\n<p>Call for abstracts and innovation is open.
