Coated Fabrics Market Overview
The global coated fabric market size was USD 34.93 billion in 2020 and is projected to reach USD 49.45 billion by 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of 4.9% during the forecast period (2021-2030).
Global coated fabrics market is witnessing a significant growth currently, mainly due to the rapid industrialization across the world. Owing to their enhanced physical and mechanical properties such as tensile strength, elasticity, elongation, and wear resistance, coated fabrics are used in a diverse range of applications, including protective clothing, military tents, other military applications, and so on. Besides, increasing demand for fabrics with fire-protective-coating-layers is escalating the growth of the market to furthered heights.
According to Market Research Future (MRFR), the global coated fabrics market is expected to witness a significant increase by 2023, growing at a phenomenal CAGR during the forecast period (2021-2030). Technological advances that have brought about innovative coating materials, such as plasma coatings, inkjet deposition, and nanomaterial, among others, are acting as major growth drivers for the market. Growth in the global economy is providing ample opportunities for the growth of the market.
Also, growing construction activities across the globe are expected to contribute to market revenues. A spurting growth in the automotive and transportation industry is acting as a key driving force for the market growth. Additionally, factors such as the advancements in coating technology, growth in the paints & coatings sectors, and untapped or disuse markets are generating a huge market demand.
Also, coated fabrics make a great choice for wearable light-emitting devices. The ability to power wearable light-emitting devices without bulky energy generators and storage systems remains a major obstacle in the way of incorporating these wearable devices into everyday life. The chemical stability and safety for skin that metal-coated clothing offers make it an excellent choice for wearable materials.
On the other hand, fluctuating prices and the demand-supply gap of the raw materials required for the production of coated fabrics are impeding the growth of the market. Also, stringent regulations pertaining to the coated fabrics production, alongside the highly capital intensive nature of the market is projected to hamper the market increase, barring the entry for new market participants.

Industry/ Innovation/ Related News:
March 05, 2020 --- Scientists at surface & materials chemistry dept., University of Windsor (Canada), announced the development of light-emitting clothing made with stretchable, gold-coated fabric, which could be used to make the ultimate safety garments. In the magazine, Journal Matter, researchers explain that they decided to use a typical ultrasheer pantyhose as the transparent conductor, which is needed in all light-emitting devices as their proposal involves applying electroless nickel-immersion gold metallization.
The solution-based metal-deposition technique is often used to make printed circuit boards, and it only deposits metal on nylon and spandex fiber surfaces. The gold coated on the fabric acts as an electrode and sends power to a light-emitting material made of zinc sulfide, copper, and silicone, which shines through the semi-transparent, flexible fabric.
