The Global Synthetic Leather Market is expected to reach USD 66.2 Billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 7.8% during the forecast period 2021 to 2030. It is expected that the rapidly growing demand in the footwear industry will be a major factor in the growth of the market as a whole. The price of natural leather is another reason why people are looking for cheaper alternatives.

 

Market Overview:

Synthetic leather is a material made to look and feel like real leather. Making real leather isn't cheap, and the material itself is made from the skin of animals. Plastics and polymers are the main things used to make synthetic leather. Because of this, they can be made much faster and easier and need much less care than raw leather. In the last few years, there has been a big rise in the amount of synthetic leather sold in the United States. Market demand has grown significantly in the United States in the last few years. It is expected that consumption will go up over the next few years. The demand for synthetic leather upholstery in cars is expected to grow significantly, which will benefit the whole market in the United States. During the forecast period, it is expected that activities meant to improve the supply chain will positively affect the market in the United States. Because it is being used increasingly in industries like cars, clothes, luggage, and home furnishings, there has been a shift in how it is wanted worldwide. Because of the wide availability of raw materials and the low cost of labor and shipping, manufacturers have been looking for new suppliers worldwide, focusing on Asian countries like China and Vietnam. But the recent global spread of the coronavirus has greatly affected the synthetic leather market. Many governments have taken preventative measures to stop the pandemic from spreading. This has led to a drop in the demand for and trade of synthetic leather worldwide, which is likely to hurt the industry's growth in the future. It is expected that developing markets like China, India, Brazil, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam will play a big role in the product's demand. Over the next few years, it is expected that the widespread use of synthetic leather in the footwear industry in several different regional markets will also help the industry grow worldwide.

Among all regions, Asia-Pacific emerged as the largest market for the global synthetic leather market, with a market share of around 32.78% and 33.7 billion of market revenue in 2021.

  • In 2021, Asia-Pacific emerged as the largest market for the global synthetic leather market, with a market share of around 32.78% and 33.7 billion of the market revenue. China, India, and South Korea are expected to have the fastest-growing economies in the APAC region. When people have more money to spend, and the population keeps growing, this will open up many industry opportunities. China is one of the most important markets for leather, both in terms of how much leather it makes and how much it sells. On the other hand, the coronavirus epidemic has greatly affected the number of things made in the country. To stop the virus from spreading, even more, several factories have shut down or slowed their production by a lot. In the not-too-distant future, it is expected that the limited production in the manufacturing industry due to a stop or slowdown in operations, limited supply and transportation in the country, and slowing infrastructure will hurt the demand for synthetic leather from the end-use application.
  • The North America market is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR between 2022 and 2030. Animal rights groups like PETA, WWF, and others have become more worried over the past few years. This has made it harder for the leather industry to grow. As a direct result, there has been a rise in the demand for products made of fake leather in the area. The European market grew greatly because of how well the consumer electronics and car industries performed. Because of the ongoing global financial crisis, the region's governments are putting more effort into making cheap products from renewable resources that last a long time. Because of this change, the market for synthetic leather in this area will likely grow.
