Key highlights and insights from 7th edition of INDA North American Supply Report will be revealed exclusively to INDA’s members at two upcoming webinars to be held on June 23-24. The new INDA report found that North American nonwoven production exceeded capacity increases for 3rd year, while nonwoven material trade decreased due to declines with China.

The webinar on June 23 will show capacity and production supply-side developments on the nonwoven industry’s improving operating rates and crucial supply/demand balance as the market entered the pandemic.

On June 24, highlights of trade, imports and exports of nonwoven material with a focus on the decline from China and an increase from the rest of the world will be shown.

The programmes will include a 25-minute live webinar presentation with 25 minutes dedicated to answering members’ online chat questions in real-time.

The new report is based on extensive research, producer surveys and interviews with industry leaders, including INDA members and nonmembers. It provides an overall view of North American supply, including the key metrics of capacity, production and operating rates in addition to regional trade.

“INDA’s North American Supply Report furthers our objective of providing valuable data and actionable industry information to enhance decision-making,” said Brad Kalil, director of market intelligence & economic insights. “As always, the increasing participation of nonwoven producers providing their insights and results makes our success possible.”

In the 2017 report, INDA introduced production by end-use market. For the 2019 report, production by raw material usage has been added. The 70-page report contains 34 figures and 11 tables.

Along with the quarterly INDA Market Pulse and monthly Price Trends Summary, the annual report is provided to the 365 INDA member companies and associates as part of a member’s only benefit. The data gathered for this report serves as the foundation for the biannual North American Nonwovens Industry Outlook, which will be available for purchase this fall.

INDA, the Association of the Nonwoven Fabrics Industry, serves hundreds of member companies in the nonwovens/engineered fabrics industry in global commerce. Since 1968, INDA events have helped members connect, learn, innovate, and develop their businesses.
