Market Definition:
Silicone textile softener is a finishing agent used for improving the physical characteristics like durability, flexibility, softness, etc., of cotton, wool, silk, polyester, nylon, and other fabrics, through fibre strengthening and reduction in abrasion. Silicone textile softener are a finishing agent as they are water insoluble and have to be applied after emulsification and dissolution in organic solvents.
Market Insights:
The Global Silicone Textile Softener Market is projected to grow at a considerable CAGR during the forecast period, i.e., 2022-27. The textile sector worldwide has been evolving continuously in major countries like China, India, the US, and European Union, mainly due to rapid advancements in technologies and industrialization, enabling modern installation for efficient fabric production. As a result, it is one of the key factors driving the demand for silicone textile softeners.
The ability of silicone textile softeners to provide softness & smoothness, abrasion resistance, elasticity, wrinkle resistance, etc., to the fabric has positively impacted the growth of the silicone textile softener market during 2017-20. Besides, various plans of the leading companies to introduce new fabric production plants in developing countries, such as Guatemala, Algeria, etc., have positively influenced the demand for silicone textile softeners in recent years and are projected to contribute to the overall market growth during 2022-27.

Impact of Covid-19 on the Global Silicone Textile Softener Market
In 2020, the textile industry has been among the worst-hit sectors due to the Covid-19 pandemic. With governments’-mandated factory closures worldwide, the market witnessed adverse disruptions since it did not fall under "vital" goods & services.
Moreover, the lockdown imposition resulted in a temporary shutdown of manufacturing units, reduced import & export orders, and non-availability of skilled workers, along with production delays. Besides, the stringent movement restrictions also negatively impacted the market due to low consumer demand through offline platforms.
India, China, Bangladesh, & Vietnam are the major countries where the market suffered significant supply chain disruptions & suspended manufacturing activities. As a result, it led to the cancellation of contracts and trouble obtaining raw materials from China, i.e., the source of silicone textile softeners.
