This report describes and forecasts world and regional demand for each of 66 different technical textile end-use products containing polypropylene and the consequent consumption of polypropylene in each of its forms (polymer, fibre, yarn and fabric).

• Polypropylene consumption will continue to grow strongly at 4.1% p.a. to 2010
• Greatest potential is in woven tape for packaging and various melt-laid nonwovens

• of 66 separate end-use products containing polypropylene
• for the world overall
• and for 8 different regions: North America, South America, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, South Asia, North East Asia, South East Asia and Rest of World (Middle East, Central Asia, Africa and Oceania).

It also makes derived forecasts for the components from which these end-use products are made:

• the 8 different types of polymer/fibre form used to make these end-use products: polymer chip, staple fibre, spun staple yarn, textile multifilament, high tenacity multifilament, Bulked Continuous Filament (BCF), monofilament, and tape/slit film
• the 6 different types of fabric and other textile product used to make these end-use products: unspun fibre, woven fabric, knitted fabric, nonwoven fabric, yarn type products (e.g.baler twine), other fabric (e.g. artificial turf).
