Down and Feather Market: Rising Consumer Spending Capacity in Developing Economies Contributing to Global Growth, TMR

The global down and feather market is highly fragmented with many small and medium players, especially in China. The top three processors and manufacturers of fine down and feather blends - Allied Feather and Down, KL Down, and Feather Industries - held around 14% of the market in 2015.
Some of the key growth and expansion strategies identified by Transparency Market Research include the development of new products catering to changing consumer lifestyles and investments in technological innovations. In July 2014, Allied Feather and Down introduced a proprietary technology to develop a fluorocarbon-free, water-resistant down. The down was developed implementing an advanced technology called HyperDRY ECO.  

The opportunity presented by the global down and feather market stood at US$4.9 bn in 2015 and is projected to be worth US$8.7 bn by 2024. The market is projected to expand at a CAGR of 5.0% in terms of volume and 6.6% in terms of revenue during the forecast period.
Duck Segment to Register Faster Growth by Volume, Goose Segment by Revenue
By type, duck dominates the global down and feather market. In terms of volume, this is likely to expand at a CAGR of 5% between 2016 and 2024, higher than that presented by the goose segment. However, in terms of revenue, the goose segment is estimated to expand at a higher CAGR of 6.8% during the forecast period.
The comforters segment is projected to be a highly attractive product type of Down and Feather during the forecast period. Pillows and apparel segments are anticipated to exhibit stable demand in mature markets such as Europe and North America; however, there exists growth potential in other regions as well.
Asia Pacific is considered to be the leading market for down and feathers and its global market share by volume was 31.4% in 2015. During the forecast period, the consumption of down and feathers in the region is expected to increase at a CAGR of 6.1%.
TMR Notes Increase in Global Consumption of Duck and Goose Meat
The global consumption of duck and goose meat has increased significantly, particularly in countries such as China, Thailand, Malaysia, and Myanmar. Foie gras – a luxury food product made of the liver of a duck or goose – is a French delicacy that has gained popularity in several parts of the world. “Down and feathers are by-products of the meat industry and therefore, an increase in the consumption of duck and goose meat augments the down and feather market,” the TMR analyst reports.
A surge in the rate of urbanization across various developing economies of the world and the rise in consumer spending power have also had a significant impact on the demand for down and feather products. “Approximately 50% of the global population resides in urban areas and a growing percentage of rural inhabitants are also expected to move to urban areas in the near future,” the lead analyst states. This shift has given rise to an urban culture that strongly influences consumer behavior and individual lifestyle. This, coupled with an increase in purchasing power is likely to boost the demand for luxury clothing and comforters, thereby driving the market for down and feathers.

Superabrasives (Turning, Cutting, Buffing, Drilling, Boring, Grinding) Market Research Report 2025

An abrasive is a material which molds or provides finishing to a work piece through a process which includes buffing, grinding, cutting, as well as polishing. Abrasion typically depends on the difference in the hardness of the material and the abrasive (with the latter being the harder of the two). Unlike regular abrasion where any two solid materials that repeatedly rub against each other tend to wear away, superabrasives possess the kind of hardness that enables them to stay usable for a longer period of time. On the basis of hardness, the top two superabrasives include diamond and cubic boron nitride (CBN). Industrial diamonds used as superabrasives are exceptionally hard materials. However, they display several technological limitations. For instance, when a diamond comes in contact with a ferrous alloy such as steel or a nickel superalloy, the resulting formation of carbide leads to its abrasion. Also, a diamond-containing tool can only be used at moderate temperatures a...

Industrial Lubricants Market: Strong Demand Across Automotive Industry, Trends To 2025

Lubricants refer to the organic or inorganic material primarily being use to decrease friction between two surfaces in contact. Lubricants play a key role in several industries as well as in commercial and residential sectors. One of their most common uses is in the lubrication of bearings and gears, allowing for their easy movement at high speeds, without loss in energy, prevent excessive generation of heat, or most importantly, prevent damage that would be caused otherwise. Industrial lubricants are, therefore, essential in enhancing the overall efficiency of a machine that contains moving parts in contact with one another. The global industrial lubricants market is currently expanding at a solid growth rate, driven by several factors and spearheaded by the likes of BP, Total, Chevron Corporation, ExxonMobil, and Shell.

Rapid Prototyping Market - Rapidly Gaining Importance in Aerospace Sector, Research By 2024

Rapid prototyping is a technique in which the physical modeling of a design is done with the help of specialized machining technology. It was developed initially in the mid-1980s, the principle used in this technology is of solid modeling with the help of computer programs (i.e. CAD). Solid modeling makes use of computer aided-design (CAD) data to completely describe not just the external shape of parts or equipment, but its interior volume as well as the outside surfaces. The computer model is sliced into thin layers and the part of the product or commodity to be modelled or developed as per the requirement, is eventually fabricated by adding layers onto each other. Obtain Report Details @   http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/rapid-prototyping-market.html The primary benefit of the system is that almost any shape can be manufactured using computerized programs. Time and money savings vary from 50% to 90% compared to conventional systems. Types of rapid proto...
