Geosynthetics constitute natural or polymeric materials used with soil, rock, or any other related construction material. Global development and production of various types of geosynthetics. Geotextiles, geogrids, geonets, geocells, geomembranes, and geocomposites are some of the main types of geosynthetics. Geosynthetics are polymer products produced mainly using polyester, polyethylene, and polypropylene. Commonly manufactured geosynthetic products include geotextiles, geogrids, geonets, and geomembranes, and are used as key components in landfills, drainage, filtration, erosion control, and various civil construction projects. Geosynthetics are extremely cost-effective, durable, and versatile, and are widely used to improve the mechanical and physical properties of soil so that it can withstand harsh climatic conditions. Mining, transportation, and agriculture are some of the key areas where geosynthetics are widely used.

Geosynthetics market size, estimates, and forecasts are provided in terms of sales volume (K Units) and revenue (million USD), with historical and forecast data for the period 2017 to 2030, with 2022 being considered as the base year. This report segments the global Geosynthetics market in detail. Regional market sizes related to products by type, by application, and by player are also delivered. In estimating the size of the market, we considered the impact of COVID-19 and the Russian-Ukraine war.

Significant Market Growth Factors

Market Drivers

Rapidly growing populations and urbanization have resulted in rising levels of solid and liquid waste across the globe. Rising environmental awareness has led to increased demand for proper waste and water management programs. Geosynthetics are used as landfill caps to prevent fluid migration to landfills by reducing or eliminating leachate production and associated disposal costs after closure. Due to the growing public concerns about severe and widespread water pollution, geosynthetics are widely used in various water management activities. Geosynthetic lining systems are used in waste treatment lagoons of wastewater treatment plants to protect water resources including lakes, rivers, ponds, aquifers, and reservoirs, which is expected to increase the demand for geosynthetics over the forecast period. 

Market Restraints

The price and availability of raw materials are the main factors that affect the price of the final product. Most of the raw materials needed for geosynthetics (polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride and ethylene propylene diene monomer) are susceptible to fluctuations in crude oil prices. The rise and fall of crude oil prices directly affect the prices of raw materials required for the manufacture of geosynthetics. However, due to the current pandemic, almost all countries have banned domestic and international travel. This has led to a sharp reduction in demand for transportation fuels, further affecting crude oil prices.

Market Opportunity

The mining industry is one of the major consumers of geosynthetics. Demand for metals and minerals in Asia is expected to drive the mining sector. China is a major producer of rare earth metals, gold, copper, coal, limestone and steel, while India has witnessed massive investments in the steel industry. In addition, South America has become the preferred destination for the world's major mining companies to invest in the mining industry. Major countries such as Brazil, Peru and Chile have enormous mining capacity and have seen increased investment by foreign companies over the past five years. Increasing adoption of advanced extraction processes in mining activities is expected to drive the geosynthetics market over the forecast period.
