The string wound filter materials market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.86 billion in 2024 to $1.99 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to water quality concerns, industrial processes, regulatory compliance, wastewater treatment, increased demand for string wound filters.

The string wound filter materials market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.75 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to global water scarcity, industrial expansion, evolving filtration needs, consumer education and market awareness, environmental regulations. Major trends in the forecast period include microplastic filtration, customized filter solutions, wastewater treatment, smart filtration, advanced filter media.

The growing demand for wastewater treatment is anticipated to drive the expansion of the string wound filter materials market in the upcoming forecast period. Wastewater treatment involves the removal of pollutants from wastewater or sewage and transforming it into effluent that can be reintegrated into the water supply with minimal environmental impact. String wound filter materials are commonly used and highly efficient in this process. These filters are a type of depth filter that captures dirt not only on the surface but also throughout the material. For example, a report from An Phriomh-Oifig Staidrimh, a government organization in Ireland, indicated that the number of domestic wastewater treatment registrations rose from 486,904 in 2022 to 492,359 in 2023, marking an increase of 5,455 registrations. Thus, the rising need for wastewater treatment is propelling the growth of the string wound filter materials market.

The increasing demand for clean drinking water is expected to drive the growth of the string wound filter materials market in the future. Clean water is defined as water that is free from contaminants, pollutants, harmful bacteria, and pathogens, making it safe for human consumption. String wound filter materials are utilized to eliminate particulates and impurities from water, ensuring it is clean and safe to drink. For example, a report from UNESCO, a United Nations educational, scientific, and cultural organization based in France, noted that as of 2022, 2.2 billion people lacked access to safe drinking water. Additionally, in 2022, rural areas accounted for four out of every five individuals without access to essential drinking water services. Therefore, the rising demand for clean drinking water is propelling the string wound filter materials market.

Technological advancements are a prominent trend gaining traction in the string wound filter materials market. Major companies in this sector are actively developing technological solutions for string wound filter materials. For instance, Gopani, an Indian filter cartridge manufacturer, offers Clarywound 3X string wound filter cartridges, boasting three times the filtration efficiency of regular wound filter cartridges. These cartridges are produced using a patented CNC machining process that creates a true multi-layered micronic gradient across five separate cartridges.

Major companies in the string wound filter materials market are developing high-quality and durable components, such as cartridge filter housings, to address the industry's demand for efficient filtration solutions. Cartridge filter housings serve as enclosures that securely hold filter cartridges, allowing liquids or gases to flow through the filter media to remove contaminants. For example, in May 2023, Yonseng Filter, a manufacturing company based in China, introduced cartridge filter housings, which are vital components in various filtration systems. These housings are designed to securely hold filter cartridges while enabling fluid flow through the filter media. They can be constructed from materials like stainless steel or polypropylene, ensuring durability and corrosion resistance. Cartridge filter housings are utilized in numerous applications, including water treatment, industrial processes, and pharmaceuticals, where it is essential to maintain clean and contaminant-free fluids. Additionally, these housings often feature components such as pressure gauges, drain ports, and easy access for cartridge replacement, enhancing their functionality and efficiency in supporting filtration systems.

In February 2022, Micronics Engineered Filtration Group, a US-based manufacturer of filtration solutions, which includes filter media and equipment, acquired National Filter Media for an undisclosed amount. The purpose of Micronics' acquisition is to improve their in-house manufacturing capabilities and broaden their product offerings in air pollution control and liquid filtration, utilizing the combined expertise of both companies to better serve their global clientele. National Filter Media is a US-based manufacturing firm that specializes in engineered filtration solutions.
