Based on application, cigarette filters is projected to lead the cellulose acetate market during the forecast period.
A major application of cellulose acetate is for the filtration of cigarette smoke. Cellulose acetate has prevailed as the filter material of choice as it combines excellent filtration properties with greater acceptance of its signature taste. It also has a superior biodegradability profile, which is an advantage in the event the filters end up in the environment. The growth of the cigarette manufacturing industry is, therefore, expected to drive the cellulose acetate market. The outlook for the global cigarette manufacturing industry remains positive due to the increase in the number of cigarette smokers as well as the purchasing power of consumers.
