DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Cellulose Nanofibers Market in Japan 2020" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Strong government and industry funding has given Japan the world's largest cellulose nanofibers (CNF) industry with commercial production facilities operating across the country. Also, ambitious national targets for reducing CO2 emissions make nanocellulose particularly attractive for product development.

Japan is by far the largest producer and consumer of CNF products. CNF research and development started in Japan around 2000, and more than 50 companies are seriously developing their manufacturing technologies and applications. Additional companies are also involved in government projects.

These companies produce CNF on a pre-commercial and commercial scale and produce numerous products or supply to OEMs.

Several CNF-based products have come onto the market in Japan including:

• Ballpoint pen ink gels
• Adult deodorizing products
• Audio equipment
• Hygiene wipes and other products
• Footwear
• Cosmetics
• Food additives
• Packaging additives
• Concrete additives
• Automotive composites
