Plastic Resins Market Overview

Product usage in the construction, automotive, electrical, and electronics industries is projected to drive market growth. Regulatory intervention to decrease gross vehicle weight to increase fuel efficiency and reduce carbon emissions has led automotive OEMs to use resins as a substitute for steel and aluminium in the fabrication of automotive components. This in turn is expected to drive the growth of the market.Plastic Resins MarketTo know about the Research Methodology :- Request Free Sample Report

Plastic Resins Market Dynamics:

New packaging industry advancements such as CO2RE foaming technology, big data, and IoT integration are likely to boost the plastic resins market in the future. Convenience features such as resealable packs, easy-opening, stand-up pouches, and lower pack sizes for single-servings are being introduced, as are more promotional packs and brand extensions to ensure customer loyalty. Similarly, recent advancements in the creation of biodegradable polymers that disintegrate spontaneously through the activity of microorganisms such as bacteria, algae, and fungi are gaining attention. These advancements in packaging are expected to boost the use of plastics, causing the market to grow. Also, favorable federal regulations on carbon emissions enacted by agencies such as the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), as well as EU initiatives to develop plastics applications for lightweight and fuel-efficient cars, are expected to boost the global market's growth. Stringent recyclability requirements and the depletion of traditional materials like metal and wood are projected to drive product demand in the construction sector for pipes, windows, cables, storage tanks, and other uses. Plastics are a long-lasting, cost- and energy-efficient material, which encourages its use in construction applications. Product consumption is also projected to rise in the healthcare industry as a result of increased manufacturing of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) such as face masks, face shields, medical gowns, and different medical equipment in response to the rising number of COVID-19 cases worldwide. Increasing government expenditure in the construction industry, particularly in India and China, is projected to drive product demand in infrastructure and construction applications.

Impact of COVID pandemic on the Plastic Resins market

COVID pandemic has a major impact on the market in terms of sales as more than 44% of sales of units are hampered owing to disruption in transport capabilities of the manufacturers due to stringent norms of lockdown and increasing safety concerns. Furthermore, supply chain interruptions, demand destruction, and changes in customer behavior owing to stringent lockdown conditions across the globe have impacted the plastic resins market. During the early phases of the Covid-19 epidemic, there was a huge surge in demand for resin-related consumer items such as packing materials and hygiene products. However, demand for resin-related consumer items used in automotive, construction, and other industry sectors fell significantly. The demand-supply imbalance, shortage of raw resources, and price volatility arose as a result of government-imposed lockdowns on many industries.

Plastic Resins Market Segmentation Analysis

By Product, in 2023, the crystalline resins product segment had the highest revenue share of more than 61 %, and this dominance is projected to continue throughout the forecast period. Due to increased demand from food packaging, stretch wrap, medical applications, and other applications, the Polyethylene (PE) resin sub-segment accounted for a significant share in the crystalline type segment. In 2023, the non-crystalline resin segment accounted for around a fifth of total sales. However, due to the increased use of alternative polymers such as polyamide, polyether ether ketone, and liquid crystal polymers, demand for these goods is projected to drop during the forecast period. The engineering plastic segment held a minor %age of the market. However, it is expected to grow at a faster-than-average rate throughout the forecast period due to these polymers' superior mechanical and thermal characteristics, wear and chemical resistance, and dimensional stability. During the forecast period, the super engineering plastic segment is predicted to increase at a CAGR of 4.1 %. Because of their excellent electrical and thermal characteristics, these products are widely used in semiconductor packing, high-speed connection packaging, and medical applications. By Application, the packaging segment accounted for more than 36% of its revenue share by 2023 and is expected to increase further in a stable CAGR over the projection period. The rising packaging industry is boosting growth in the segment thanks to the increased demand for packaged goods and drinks. Moreover, some government organizations have set forth rigorous standards on the safe use of plastic materials to encourage segment growth for food and beverage applications. The automotive application segment is forecast to develop considerably in the future years, owing to an increased usage of plastics in automotive components as well as increased production of passenger cars and heavy-duty vehicles, notably in Asia Pacific, Central, and South America. The medical devices application category is expected to grow at the fastest rate between 2024 and 2030. Resins are frequently used in the production of medical devices because they provide improved clarity, cost-effectiveness, and biocompatibility. To acquire acceptable characteristics for application in medical devices, several polymers such as Polyethylene (PE) and Polystyrene (PS) are mixed.

Plastic Resins Market Regional Analysis:

In 2023, Asia-Pacific accounted for about two-fifths of the global plastic resins market, followed by Europe. Rising population, urbanization, and the substitution of several metals in industries such as packaging and automotive drive market expansion in this area. In 2023, China had the highest revenue share of 33 %. China is self-sufficient in the manufacture of plastics, with an adequate number of facilities and production capacity to fulfil local demand. Furthermore, due to its extensive industrial base, China exports a wide range of plastics to adjacent countries. Simultaneously, North America is expected to have the fastest CAGR of 5.0 % over the projection period. Growing demand for sustainable and recyclable materials, as well as a portion of the growing food and beverage industry, are projected to drive market growth in this region. Regulatory policies defined by the FDA, EPA, and other agencies are anticipated to serve as a constraint; however, the influence of this aspect is predicted to be minimized by alternate manufacturing methods and product sustainability throughout the product's life cycle. Europe is expected to grow at a slower-than-average rate during the forecast period. The European market is characterized by stringent environmental restrictions imposed by regulatory agencies such as the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) and the European Commission. Many European countries, including Denmark, France, Germany, and Austria, have had landfill prohibitions in place for decades. High landfill tipping fees, dumping taxes, waste management, and landfill closure expenses have pushed Europeans to convert to recycled products.
