Product Definition:
Building and Construction Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) is a lightweight, insulating foam made from small plastic beads of polystyrene. EPS is used in many applications where insulation or a lightweight material is needed, such as in building construction, packaging materials, and cold storage.
Low Density:
Low Density EPS is a type of insulation material that is widely used in the building and construction industry. It helps in lowering the overall energy consumption of buildings, which results in reduced operational costs and improved environmental performance. Low-density EPS also aids to improve acoustic comfort by reducing sound transmission, thus making it suitable for use as an insulating material within commercial spaces such as offices, schools, hospitals and other public buildings.
High Density:
High-density polystyrene (HDPE) is a widely used thermoplastic polymer in the building and construction industry. It is resistant to several chemical solvents, acids, and bases making it suitable for use as an insulating material in electrical fittings and fixtures of buildings. The growing demand for energy-efficient green buildings across the globe has been driving the demand for high-density polystyrene over recent years.
Application Insights:
The commercial buildings segment accounted for the largest market share in 2017 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of XX% over the forecast period. The product is widely used in the construction of office buildings, retail stores, shopping malls, hospitals and medical centers, hotels and restaurants owing to its cost-effectiveness along with superior characteristics such as durability & flexibility.
Expansion of retail shopping malls across various regions coupled with rising consumer spending on luxury goods has resulted in increased demand for high quality building materials that enhance aesthetics without increasing costs significantly. EPS is one such example where aesthetic appeal coupled with energy efficiency makes it an ideal building material choice while constructing a new shopping mall or even while retrofitting an existing one.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in terms of revenue with a share of 59.2% in 2017. The region is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to rapid urbanization and increasing per capita income, which will lead to an increase in construction activities. In addition, growing population and rising standards of living are likely to drive demand for residential buildings, thereby driving product demand over the forecast period.
The commercial sector is also anticipated to be one of the key end users for EPS due its lightweight characteristics as comparedto conventional building materials such as steel and concrete resulting into reduced energy consumption during transportation process from manufacturing site/warehouse/plant etc., thus boosting product demand across Asia Pacific region over the projected timeframe.
Europe accounted for a major share followed by North America owing both regions being home for some or other form or weight building & construction expanded polystyrene (EPS) market presence across countries such as Germany, U.K.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for energy-efficient and green buildings: The global Building and Construction Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) market is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 5% during the forecast period. This can be attributed to the increasing demand for energy-efficient and green buildings, as they help in reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
- Rising urbanization and population growth: The global Building and Construction Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) market is also driven by the rising urbanization rates across the world, which has led to an increase in the number of construction projects. Additionally, population growth is also contributing to the growth of this market as more people need housing facilities.
- Technological advancements: The Building and Construction Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) market is witnessing rapid technological advancements, which are helping manufacturers offer better products with enhanced features such as thermal insulation properties, light weighting capabilities, etcetera . This is resulting in an increase in their adoption among consumers worldwide.
- Stringent government regulations: Governments across various countries are implementing stringent regulations related to building codes & standards that mandate builders use energy-efficient materials such as Building and Construction Expanded Polystyrene (EPS). This is aiding in propelling the growth of this market globally .
