Product Definition:
Flexible Plastic Tubing is a type of tubing that is made from plastic and is flexible. It is often used in medical applications because it can be easily bent and shaped to fit around body parts. It is also used in many industrial applications because it can be twisted and turned to fit into tight spaces.
PVC Flexible Tubing:
PVC flexible tubing is a kind of plastic tubing made from Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC). It has applications in various end-use industries such as HVAC, medical devices, and food processing. PVC flexible tubing is used for manufacturing various products such as vacuum tubes, water supply & drainage systems tubes, air ducts and gas supply & drainage systems.
Polyethylene Flexible Tubing:
Polyethylene (PE) tubing is a flexible, clear plastic tube that can be used for delivering fluids in various industries. It is available in different sizes and shapes and can be customized as per the industry requirement. PE tubing finds application in several end-use industries such as food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, chemicals & fertilizers, automotive lubricants packaging solutions among others.
Application Insights:
The automotive application segment led the market and accounted for more than 30.0% share of the global flexible plastic tubing demand in 2017. The segment is projected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to increasing use of plastics in automobile manufacturing, such as instrument panel, engine parts, exterior body components and interior trim pieces.
Flexible plastic tubing is used for cooling system maintenance by providing a safe environment for engine operation at normal temperatures without exceeding maximum temperature limits imposed on engines by federal regulations (40°C). These products are also used within radiators and water-pump interiors to prevent moisture from getting into sensitive electronic equipment areas or reaching other parts that could get damaged due to condensation formation.
Medical & pharmaceutical was one of the fastest-growing application segments with a CAGR around 9% from 2018 to 2030 owing to increasing usage of these products in medical devices such as oxygen tanks, surgical drapes, syringes.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific was the largest market in 2016 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region accounts for nearly half of global population, which has led to an increase in demand from healthcare and other service industries. Moreover, China’s rapid urbanization coupled with increasing foreign investments is likely to have a positive impact on industry growth over the next eight years.
North America accounted for more than 20% of global revenue share in 2016 owing to high demand from oil & gas sector due mainly to shale gas boom that has taken place across U.S., Canada, and Mexico since 2010s resulting into huge consumption of flexible plastic tubing products such as pressure pipes, hoses, manifolds etc.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from medical and pharmaceutical industries for flexible plastic tubing for various applications such as drug delivery, fluid transfer, and blood collection.
- Rising demand from the food and beverage industry for flexible plastic tubing to package, store, and transport food products.
- Growing use of flexible plastic tubing in automotive applications for fuel lines, air intake systems, coolant lines etc.
- Rapid expansion of the semiconductor industry which is fueling the growth of the global flexible plastic tubing market 5 Increased adoption of lightweight materials in aerospace & defense sector to reduce weight and improve fuel efficiency
