Market Overview:
The global flexible transparent plastics market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for flexible transparent plastics in packaging, building & construction, electrical & electronics, automotive, consumer goods and healthcare applications. Additionally, the growing demand for lightweight and durable materials is also contributing to the growth of this market. However, volatility in raw material prices may restrain the growth of this market during the forecast period. On the basis of type, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is expected to lead the global flexible transparent plastics market duringthe forecast period owingto its properties such as high clarity and toughness.
Product Definition:
Flexible transparent plastics are materials made of organic polymers that allow light to pass through them. They are used in a variety of applications, including windows, displays, and solar cells. The importance of flexible transparent plastics is that they allow for the transmission of light while being durable and flexible enough to be used in a variety of applications.
Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET):
PET is a widely accepted thermoplastic resin in the flexible transparent plastic market. It has superior properties such as high strength, stiffness, dimensional stability and excellent chemical resistance. PET can be recycled into many products such as films, fibers and resins which further finds application in food packaging & containers along with bottles & jars used for carbonated drinks.
PET is derived from crude oil through steam cracking of ethylene glycols which are derivatives of crude oil.
Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC):
Polyvinyl chloride is a thermoplastic polymer with the formula (CH2)n. It is manufactured from vinyl chloride, which is derived from ethylene and chlorine. It has similar properties as polystyrene but more flexibility. PVC can be dissolved in various solvents such as acetone, ethanol, water or oil to produce solutions called copolymers containing different ratios of vinyl chloride and other monomers such as butadiene or acrylonitrile.
Application Insights:
The packaging segment led the market and accounted for more than 35.0% share of the global revenue in 2017. The growth of this segment is attributed to increasing demand for flexible transparent plastics from various packaging applications including food & beverage, medical, cosmetic, paper and textile interiors, industrial containers among others.
Building & construction was another major application accounting for 31.8% share of the total demand in 2017 owing to rising use of transparent plastic sheets as roofing membranes or skylights among others on account of their low cost compared to glass counterparts which is expected to drive product consumption over the forecast period thereby contributing toward a significant market share.
Flexible transparent plastics are also widely used in automotive interior components such as airbags (inflatable.
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 a major share of global population and has been witnessing rapid urbanization, which has led to an increase in construction activities. This factor is anticipated to propel product demand from packaging, building & construction, automotive, consumer goods as well as healthcare applications in the region over the forecast period.
The growth of manufacturing industries including automotive and electronics across emerging economies such as China and India are anticipated to drive product demand from electrical & electronics application segment during the forecast period.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from end-use industries such as automotive, construction, and packaging
- Rising awareness about the benefits of flexible transparent plastics over traditional materials
- Technological advancements that have led to the development of new applications for flexible transparent plastics
- Growing demand for lightweight and durable materials in transportation and other sectors
- Expansion of global manufacturing base, which is expected to drive the growth of flexible transparent plastics market in developing countries
