 Plastic Pipes Industry Outlook.svg)
Product Definition:
A pipe made from a polymer matrix reinforced with glass fibers. Glass-fiber-reinforced (GFR) plastic pipes are used in many applications because they have high strength and stiffness, low weight, and resistance to corrosion and abrasion.
Polyester Pipe:
Polyester pipes are used in the construction industry for water supply and drainage. They are available in various diameters and lengths, which can be customized as per client requirements. The growth factor for polyester pipes is expected to be high owing to its properties such as corrosion resistance, flexibility at low temperatures, less expensive than copper or steel piping systems installation costs & easy maintenance.
Vinyl Ester Pipe:
Vinyl ester pipe is a kind of plastic piping material, which consists of vinyl ester resins. It offers several advantages over traditional piping materials such as metal and concrete. The pipes are easy to install and they can be installed in any position without the need for reheating or cold-forming; this makes them suitable for use in both rigid (cast-iron) and flexible (polyvinyl chloride) plumbing systems.
Application Insights:
The other application segment includes food and beverage, packaging, electrical and electronics, chemical processing, municipal solid waste treatment plants (WWTPs), residential construction) wastewater treatment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2017. The product is used to carry chemicals at high temperatures without any leakage or permeation of fluids. It is also used in the manufacturing of pipes that are required to operate at high temperatures for a long time period without experiencing any wear or tear.
Increasing investments by various governments in developing infrastructure has been a key factor driving the demand for GFR plastics pipe systems in developed economies such as U.K., Germany and France over the recent past years.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in terms of revenue in 2017. The growth is attributed to increasing use of the product for manufacturing wastewater treatment facilities, high standards of living, and growing environmental concerns among people. In addition, presence of a large number of glass fiber manufacturers coupled with favorable government policies promoting domestic production is expected to drive demand over the forecast period.
Asia Pacific region is anticipated to witness significant growth over the next eight years owing to rapid urbanization and industrialization along with rising awareness regarding GFR pipes among potential end-users. Moreover, supportive government regulations aimed at encouraging investments through tax benefits are likely to boost regional demand during this period. Rising infrastructural development activities across emerging economies such as China and India are also expected favorably impact industry expansion over the coming years.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for GFR pipes from water and wastewater treatment plants due to their high strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance.
- Rising investments in municipal infrastructure projects across the globe, which is expected to drive the demand for GFR pipes over the next few years.
- Growing use of GFR pipes in oil & gas pipelines due to their superior mechanical properties and chemical resistance.
- Increasing awareness about the benefits of using GFR pipes among construction companies and engineers will boost market growth during the forecast period.
