Market Overview:
The global plasticizers market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for plasticizers in flooring & wall coverings, film & sheet, wire & cable, coated fabric and consumer goods applications. In terms of type, the low phthalates segment is projected to lead the global plasticizers market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to their properties such as low volatility and toxicity levels.
Product Definition:
Plasticizers are substances that are added to plastics to increase their flexibility, transparency, durability, and longevity. Without plasticizers, most plastics would be brittle and inflexible. Plasticizers play an important role in the manufacture of many consumer products, including toys, bottles, packaging materials, and medical devices.
Low Phthalates:
Phthalates are additives used in plasticizers. They are mostly added to PVC for flexibility and softening. Some phthalates such as Di-2-ethylhexyl Phthalate (DEHP) and Dibutyl Phthalate (DBP) have been identified as possible carcinogens by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). This has led to a ban or restrictions on their usage across various industries globally.
High Phthalates:
High phthalates are used as plasticizers in PVC and polyvinyl chloride. They are also used in other products such as vinyl flooring, toys, medical devices, shower curtains and vinylite paints. The global high phthalates market size was estimated at USD 1.10 billion in 2015 owing to its increasing demand from the PVC industry across the globe especially from Asia Pacific region due to rapid urbanization and industrialization mainly China & India.
Application Insights:
The others application segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2017 and is projected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. The segment includes personal care, adhesives & sealants, coatings, printing inks and cosmetics among others. Increasing demand for plasticizers from various other applications is expected to drive market growth over the coming years.
Flooring & wall coverings was the largest application segment accounting for a volume share of 33% in 2017 owing to increasing demand from construction sector globally coupled with high consumption rate of PVC flooring systems within residential as well as commercial sectors across regions such as North America and Europe. In addition, growing use of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) flooring systems due to their durability along with low cost coupled with increased consumer expenditure on home improvement projects is anticipated fuel industry expansion over next few years.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in terms of revenue with a share of over 40.0% in 2017. The region is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to rapid industrialization and urbanization coupled with increasing disposable income levels among consumers, which will drive demand for plasticizers across various end-use industries such as construction, automotive, packaging and consumer goods.
The growing manufacturing sector along with rising investments from foreign players is anticipated to boost production activities across several industries including automotive, electronics and others that use plastics as raw material or components. This factor is also projected to propel regional market growth during the forecast period.
North America accounted for more than 20% share of total revenue in 2017 on account of high product consumption by application sectors such as flooring & wall coverings; film & sheet; coated fabric; wire & cable etc., especially in U S A .
Growth Factors:
- Growing demand from construction and automotive industries
- Increasing use of plasticizers in medical applications
- Rising awareness about the benefits of plasticizers
- Technological advancements in the production of plasticizers
- Growing demand from emerging economies
