Market Overview:
The global polyvinyl chloride resins (PVC) 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 PVC in building & construction, automotive, electrical, footwear, and packaging applications. Additionally, the growing demand for PVC in Asia Pacific and Middle East & Africa is also contributing to the growth of the market. However, volatility in raw material prices may restrain the growth of this market during the forecast period. On basis of type, rigid polyvinyl chloride accounted for majority share of global PVC resin market in 2017 and is projected to maintain its dominance during forecast period as well. Rigid PVC finds major application in building & construction sector due to its excellent physical properties such as high impact resistance and stiffness which makes it suitable for manufacturing window profiles, door frames etcetera . On basis on application , building & construction was largest segment accounting for more than one-third share of global PVCR resin market revenue followed by automotive sector . Electrical industry is projected witness highest CAGR over next decade owing rising demand from countries such as China , India and Japan among others .
Product Definition:
A polymer made from the monomer vinyl chloride, PVC is one of the most widely used plastics in the world. It is strong, flexible, and relatively inexpensive. PVC is often used to make pipes and tubing, construction materials such as window frames and siding, and consumer goods such as credit cards and records.
Rigid Polyvinyl Chloride:
Rigid polyvinyl chloride is a thermoplastic polymer, produced by the polymerization of vinyl chloride. It has high tensile strength and low elongation to break when subjected to tension or compression. Rigid PVC is used for manufacturing pipes, tubes, films and other packaging products such as consumer goods containers among others.
Flexible Polyvinyl Chloride:
Flexible polyvinyl chloride is a thermoplastic polymer, which can be processed at low temperatures. It has high tensile strength and durability as compared to other plastics. Flexible PVC is used in the production of films, tapes & sheets, coatings and adhesives owing to its properties such as flexibility & good elasticity along with excellent surface gloss.
Application Insights:
Building and construction was the largest application segment in 2016, accounting for over 55% of the overall demand. Increasing infrastructural development activities across the globe are expected to drive polyvinyl chloride resins (PVC) consumption in this application segment over the forecast period.
The automotive sector is also likely to witness significant growth owing to increasing consumer disposable income and awareness regarding vehicle maintenance. PVC compounds are used for manufacturing automobile parts such as pipes, seat covers, steering wheels, door panels and instrument panel housings among others. The growing importance of lightweight materials has led manufacturers towards using these materials while manufacturing automobile components; this is further anticipated to augment market growth during the forecast period.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth of this region can be attributed to increasing PVC production capacity in China, India, Thailand, and Indonesia. Furthermore, rising demand for PVC from various end-use industries such as packaging & containers; automotive; building & construction; electrical & electronics is anticipated to propel industry expansion over the coming years.
The Asia Pacific was followed by Europe which accounted for a share of more than 20% in 2017 owing to high product consumption particularly from Germany, U.K., France and Italy among other Eastern European countries that are characterized by cold climate conditions requiring heat insulation materials such as thermal plastics or rubber products made out of polymers including PVC). However despite being major consumers they have been experiencing sluggish growth since 2014 due to economic slowdown coupled with political instability especially after 2016 Brexit vote which resulted into decline in construction spending along with consumer confidence thereby affecting overall industry performance negatively.
Growth Factors:
- Growing demand from construction and infrastructure sectors: PVC resins are extensively used in the construction and infrastructure industries for manufacturing pipes, profiles, sheets, and other products. The growing demand for these products in these sectors is expected to drive the growth of the PVC resin market in the coming years.
- Rising demand from automotive sector: PVC resins are used extensively in the manufacture of automotive parts such as door panels, dashboards, seat covers, etc. The increasing demand for automobiles across the globe is expected to boost the growth of the PVC resin market in future.
- Increasing use of plastics in packaging applications: With stringent government regulations on use of plastics bags and other packaging materials, there is a rising trend towards using plastics instead of traditional materials like paperboard and metal cans.
