Market Overview:
The global thermoplastic connectors 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 thermoplastic connectors in automotive, power & utility, industrial, and telecommunication applications. Additionally, the growing demand for lightweight and durable connectors is also contributing to the growth of this market. Based on type, the polycarbonate plastic segment is expected to lead the global thermoplastic connectors market during the forecast period. This segment is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6% from 2018 to 2030 due to its high strength-to-weight ratio and resistance against heat and chemicals.
Product Definition:
Thermoplastic connectors are used to join two or more thermoplastic parts together. They are important because they provide a way to connect thermoplastic parts without using adhesives, which can be difficult to remove if the parts need to be separated later.
Polycarbonate Plastic:
Polycarbonate plastic is a thermoplastic polymer, which has applications in various industries such as automotive & transportation, consumer goods and electronics. It can be used as substitutes for metals or glass in many applications due to properties such as high chemical resistance and low weight. Polycarbonate plastics are also referred to as PC or PCTP (polycarbonate terpolymer).
ABS Plastic:
ABS is Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene, a type of plastic. ABS is produced using styrene and acrylonitrile. It has high resistance to chemicals such as solvents, acids, and bases; it also has good impact strength and excellent electrical properties.
It can be extruded or injection molded; the choice of method depends on the final desired shape & size of the product along with other factors such as complexity & cost involved in each process respectively.
Application Insights:
The automotive segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2016 and is projected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. Thermoplastic connectors are used in various automotive applications including powertrain, lighting, HVAC (heating, ventilation & cooling), electronic stability control modules and fuel tanks. The rising importance of energy efficiency coupled with growing demand for lightweight vehicles is expected to drive the product demand over the forecast period.
The industrial segment accounted for a significant revenue share in 2016 owing to increasing use of TPCs as an alternative solution compared to metal fasteners on account of their environmental friendliness along with ease of assembly process involved. In addition, they offer superior chemical resistance which makes them suitable for harsh industrial environments including oil & gas processing plants and chemical storage facilities among others.
Regional Analysis:
The market in North America is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to the increasing demand for high performance and efficient thermoplastic connectors. The region accounted for a revenue share of more than 30% in 2017, which can be attributed to the presence of major automotive manufacturers such as Ford Motors Co., General Motors Company, and Tesla Inc. In addition, rising investments by companies such as Boeing are anticipated to drive product demand further.
Asia Pacific is projected to emerge as one of the fastest-growing regions with a CAGR exceeding 6% during the forecast period due its rapid industrialization along with growing population and consumer base mainly in China and India. The manufacturing sector has been witnessing an upsurge across these countries on account of easy access to energy resources that have triggered an increase in production activities within various industries including aerospace & defense, power & utility, transportation etc., thereby driving product consumption across this region over the next eight years.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from the automotive industry for lightweight and durable connectors
- Growing popularity of thermoplastic connectors in medical devices and appliances
- Rising demand for high-performance thermoplastic connectors in electronics and telecommunications industries
- Proliferation of 3D printing technology that helps reduce manufacturing time and cost of thermoplastic connectors
- Increasing adoption of smart technologies in automobiles, consumer electronics, and industrial applications
