Market Overview:
The global wood plastic composite (WPC) products market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for WPC products from various end-use applications, such as marine, urban landscape, architectural design, and others. In terms of type, decking is expected to hold a major share of the global WPC products market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to its growing popularity among consumers due to its durability and low maintenance requirements.
Product Definition:
Wood plastic composites (WPCs) are composite materials made of wood fiber/wood flour and thermoplastic(s). The most common thermoplastics used in WPC formulations are polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Additives such as colorants, coupling agents, stabilizers, and reinforcing agents may also be included.
Decking:
Decking is a process of applying deck coating or deck stain to the wood surface. It is also known as as varnishing, which involves the application of several coats of stain in order to protect the wood from moisture and UV rays. The product can be applied by various methods including brush, sprayer, roller or with lumbar; however it's primarily done by sprayers due to ease and convenience associated with it.
Cladding (fa§ade):
WPC products are manufactured using wood flour, plastic resins and additives. The end product is used in various applications such as decking & siding, roofing, cladding & exterior walls of residential and commercial buildings. Cladding is a protective covering that protects the interior of a building from harsh weather conditions such as wind & rain along with providing an aesthetic appeal to the structure.
Application Insights:
The architectural design segment dominated the global wood plastic composite (WPC) products market, accounting for a revenue share of over 30.0% in 2017. The product is widely used in residential and non-residential architectural applications owing to its lightweight and cost-effectiveness compared to traditional materials such as steel and concrete. In addition, it helps achieve better acoustic insulation than other conventional building materials.
The marine application segment accounted for a significant revenue share of 19.4% in 2017 on account of rising demand from the shipping industry across the globe due to its lightweight characteristics that reduce vessel weight thereby increasing fuel efficiency along with reducing emissions significantly below waterline hulls which aids ships maneuverability at high speeds while saving considerable amounts on fuel costs annually as well as reducing CO2 emissions by around 20%.
Regional Analysis:
Europe dominated the global market in terms of revenue with a share of over 30% in 2017. The region is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to rising demand for green buildings and infrastructure coupled with stringent regulations regarding energy efficiency.
Asia Pacific is projected to be the fastest-growing regional market from 2018 to 2030, registering a CAGR of XX%. This can be attributed primarily to rapid urbanization and increasing disposable income levels in emerging economies such as China, India, Indonesia, Vietnam among others. Moreover, supportive government policies aimed at promoting investments through tax benefits are anticipated favorably impact industry expansion over the coming years.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from construction and automotive industries:
- Rising awareness about environment-friendly products:
