On the basis of type, mechanical method is projected to be the fastest growing segment duringthe forecast period from 2018to 2030. This can be attributed tobethe high adoption rateof mechanicalmethods due toytheir low costand easy availability across regions.
Product Definition:
Polyethylene Foamed Plastics is a type of plastic that is made up of small air bubbles. This makes the plastic lightweight and flexible. Polyethylene Foamed Plastics can be used for a variety of things, such as packaging materials, insulation, and automotive parts.
Mechanical Method:
Mechanical methods are used to process thermoplastic materials such as polyethylene, polypropylene and styrene-butadiene rubber. These mechanical methods include extrusion, injection molding, calendaring and vacuum forming among others.
Extrusion is the most widely used mechanical method for processing PEF.
Physical Method:
Physical method is a process to produce polyethylene foam by mechanical or thermal means. It includes compressing the raw material and forcing gases inside the polymer matrix. The most common physical methods used for producing PEF include bulk-polymerization, granular-polymerization, emulsion-polymerization and suspension-polymerization.
Application Insights:
The agriculture application segment led the global polyethylene foamed plastics market in 2017 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of XX% over the forecast period. Polyethylene foam is used for insulation in cold storage warehouses, greenhouses, and freezers as it provides thermal resistance against extreme temperatures which are expected to rise over the coming years owing to climate change. Moreover, it helps reduce heat transfer from the external environment through conduction and convection radiation which positively impacts crop growth. These factors are anticipated to drive demand for PEFPCs in this application segment over the coming years.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific was the leading revenue contributor in the global polyethylene foamed plastics market and accounted for over 45% of the total market share in 2016. The region is also anticipated to be one of the fastest-growing markets for polyethylene foamed plastics during the forecast period. This can be attributed to increasing automotive production and sales, rapid urbanization, growing consumer electronics industry, expanding agriculture sector across emerging economies such as China and India.
The Asia Pacific economy has been witnessing strong growth since 2009 after a deep recession from 2007 to 2009.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from end-use industries such as construction, automotive and packaging
- Rising disposable income of consumers in developing countries
- Technological advancements in manufacturing process of polyethylene foamed plastics
- Growing environmental concerns over the use of traditional materials such as wood, metal and glass
- Stringent government regulations for energy conservation
