Dublin, July 01, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – The “Polypropylene Compounds Market – Growth, Trends, Impact of COVID-19, and Forecast (2021 – 2026)” the report was added to ResearchAndMarkets.com offer.

The polypropylene compounds market is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 7.2% globally during the forecast period. Polypropylene compounds are thermoplastic resins formed by combining one or more base polyolefins with various materials, such as impact modifiers, fillers and reinforcements, pigments and additives. The growing demand for consumer electronics has been the driving force behind the growth of the market.

However, the fluctuation of raw materials and the coronavirus epidemic across the world are likely to hamper the growth of the studied market.

The research and development of environmentally friendly polypropylene compounds is expected to provide opportunities for the polypropylene compounds market over the next five years.

The automotive industry is the most dominant end-user segment for the market studied. The Asia-Pacific region has dominated the world with increasing consumption from countries like China and India.

Key market trends

The automotive industry will dominate the market

• The automotive industry is the dominant segment due to the ever increasing demand for polypropylene resin as a replacement for metal and electronic plastics in automotive manufacturing.
• The growing demand for high strength lightweight products in the automotive industry is expected to accelerate the growth of the target market in order to reduce vehicle weight and improve fuel efficiency.
• The low density of PP compounds increases automotive fuel economy and lowers the overall cost of raw materials. The great versatility of polypropylene has led to the development of creative designs that improve passenger safety and comfort. It is these aspects that are driving the demand for PP compounds.
• The auto industry has seen a drop in production in countries like the United States, China, and Germany since 2018, which is expected to lead to lower consumption of polypropylene compound. However, the auto industry is expected to witness a recovery in production from 2021.
• All of the aforementioned factors are expected to drive the polypropylene compounds market during the forecast period.

The Asia-Pacific region will dominate the market

• Due to the strong demand from the automotive and consumer electronics industry, especially in emerging countries such as India and China, the Asia-Pacific market is expected to be the most important market and fastest growing during the forecast period.
• The flexible packaging industry in the Asia-Pacific region is growing at a faster rate due to its advantages, such as easy handling, portable packaging, and lightness.
• Easy access to raw materials, well-developed infrastructure, and a skilled and cheap labor force have prompted major international automakers to invest in the Asia-Pacific region. Hence, all these factors are expected to drive the polypropylene compounds market in Asia-Pacific region.
• The region’s electronics market is also growing at a steady pace. In addition, with companies actively investing in the region’s electronics industry, demand is expected to continue to increase, thereby increasing the use of polypropylene in the Asia-Pacific region.
• Market demand for electric cars and policies under the Clean Energy Ministerial (CEM), such as the electric vehicle initiative and growing enthusiasm for electric vehicles, are expected to drive consumption of polypropylene compounds. in a close future.
• Hence, all these market trends are expected to drive the polypropylene compounds market demand in the region during the forecast period.
