The Americas plastic compounding market is expected to
reach USD 19.11 billion by 2024, according to a new report by Grand View
Research, Inc. The shift in trend towards lightweight composites to lower
vehicular weight and thereby foster fuel savings & lower carbon emission
levels are anticipated to drive demand.
Increasing
demand from major end-use industries such as automotive, electrical &
electronics, packaging, construction and consumer goods is expected to remain a
key driving factor for market growth. Plastics compounds are rapidly replacing
conventional materials such as wood, glass, and metals in various applications
on account of their flexibility, lubricity and increased strength &
stiffness.
Favorable
federal regulations by agencies such as National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHSTA) and California Air Resources Board (CARB) regarding
carbon emissions along with the U.S. EPA initiatives to develop plastics
compounds in lightweight & fuel-efficient cars is likely to augment
regional market growth.
Polyethylene
terephthalate (PET) is expected to be the fastest growing product segment owing
to increasing usage in end-use industries such as packaging and electrical
& electronics. Packaging is a dominant application market where PET
compounds are utilized in large quantities for the production of bottles,
particularly carbonated beverages and nutritional drinks.
