“Growing demand for lightweight automotive materials”
The automotive industry's adoption of compounded plastics is driven by their exceptional serviceability and high-impact resistance. With the increasing trend of using plastics instead of metal and alloys in automotive components, the automotive segment occupies a significant share of the plastics compounding market. Materials like Polypropylene (PP) are widely used due to their lightweight nature, resulting in reduced vehicle weight, lower carbon emissions, and improved energy efficiency and performance.
What restraints the growth of the plastic compounding market?
“Instability in the prices of raw materials”
The fluctuating prices of petrochemicals and crude oil pose a significant challenge to the plastic compounding market. As the majority of raw materials used in plastic compounding are derived from petrochemicals or crude oil, the volatility in prices directly impacts production costs and profit margins. This hampers the growth of the market, as manufacturers face difficulties in maintaining stable pricing and profitability in the face of fluctuating input costs.
