The automotive industry to remain dominant during the forecast period

  • Polyamides are high-performance plastics that can withstand high temperatures and corrosive environments. Due to their non-adhesive and low friction properties, they are suitable for applications in various end-user industries like aerospace, electronics, automotive, and telecommunications. Asia-Pacific accounted for 51% of the global consumption of polyamides in 2022, making it the largest consumer of polyamides in the world.
  • The automotive industry holds the largest market share, accounting for 33% of the region's total polyamide consumption in 2022. China's automotive industry was the largest consumer of polyamides in the region in 2022. China is an emerging exporter of small- and medium-sized vehicles, with companies like Geely, Chery, and BYD setting up manufacturing plants to penetrate developing vehicle markets abroad. This is increasing the production of vehicles and the application of polyamides in the country. Vehicle production in the country is expected to reach 64.7 million units in 2029 compared to 46.6 million units in 2022.
  • The packaging industry is expected to be the fastest-growing industry in terms of consumption of polyamides. It is predicted to register a CAGR of 8.22%, by value, during the forecast period [2023-2029]. Trends such as technology-enabled packaging, personalized packaging, and sustainable and environmentally friendly product-driven packaging, which aims to reduce carbon footprint, are expected to drive future demand for food and retail packaging. The packaging industry in countries like South Korea and China is among the fastest-growing in terms of polyamide consumption. These countries are projected to register CAGRs of 10.30% and 9.24%, respectively, by value, during the forecast period.

China to remain as a market leader in the region

  • The Asia-Pacific region is the largest consumer of polyamides globally, holding a share of over 50.86% in 2022. In this region, polyamides are used extensively in a variety of applications, including electrical and electronics, automotive, consumer goods, and food packaging industries.
  • In 2019, due to geopolitical tensions, global trade saw a minor decline. This decline was particularly pronounced in Malaysia, resulting in the country's first full-year drop in a decade. Consequently, the demand for polyamides in the country fell by 10.09% compared to 2018, whereas the regional demand experienced a Y-o-Y decrease of 2.53%. In 2020, various restrictive factors, such as worker unavailability and raw material shortages resulting from operational and trade restrictions during the pandemic, severely impacted various end-user industries. This factor, in turn, negatively affected the polyamide demand in the region.
  • However, in 2021, as restrictions eased, polyamide demand returned to pre-pandemic levels. This resurgence was primarily driven by the rapid growth in industrial activities in countries like Australia and Malaysia. This growth trend is expected to continue throughout the forecast period, with China expected to witness the highest growth in polyamide demand among all countries. Overall, polyamide demand from the Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to register a CAGR of 4.81% in terms of volume during the forecast period.

Colorants & Pigments Colorants & Pigments are additives used to change the color of the plastic. They can be a powder or a resin/color premix.
Composite material A composite material is a material that is produced from two or more constituent materials. These constituent materials have dissimilar chemical or physical properties and are merged to create a material with properties unlike the individual elements.
Degree of Polymerization (DP) The number of monomeric units in a macromolecule, polymer, or oligomer molecule is referred to as the degree of polymerization or DP. Plastics with useful physical properties often have DPs in the thousands.
Dispersion To create a suspension or solution of material in another substance, fine, agglomerated solid particles of one substance are dispersed in a liquid or another substance to form a dispersion.
Fiberglass Fiberglass-reinforced plastic is a material made up of glass fibers embedded in a resin matrix. These materials have high tensile and impact strength. Handrails and platforms are two examples of lightweight structural applications that use standard fiberglass.
Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) Fiber-reinforced polymer is a composite material made of a polymer matrix reinforced with fibers. The fibers are usually glass, carbon, aramid, or basalt.
Flake This is a dry, peeled-off piece, usually with an uneven surface, and is the base of cellulosic plastics.
Fluoropolymers This is a fluorocarbon-based polymer with multiple carbon-fluorine bonds. It is characterized by high resistance to solvents, acids, and bases. These materials are tough yet easy to machine. Some of the popular fluoropolymers are PTFE, ETFE, PVDF, PVF, etc.
Kevlar Kevlar is the commonly referred name for aramid fiber, which was initially a Dupont brand for aramid fiber. Any group of lightweight, heat-resistant, solid, synthetic, aromatic polyamide materials that are fashioned into fibers, filaments, or sheets is called aramid fiber.
