The global polyethylene market is projected to register a substantial CAGR during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of the market is attributed to the rising demand for packaged goods in emerging economies.
Polyethylene is manufactured from polymerization of ethylene and exhibits properties such as flexibility, thermal and electrical insulation, and chemical and thermal resistivity. Polyethylene is one of the basic chemical materials used in everyday life. The polymer is light in weight, easy to manufacture, and is availed easily. This has proliferated the applications of polyethylene in various industries such as packaging and construction.
The thermoplastic polymer offers high ductility and impact strength. It is extensively used for the manufacturing of shopping bags, food wraps, detergent bottles, and automobile fuel tanks. The recent technological advancements in the market has led to manufacturing of polyethylene from feedstock derived through unconventional sources such as coal, shale gas, and bio-based materials. This factor is expected to ensure raw material availability during the forecast period.
Market Drivers, Restraints, Trends, and Opportunities
- Easy availability and inexpensive nature of polyethylene are expected to spur the market growth during the forecast period.
- Implementation of stringent environmental protection regulations and growing awareness regarding negative impact of plastic are projected to restrain the market growth in the projected timeline.
- Increasing investment in the development of bio-based and bio-degradable polyethylene is expected to open new market avenues for the polyethylene market.
- Technological advancements in the manufacturing of polyethylene to enhance its performance can create various growth opportunities for industry participants during the forecast period.
- The emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic worldwide is hampering the market growth owing to the decreasing demand for polyethylene in consumer goods, electrical & electronics and automotive industries. Moreover, reducing price of crude oil is disrupting the supply chain activities.
- Increasing demand for polyethylene in the medical equipment industry for the production of personal protection equipment (PPE), sampling containers, curtains and saline bottles, is expected to boost the market growth.

Polyethylene Market Segment Insights
High-density Polyethylene (HDPE) segment to represent a considerable market share.
On the basis of grades, the market is bifurcated into ultra-low-molecular-weight polyethylene (ULMWPE), high-density cross-linked polyethylene (HDXLPE), ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), high-molecular-weight polyethylene (HMWPE), chlorinated polyethylene (CPE), cross-linked polyethylene (PEX), low-density polyethylene (LDPE), linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), very-low-density polyethylene (VLDPE), medium-density polyethylene (MDPE), and high-density polyethylene (HDPE).
The high-density polyethylene (HDPE) segment is expected to represent a considerable market share during the forecast period. Low manufacturing cost, high strength to density ratio, and high temperature resistance are the key factors that are expected to boost the grade demand in the coming years. The physical properties of HDPE depend upon the process of molding used during the manufacturing process. HDPE is highly resistant to a wide range of solvents and can be used to product products such as ballistic plates, bottle caps, boats, chemical resistant piping, and food storage containers.
The low-density polyethylene (LDPE) segment is projected to expand at a healthy CAGR during the forecast period. LDPE is extensively used in packaging owing to its properties such as lightweight, flexibility, softness, and chemical resistance. Increasing demand for lightweight packaging in industries such as electronics, healthcare and food & beverages is projected to fuel the LDPE segment growth during the forecast period.
Packaging segment to constitute a significant market share.
Based on applications, the market is segmented into packaging and toys, cable coverings, buckets, lids, containers bottles, and films & membrane manufacture. The packaging segment is expected to constitute a significant market share during the forecast period.
