The Asia Pacific polyvinyl chloride (PVC) market size was USD XX Billion in 2022 and is likely to reach USD XX Billion by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 4.5% during 2023–2031. The growth of the market is attributed to the rising use of PVC in the construction industry.
PVC is a synthetic resin, produced from the polymerization of the vinyl chloride. It is the third most widely produced synthetic plastic polymer. The synthetic resin is classified as thermoplastic resins and thermosetting resins.
PVC exhibits high tensile strength and flame resistant, and eases the processing and blending. This results its usage in numerous end-user industries such as automotive, electrical & electronics, building & construction, packaging, and footwear.
Vinyl monomer is manufactured from ethylene and chlorine. Monomers are converted to polymer by catalytic action, while polymer is compounded by additives, and compounded PVC is used to produce finished products. Usage of high-performance plastics to reduce the vehicle weight and enhance the fuel economy is driving the consumption of PVC.
Growing demand from the construction industry owing to rapid urbanization is expected to propel the market growth.
Rising application of PVC in the healthcare industry is anticipated to spur the growth of the market.
Hazardous impact of PVC on environment can restrain the market growth.
Expanding use of electric vehicles and increasing PVC recycling are expected to create lucrative opportunities in the projected timeline.
