HDPE Market Estimated to Exceed US$ 81.8 Billion Globally By 2024: IMARC Group

As per the recent report by IMARC Group, titled “High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2019-2024”, the global high-density polyethylene market reached a value of US$ 65.4 Billion in 2018. High density polyethylene (HDPE) refers to one of the most durable and versatile thermoplastics which is manufactured by applying intense heat to petroleum under controlled conditions. The high tensile strength and light weight of HDPE adds to its immense popularity making it ideal for manufacturing various kinds of containers and materials. Additionally, HDPE can withstand environmental stresses such as high-temperature treatment and does not create any harmful emissions during its manufacturing or application. Some of the other advantages of HDPE include longer lifespan, moderate price point, resistance to corrosion, chemicals, climate changes, and ease of handling, installing and transportation.

Market Trends:

As a result of growing environmental concerns, consumers are increasingly being cautious about the products they purchase and thus, are shifting towards eco-friendly options like HDPE products. In the packaging industry, HDPE finds application in the production of plastic bags, containers, bottles, and caps and closures which are further used in the food and beverage sector. Along with this, HDPE films are employed for packing food on account of their low odor and excellent chemical resistance. A rise in the demand for packaged food due to hectic lifestyles and inflating disposable incomes of the consumers has provided a thrust to the growth of the market across the globe. In the non-food industry, HDPE is used in the manufacturing of containers for soaps, shampoos, detergents, conditioners, bleaches and creams so as to protect the product from spilling as well as various environmental factors. Looking forward, the market is projected to reach a value of US$ 81.8 Billion by 2024, expanding at a CAGR of 3.8% during 2019-2024.
