Global Polyolefin Market Overview

A polyolefin is a macromolecular material that is odorless, non-porous, and non-polar in nature. It is formed through the polymerization of olefin monomer units. The need for polyolefins such as PP (polypropylene) and PE (polyethylene) is estimated to increase steadily, owing to a wide range of applications. Polyethylene and polypropylene are the most common types of polyolefins used in a broad spectrum of applications across various end-user industries. These industries can range from structural plastics, packaging, consumer goods, and electronics.

The global polyolefins market is expected to witness a 6.49% CAGR, garnering a market valuation of USD 324 billion by 2023. Several factors are contributing to the augmentation of the global polyolefins market over the forecast period. Such factors include the burgeoning growth observed in the packaging industry and the construction industry worldwide. Further, lower economies of scale for manufacturers has enabled a lower cost of polyolefins in the market, driving higher demand for the same. This, in turn, is anticipated to contribute highly to the growth of the global polyolefins market. Growing consumption in the FMCG and consumer goods sector is projected to fuel demand for polyolefins throughout the assessment period. With mushrooming applications of polyolefins in different industries, many growth opportunities are created for market vendors. Prominent market players are expected to invest in expansion projects across the globe, promoting sizeable growth all over the world.
