Low Density Polyethylene Market projected to increase at a CAGR of 4.5% during the projected period of 2022-2029
Future Market Insights (FMI) recently published a revised market research report on the low density polyethylene (LDPE) that analyzes the low density polyethylene market and provides critical insights for the forecast period of 2019-2029. The global low density polyethylene market is likely to be valued at US$ 58,782.2 Mn in 2019 and is projected to increase at a CAGR of 4.5% during the projected period of 2022-2029.
As per the key findings of the report, the global low density
polyethylene market is expected to witness considerable growth in the coming
years due to the steady increase in the adoption of low density polyethylene in
various automotive applications such as electrical components, upholstery,
liquid reservoirs, etc.
Besides, stringent government regulations regarding reducing vehicular
emissions are forcing manufacturers to shift towards lightweight plastics for
various applications. With the automotive industry expanding at a high growth
rate, more demand for low density polyethylene is expected in the future.
High Demand for LDPE from Construction and Retail Industries
High usage of low density polyethylene is seen in the construction
industry. With new construction projects coming up everywhere, the market
demand for basic household products is also expected to rise. Most of these products
are made by processing low density polyethylene (LDPE) through injection and
extrusion moulding, e.g., pipes, trays, general purpose containers, toys and
various bathroom, and kitchen products. Moreover, in the retail industry, more
focus is on the packaging of products.
In 2014, total global retail sales were valued at ~US$ 20 Trn, which are
expected to reach ~US$ 30.0 Trn – US$ 30.5 Trn by 2020 at a CAGR of ~ 6%. Low
density polyethylene finds application in packaging and protective packaging of
innumerable products sold in retail outlets. This, in turn, adds value to the
global low density polyethylene market. Also, due to the rise in e-commerce,
more people are buying products online. In 2014, the global e-commerce retail
market was valued at ~US$ 1.5 Trn, which is expected to reach US$ 2.9-3.0 Trn
by 2020.
In online business, safe delivery of commodities to customers is a
critical concern for sellers. More attention is given on packaging of products
bought through e-commerce or online sources, as compared to products sold
through other channels. This factor is further driving the demand for low
density polyethylene worldwide.
Manufacturers Focus on Improved Quality of LDPE Grade and Lowered
Production Costs
The global low density polyethylene market is considered to be a
significantly consolidated one.The report highlights some of the prominent
market players, who have established themselves as leaders in the global low
density polyethylene LDPE market. Such market participants are focusing on expansion
of business through mergers, acquisitions, and joint ventures. A few examples
