Product overview
Plastic compounding is a method wherein various materials (polymers and additives) are mixed and melted collected, generally in an extruder, which is afterward pelletized. The material derived through pelleting is later processed into final products (finished or semi-finished).

Market Highlights
Plastic Compounding Market is predicted to project a notable CAGR of 4.63% in 2031

The demand for plastic is rising due to its several industrial uses, such as easy molding and the ability to form the chosen shape. Plastic compounding involves an elaborate process with various stages, such as determining additives ratio, high-speed mixing via twin-screw extruders, melt mixing, and cooling, before final pellet cutting and packaging. There is a varied range of products available, depending on the additives and fillers integrated while processing the polymers.

Plastic Compounding Market: Segments
Polypropylene (PP) segment to grow with the highest CAGR during 2021-2031

Based on Product, Plastic Compounding Market is segmented into PE, PP, TPV, TPO, PVC, PS, PET, PBT, PA, PC, ABS. The Polypropylene (PP) segment reported for the key market share of Plastic Compounding Market. The PP compounds are widely used in automotive applications due to their large impact resistance and serviceability. The economic growth in Asia and Latin American regions has pushed the growth of the automotive sector, both in terms of vehicle sales and domestic production.

Automotive segment to grow with the highest CAGR during 2021-2031

Based on Application Type, Plastic Compounding Market is broadly segmented into Automotive, Optical Media. By Application type, the automotive segment holds the maximum share in Plastic Compounding market share, accounting for 24% of the total revenue in 2020. Increasing incorporation of plastics, as opposed to metals and alloys in automotive components, has been a chief growth-driving aspect for the sector.

Plastic Compounding Market: Market Dynamics
Drivers

Increasing demand in infrastructure development

Plastics demand is growing in the construction segment in floorings, insulation materials, storage tanks, performance safety windows, doors, pipes, and cables. Increasing residential and commercial projects in developing economies is driving infrastructural growth. Further, consumer awareness about attractive interiors is growing the demand for these materials in interior designing. A booming construction industry is expected to complement the plastic compounding market during the forecast years.

Rapid industrialization

Rapid industrialization and increase in disposable income of consumers across the emerging countries such as India and China have driven the demand for automobiles. Rise in production of lightweight vehicles and surge in demand for electric vehicles are some of the chief drivers of this market.

Restraints
Regular consumption

Components such as an increase in pricing of raw materials used in plastic compounding due to fluctuating petrochemical as well as crude oil prices and high substitution potential from its bio-based counterparts are anticipated to hamper the growth of the plastics compounding market. Furthermore, ongoing development in catalyst technologies that is focused on increasing the performance, customization, and yield of PE resins, is expected to provide profitable opportunities in this market.

Effects of COVID19 in the Plastic Compounding Market

The impact of COVID-19 has been seen in multiple parameters in the plastic compounding market. Short-& long-term effects and their impacts on producers and end consumers were also analyzed. During the early spread of the COVID-19 virus, the global manufacturing witnessed a halt due to initial cases being discovered in China. China being the lead exporter of many plastic compounding products observed immediate disruption in manufacturing due to the imposition of stringent lockdowns. The worldwide spread also caused the plummeting demand from major industries, such as automotive and industrial, primarily due to stringent shutdown of manufacturing operations and production facilities.
