Rubber: United States
This report forecasts to 2022 and 2026 US rubber demand and synthetic rubber shipments in nominal US dollars at the manufacturer level. Total demand is segmented by type in terms of: styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR); polybutadiene (BR); natural rubber; chloroprene rubber (CR); isobutylene isoprene, or butyl, rubber (IIR); isoprene rubber (IR); and nitrile rubber (NBR); ethylene-propylene diene monomer (EPDM); and other synthetic rubbers such as acrylic and fluoroelastomers.
To illustrate historical trends, total demand, total shipments, the various segments, and trade are provided in annual series from 2011 to 2021.
The scope of this report is defined as thermoset elastomers and excludes thermoplastic elastomers (e.g., thermoplastic polyurethanes) as well as silicone elastomers. Reclaimed rubber is also excluded. Rubber demand represents the raw elastomers, before the compounding stage. Re-exports of rubber are excluded from demand and trade figures.
Key macroeconomic indicators are also provided with quantified trends. Other various topics, including profiles of pertinent leading companies, are covered in this report. A full outline of report items by page is available in the Table of Contents.
