MEASA Plastics Growth Opportunities

MEASA Plastics Growth Opportunities

This study presents an assessment of the plastics industry in MEASA in 2021 and evaluates its future prospects. The current size of the plastics industry in the region is assessed by factors such as end-use sector growth, substitution potential, political, socioeconomic, regulatory, environmental, raw material trends, and technology adoption. These factors are classified under drivers and restraints and are used in the forecast analysis. The market analysis also considers the role of digitalization, higher per capita income, demand for lightweighting, and the growth of fast-moving consumer goods and pharmaceutical products.

The study lists the key market participants and the critical competitive factors to achieve organic growth and gain a solid foothold in the market. The companies considered in this study include SABIC, Sadara (Dow/Saudi Aramco), Abu Dhabi Polymers Company (Borouge), Qatar Petrochemical Company (QAPCO), Oman Refineries and Petroleum Industries Company (ORPIC), Equate Petrochemical Company, Reliance Industries, Saudi Ethylene and Polyethylene Company (SEPC), Al Waha Petrochemicals, Qatar Chemicals Company (Q-Chem), Indian Oil Corporation (IOC), Caramel Olefins, Saudi Polyolefins, Advanced Petro Chemicals, SIDPEC, chem, Oriental Petroleum Company (OPC), Safripol, SASOL, Indorama Petrochemicals, HMEL, BPCL, ONGC Petro Additions Limited, and Haldia Petrochemicals.

RESEARCH SCOPE

The study is segmented by the following regions:

South Asia includes India, Bangladesh, and the Rest of South Asia (Pakistan, Nepal, and Sri Lanka)
Middle East includes Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates (UAE), Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, and the Rest of the Middle East (Bahrain, Turkey, Israel, and Jordan)
Africa includes South Africa, Nigeria, Egypt, and the Rest of Africa (51 countries).
It is further segmented by plastic types, such as linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), low-density polyethylene (LDPE), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), polypropylene (PP), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polystyrene (PS), and polyethylene terephthalate (PET)) and by end-use applications (Packaging, Construction, Automotive, Consumer Goods, and Others).

The study provides unit shipment and revenue forecasts for each segment from 2018 to 2028. The study assesses volume in kilo tons (KT) and revenue in billion US dollars (USD). At the sub-segment level, the analysis focuses on the major regions and competitive environments. Competitive structure and market share data are given at the overall level. The study also provides a 7-year forecast based on the expected compound average growth rate, wherein the base year is 2021, and the forecast period ends at 2028.
