Market Dynamics
Driver: The rising popularity of thermoplastics against conventional materials:
The increasing awareness regarding the advantages of polycarbonate among manufacturers is the driving factor of the market growth. The easy availability & cost-benefit are increasingly making plastics a suitable alternative to traditional materials, including stainless steel, glass, wood, and ceramics. Further, the ever-increasing population worldwide and the growing disposable income propel market growth. Moreover, the rising demand for plastics and environment-friendly products is also helping to boost the market growth.
Restraint: The fluctuations in the cost of raw materials:
The volatile price of the raw materials used to make polycarbonate is restraining the market growth. The primary raw material utilized in the production of polycarbonate is crude oil. Most raw materials used for making polycarbonate sheets are petroleum-based, making them sensitive to commodity price volatility. Therefore, price-sensitive consumers and import threats impact polycarbonate sheet suppliers. Further, the environmental effects of polycarbonate sheets and the BPA used in food packaging and medical applications hamper the market growth. Also, high costs related to different metals, safety issues, and product durability are restraining the market growth. Moreover, the rising environmental concerns about the difficulty of recycling these polymers, which can harm terrestrial and aquatic species, hamper the market growth during the forecast period.
Opportunity: The increasingly investing in infrastructure development:
The rising investment by key manufacturers in developing public infrastructure is an opportunity factor for market growth. Further, expanding the mass transit systems and increasing demand for customer goods are also helping boost market growth. Moreover, the advancements in technologies like virtual reality (VR) devices, wearables, augmented reality (AR) devices, sensors, and drones are driving market growth during the forecast period. Apart from this, the rising adoption and usage of plastic extruded sheets in the construction and automotive industries are also helping to stimulate market growth.
