Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) :
The increasing demand for construction activities is a major factor that is driving the growth of the building and construction plastics market. The dire need for replacing debilitated structures is a major concern worldwide. Rising investments in public and private sectors, coupled with the growing population, are driving the demand for construction activities. The usage of construction plastics provides durability, weather resistance, and reduction in overall weight. Many economies like India, Vietnam, etc. are highly dependent on plastic products, and this reliance is further fueling the demand for building and construction plastics.
Globally, the ever-increasing use of plastics and dependency are escalating the growth of the market. However, the rising concern over plastic waste on a global scale is limiting the market growth in the upcoming years. China and Malaysia have banned imports of plastic waste from reducing the effect of plastic pollution. The non-biodegradable nature of plastic coupled with strict regulations levied by the administration is challenging the growth of the market.
The Polyvinyl chloride segment is the largest, as well as the fastest-growing segment in building and construction plastic with around 89.7% market share in 2018. Polyvinyl chloride is a kind of plastic that is pliable at a certain elevated temperature and solidifies upon cooling. The polymer chain is linked by intermolecular forces, which weaken by the increasing temperatures and yielding a sticky residue. The Polyvinyl chloride segment is majorly driven by the extensive use of Polyvinyl chlorides in a variety of applications in the construction sector, like flooring, piping, windows, and panels, etc. The ability of Polyvinyl chlorides to be reshaped is increasing the demand for Polyvinyl chlorides in the region. The need for eco-friendly and recyclable plastic is another factor that is fueling the uptake of Polyvinyl chlorides.
Geographically, Asia Pacific had been the largest market with a market share of 50.11% in terms of revenue by 2018. An increased government and private spending on the construction sector is helping the industry to stride into the peak position in the world. For the past half-decade, even the uncertain real estate industry is showing potential, and at present, it accounts for around 75% of the overall construction in the worldwide construction industry. In the Asia Pacific region, the population boom, along with the mounting demand for plastic materials attributes to the dominance of the region in the market. Other factors driving the growth of the market include rising demand for plastics for roofing & cladding applications and green building practices in this region. Many key players are producing innovative products to reduce plastic waste and curb energy costs, which is supplementing the growth of the market in the Asia Pacific region. Additionally, the untapped construction plastics market in Vietnam is also contributing to the growth of the market.
