Growing Construction Industry to Drive Demand for Building and Construction Plastics

According to a TMR analyst, "The key end-use industry for building and construction plastic is the construction industry." Over the past few years, the building and construction sector is rising at a significant rate owing to the increasing world population. According to a recent survey, the world population is expected to reach 8,108 million by 2025. As a result, the need for building and construction plastics is likely to rise due to the rise in construction activities.

Plastic materials such as polyurethanes, PVC, thermoplastics, acrylics, and composites have applications in building and construction. These materials are employed in doors and windows, fittings, and pipes and ducts. The demand for building and construction plastic is significantly high in Asia Pacific owing to the growing urbanization in the region. Thus, the growing construction industry is anticipated to drive the growth of the global building and construction plastic market in the upcoming years.

Price Volatility of Crude Oil to Dampen Growth of Building and Construction Plastics Industry

Crude oil is an essential component in the plastics manufacturing market. Petroleum product derivatives are used in the formulation of various types of plastics such as polyethylene, poly vinyl chloride, polypropylene, polyurethane, and polystyrene. As a result, manufacturers of plastic have to acquire large quantities of crude oil for the production process. Due to the depleting petroleum reserves, the price of crude oil and other petroleum products is continuously fluctuating. Moreover, the fluctuating prices in oil commodities has also led to an increase in the prices of plastic products. As the building and construction industry uses a substantial amount of plastics produced from petroleum derivatives, the fluctuation in the price of crude oil is likely to impede the production of building and construction plastics.

Increasing Demand for Green Building to Provide Lucrative Opportunities to Manufacturers

Due to increase in number of respiratory diseases occurring from poor quality constructions, the demand for green buildings has substantially increased over the years. The conventional plastic materials used in buildings emit VOCs which are considered to have a negative impact on human health. As a result, manufacturers of building and construction plastic are focusing on the production of environment and health friendly plastics to meet the requirements of consumers. Green materials are mixed with conventional plastics to produce green plastics that will help in lowering the VOC content. Thus, plastic manufacturers can capitalize on the emergence of green building plastic materials.
