Transparency Market Research has released a new market report entitled “Polyethylene Wax Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast 2015 - 2023” on to their report store.

Albany, NY -- (SBWire) -- 07/18/2017 --The rapid increase in the shale gas exploration and production activities in North America, primarily in the U.S. and Canada, has significantly incremented the availability of ethylene, the raw material for the manufacturing of polyethylene wax, and provided a strong traction to the market for the same. In addition to that, the demand in the global polyethylene wax market is incrementing as a result of the prosperity of the coating and printing ink industry, although associated environment issues continue to pose challenges for the polyethylene market from attaining its true potential.

As per the estimations of the report, the global polyethylene wag market will expand at a CAGR of 3.7% during the forecast period of 2015 to 2023, reaching a valuation of US$359.1 mn by the end of 2023, up from its evaluated worth of 258.9 mn in 2014. Growing requirement for polyethylene wax in polyvinyl chloride production is another key driver for the polyethylene wax market, wherein the existing vendors will gain new opportunities from the advent of RPPW (recycled pyrolytic cross-linked polyethylene wax), which has shown potential for application in the asphalt industry.

Plastic Additives and Lubricants Segment Flourishing

Application-wise, the global polyethylene wax market is segmented into packaging, candles, wood and firelogs, adhesive and coatings, rubber, cosmetics, plastic additives and lubricants, and others such as laminates, printing inks, and polishes. In 2014, the candles segment accounted for the maximum demand in the global polyethylene wax market, at more than 20%, and is expected to remain a highly profitable application-segment. The same year, adhesive and coatings segment was second most prominent contributor of the demand for polyethylene wax.

However, towards the second half of the forecast period, the segment of plastic additives and lubricants is anticipated to prosper as most profitable. In the near future, the polyehylene wax industry is anticipated to increment its application in road marking thermoplastic paints, PVC stabilizer, PVC pipes, plastic masterbatches manufacturing. Strict regulations pertaining to the emission standards by environmental bodies such as EPA is another factor positively reflecting on PE wax market for solvent borne coatings.
