Global Elastomers Market 2016-2018 & 2026 - Focus on Automotive, Consumer Goods, Healthcare, Construction and Oil & Gas Industries - ResearchAndMarkets.com
The "Global
Elastomers Market Size, Market Share, Application Analysis, Regional
Outlook, Growth Trends, Key Players, Competitive Strategies and
Forecasts, 2018 To 2026" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's
offering.
The global elastomers market was valued at US$ 68.52 Bn in 2017,
expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.1% from 2018 to 2026.
The demand for elastomers driven by rising application of elastomers in
various end-use industries such as automotive, consumer goods,
healthcare, construction, oil & gas and various others.
The growing automotive sector is one of the key factors driving the
demand for elastomers at present. Elastomers are widely used in several
automotive applications such as automotive tires, radiator hoses, and
bumper/fascia among others. Global demand for automotive tires is
expected to maintain a CAGR of approximately 4.8% annually to reach 3.76
Bn units till 2021. Asia Pacific captured approximately 40% of the
market for automotive tires in 2017, due to the high number of passenger
vehicles sold in the region, especially in the densely populated
countries such as India and China.
Further, the rapid growth of the footwear & sports apparel industry is
another key factor driving the demand for elastomers. Thermoplastic
elastomers find wide application in the manufacturing of footwear.
Further, elastomers are also used for manufacturing shoe soles. Global
market for footwear sole materials expected to cross the US$ 22 Bn mark
by the end of 2026. Rubber is one of the key materials that are used for
manufacturing footwear soles. Moreover, the robust growth of the
footwear industry has led the major companies operating in the
elastomers industry to focus extensively on research & development
activities to bring out new products that would cater to the end-use
industries.
For instance, in August 2018, BASF S.E. launched an advanced grade of
thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) that will enhance the production of
decorative shoe parts and shoe shanks in high performance shoes while
maintaining exceptional mechanical properties such as UV resistance. The
new material also attuned with automation, thereby allowing the parts to
be removed easily from the mold while allowing greater design freedom of
the decorative parts.
