SBR and ABS Industries to Benefit from Increased Automotive Production in the BRIC Countries

SBR and ABS Industries to Benefit from Increased Automotive Production in the BRIC Countries

Summary

The automotive sector was one of the worst affected sectors during the global economic slowdown in 2008-2009, but it recovered quickly in 2010 due to strong demand from the BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India and China) countries. The automotive sector in the BRIC countries performed better than other countries in 2010, leading to an increased demand for polymers such as Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR) and Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS). Demand for these polymers in the BRIC countries reached their pre-recession level due to the increased automotive production in the BRIC countries.
