“Polypropylene foams market to register a CAGR of 5.78% from 2016 to 2021”

The polypropylene foams market is projected to reach USD 1.27 billion by 2021, at a CAGR of 5.78% from 2016 to 2021. The optimum performance of polypropylene foam which is light in weight and durable, reusable and recyclable, has a growing demand in emerging regions, and is eco-friendly and sustainable, is expected to drive the polypropylene foams market during the next five years. The major restraining factors in the polypropylene foams market are the high price of polypropylene foams, and the lower awareness about the product.

“Expanded polypropylene foams is the major type driving the polypropylene foams market”

Expanded polypropylene foams have good low temperature performance and good chemical resistance. These types of foams are available in various grades, such as, low density, high density, and porous PP. The demand for EPP foams is largely backed by developments in the automobile, packaging, HVAC, and consumer products industries.

“Rising demand in Asia-Pacific is the major driver of the polypropylene foams market“

The Asia-Pacific region is the fastest-growing segment of the polypropylene foams market. The increase in middle-class population, rising disposable incomes, and demand from end-use industries are expected to drive the market in the region.

The report, “Polypropylene Catalysts Market by Type (Ziegler–Natta, Metallocene, and Co-Catalyst systems), by PP Manufacturing Process (Solvent, Bulk Slurry, and Gas phase) - Global trends & forecasts to 2019 ” defines and segments the polypropylene catalyst market with an analysis and forecast for types, and applications by volume as well as value.

Europe, North America, and Asia-Pacific dominated the polypropylene catalyst market in 2013 and accounted for over 60% of the market, by volume and value. Country-wise, the U.S. is the top consumer of polypropylene catalyst products globally. Companies like Univation Inc. and Lyondell Basel are two of the biggest players in the country. Germany is the second-largest polypropylene catalyst consumer in the world. The growth in the PP catalyst industry is anticipated to come from advanced metallocene and single site catalysts.

Key Players in Polypropylene Catalysts Market :

  • kzoNobel N.V (The Netherlands)
  • BASF SE (Germany)
  • Lyondell Basell (The Netherlands)
  • Univation Inc. (U.S.)
  • Hoechst Gmbh (Germany)
  • Toho Tenax (Japan)
  • Mitsubishi Chemicals (Japan) Etc..

Ziegler Natta catalysts took the topmost position in the polypropylene catalyst market with around 80% market share by value in 2014. Ziegler-Natta catalysts have propelled the industry forward by making possible the inexpensive and easily controlled production of polypropylene. Today, more than half of the total polypropylene produced worldwide are  with Ziegler-Natta technology. Metallocene catalysts can help the producers refine, even design, the structure of polymers. Although based on transition metals such as titanium and zirconium, similar to Ziegler-Natta catalysts, metallocenes differ in that they have a well-defined single catalytic sites and well-understood molecular structures.
