Injection Molded Plastic Market Set to Reach USD 296 billion by 2024


The global Injection Molded Plastic Market was valued at around USD 199.9 billion in 2015. It is expected to grow at a CAGR of approximately 5% during the forecast period (2016 - 2024). It will reach USD 296 billion by 2024. The growth of this market can be attributed to its growing demand in medical devices, home appliances, automotive, packaging, and electrical & electronic end-uses.

The molding process involves injecting molten plastic into molded products and solidifying them. The growth of this industry can be accredited to properties like heat resistance, pressure resistance, minimum wastage, and low labor cost.

Prices of volatile crude oil, benzene, ethylene, propylene, and styrene can challenge market growth in the coming eight years. To overcome such challenges, the industry is trying to manufacture molded plastic using biodegradable products. The injection molded plastic market is segmented into applications, raw materials, and geographies.

Diverse Application of Intumescent Coatings in Various Industries

The Intumescent Coatings Market is estimated to exhibit a 4.6% CAGR over the forecast period (2016-2024). A common regulatory standard is an effective barrier against market players attempting to invest in other regions.

The global market is segmented according to raw material, end-users, and regions. Raw materials dependent on producing these coatings are hydrocarbon or cellulosic based. The former have large market shares, while the latter will exhibit a high growth rate due to its application across marine, automotive, and construction industries. Hydrocarbon coatings have significant returns in terms of revenue due to their increased use in oil & gas sector.


End-users entail automotive, construction, and oil & gas sectors. Oil & gas led the intumescent coatings market due to the exploration & production activities of shale gas and other fossil fuels. Construction sector will see an upsurge due to the increase in infrastructure projects in South America and Asia Pacific. Car safety laws are likely to augment market demand in the automotive sector in the next seven years.

Regions covered under the market are Latin America, North America, Asia Pacific (APAC), Middle East & Africa (MEA), and Europe. Asia Pacific and Europe currently have maximum shares of the market, but Europe will face dull growth in the coming years. North American market is market by product developments and innovative breakthroughs. MEA will experience significant growth due to the growing infrastructure sector and concurrent interest in the oil & gas sector.

Prime companies dominating the market are Akzo Nobel N.V.; Hempel Marine Paints; The Jotun Group; and Rudolf Hensel GmbH. They have been reigning on account of procuring raw materials at low cost. Products with better performance and a longer shelf life will garner maximum market shares. But a stable distribution cycle ranging from manufacturer to end-user will pose a challenge to new market players.
