Plastic Compounding Market is Growing at Significant Rate, 2028: Grand View Research Inc.

 Plastic Compounding Market Growth & Trends

The global plastic compounding market size is anticipated to reach USD 93.1 billion by 2028, according to a report by Grand View Research, Inc., growing at a CAGR of 5.5% over the forecast period. Rapidly developing construction and automobile sectors are anticipated to drive the demand for interiors, exteriors, and under-the-hood components. The rising scope of application of plastic compounding in under-the-hood components in the automotive industry, in building interiors and exteriors in the construction & infrastructure industries, and in the electronics, durables, and wires & cables industries is anticipated to fuel the market growth.

However, the COVID-19 outbreak has affected the raw material prices of plastic compounding. Recently, crude oil prices slumped due to the global pandemic. A decline in demand, halts or slowdowns in the manufacturing industry, and restrictions in supply & travel are resulting in the reduction of crude oil prices. Thus, the raw material providers who can procure or store crude oil in the current situation can generate a significant profit margin.

Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) is the plastic used for manufacturing bottle containers that are used for packaged water and carbonated beverages. As a raw material, PET is recognized as a safe, strong, flexible, non-toxic, and lightweight material that is 100% recyclable. Hence, it has gained wide acceptability and, in turn, is anticipated to drive the market growth over the forecast period.

Asia Pacific was the leading market for the PET compound segment in 2019. Ever-increasing demand for beverages, mainly carbonated and nutritional drinks, is anticipated to drive the regional consumption of PET compounds. This trend is favored by a rise in population, changing lifestyles, and the emergence of domestic beverage manufacturers. The presence of a large pool of contract bottlers in the region shall also increase the scope of the packaging application segment.

Traditionally, the construction industry has been a major consumer of plastics with product applications ranging from pipe fittings and insulation to masonry materials and equipment. Plastic compounds are modified in accordance with their requirements. For instance, flame retardant additives are added to Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) compounds.

Developing countries, such as Mexico, are expected to benefit from the rising construction spending and inclination of consumers toward utilizing sustainable and lightweight building materials in place of conventional materials. The expanding automotive sector and changing consumer buying behavior, from considering cars as luxuries to necessities, are also significant factors anticipated to boost the plastics sector growth.

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the revenue generation of the companies operating in the global market. For instance, SABIC, one of the prominent players, witnessed a decline in revenue in the first quarter of 2020 by 18% as compared to the first quarter of 2019 due to decreased product demand as a result of challenges in supply/demand balance caused by the pandemic.

Dark Fiber Network Market Will See Strong Expansion Through 2028: Grand View Research Inc.

 Dark Fiber Network Market Growth & Trends

The global dark fiber network market size is estimated to reach USD 10.05 billion by 2028, according to the new report by Grand View Research, Inc. It is projected to expand at a CAGR of 9.3% from 2021 to 2028. Dark fiber has emerged as a sustainable solution for various organizations that are focusing on enhanced communication and network management. Continuously increasing penetration of internet services over the period has paved the way for the high demand for internet bandwidth. This demand is expected to remain rampant over the forecast period. This is the most significant factor responsible for market growth across the globe. The market is strongly supported by companies with a high reliance on internet connectivity. These networks are highly beneficial for organizations with a high volume of data flow in their operation. These benefits include reduced network latency, scalability, reliability, and enhanced security.

In fiber-optic communications, fiber optic cables that are not yet put in service by a provider or carrier, are termed as dark fiber or unlit fiber. Network communications and telecom usually use the network, and currently, there are lots of dark fiber cables across the globe. In regular fiber networks, information is sent through the cables in light pulses. Whereas, dark fiber networks are known to be ‘dark’ as no light or data is transmitted from them.

Dark fiber networks can be installed and set up using point-to-multipoint or point-to-point configurations. Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) is an essential factor for the improvement and development of dark fiber networks. DWDM occurs when many data signals are transmitted using the same optical fiber at the same time. Although these signals are transmitted around the same time, they are transmitted at separate and unique wavelengths to keep these data signals separate. The significant benefits of DWDM include an increase in bandwidth of the optical fiber, high-quality internet performance, lightning-fast internet, and a secure and powerful network.

Dark fiber networks are not just used for business purposes but can be installed beneath land and oceans. Some of the interesting use cases of dark fiber include earthquake research and monitoring permafrost. Amongst many advantages, some of the disadvantages of the dark fiber network include high initial cost and loss of time in setting up your infrastructure, and high repairing and maintenance costs. Similarly, large dark fiber networks are currently available in metropolitan cities only and are yet to become available in small cities and towns.

Plastic Compounding Market Expected to Witness a Sustainable Growth over 2028: Grand View Research Inc.

 Plastic Compounding Market Growth & Trends

The global plastic compounding market size is anticipated to reach USD 93.1 billion by 2028, according to a report by Grand View Research, Inc., growing at a CAGR of 5.5% over the forecast period. Rapidly developing construction and automobile sectors are anticipated to drive the demand for interiors, exteriors, and under-the-hood components. The rising scope of application of plastic compounding in under-the-hood components in the automotive industry, in building interiors and exteriors in the construction & infrastructure industries, and in the electronics, durables, and wires & cables industries is anticipated to fuel the market growth.

However, the COVID-19 outbreak has affected the raw material prices of plastic compounding. Recently, crude oil prices slumped due to the global pandemic. A decline in demand, halts or slowdowns in the manufacturing industry, and restrictions in supply & travel are resulting in the reduction of crude oil prices. Thus, the raw material providers who can procure or store crude oil in the current situation can generate a significant profit margin.

Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) is the plastic used for manufacturing bottle containers that are used for packaged water and carbonated beverages. As a raw material, PET is recognized as a safe, strong, flexible, non-toxic, and lightweight material that is 100% recyclable. Hence, it has gained wide acceptability and, in turn, is anticipated to drive the market growth over the forecast period.

Asia Pacific was the leading market for the PET compound segment in 2019. Ever-increasing demand for beverages, mainly carbonated and nutritional drinks, is anticipated to drive the regional consumption of PET compounds. This trend is favored by a rise in population, changing lifestyles, and the emergence of domestic beverage manufacturers. The presence of a large pool of contract bottlers in the region shall also increase the scope of the packaging application segment.

Traditionally, the construction industry has been a major consumer of plastics with product applications ranging from pipe fittings and insulation to masonry materials and equipment. Plastic compounds are modified in accordance with their requirements. For instance, flame retardant additives are added to Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) compounds.

Developing countries, such as Mexico, are expected to benefit from the rising construction spending and inclination of consumers toward utilizing sustainable and lightweight building materials in place of conventional materials. The expanding automotive sector and changing consumer buying behavior, from considering cars as luxuries to necessities, are also significant factors anticipated to boost the plastics sector growth.

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the revenue generation of the companies operating in the global market. For instance, SABIC, one of the prominent players, witnessed a decline in revenue in the first quarter of 2020 by 18% as compared to the first quarter of 2019 due to decreased product demand as a result of challenges in supply/demand balance caused by the pandemic.
