June 14, 2017

#ChemicalsandMaterials--Technavio has announced the top five leading vendors in their recent global plastic fillers market 2017-2021 report. This market research report also lists six other prominent vendors that are expected to impact the market during the forecast period.

Competitive vendor landscape

According to the research analysis, the global plastic fillers market consists of key players that operate in a highly competitive environment. LKAB, Imerys, Minerals Technologies, Omya, and Huber Engineered Materials are the major vendors in the market. These players have a vast geographic presence with large production facilities located globally. However, there are a sizeable number of small regional vendors that hold significant shares in the market.

Technavio estimates that the global plastics market will grow significantly to exceed USD 650 billion in terms of revenue and 340 million metric tons in terms of volume by 2021. APAC accounted for the largest market share of approximately 45% in the global plastics market in 2016. The market growth in this region is driven by the demand from the construction and automotive industries. The plastics market in North America and Europe is mainly driven by innovations in the field of bio-based alternatives to plastics. The growing disposable income of individuals in Brazil and Argentina is expected to drive the market in Central and South America.

Plastics are widely used in packaging, construction, electrical and electronics, automotive, and many other industries. Advances in technology in developed and developing regions will also provide prospects for the growth of different types of plastic fillers during the forecast period,” says Hitesh Bhatia, a lead plastics, polymers, and elastomers research analyst from Technavio.
