Wood Plastic Composites (WPC) Market – Forecast (2016-2022) – Analysis By Type, Application & Geography – Research and Markets

DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “Wood
Plastic Composites (WPC) Market-Forecast (2016-2022)” report
has been added to Research and Markets’ offering.

Wood plastic composites are manufactured from the combination of wood
fibers and synthetic resin such as polypropylene, polyethylene or
Polyvinyl Chloride which belong to the thermoplastic category. Wood,
which is in the form of sawdust or wood flour and Wood fibers are
recycled and pines are vigorously mixed with heated thermoplastic
resins. Wood Plastic Composites possess the dual properties of wood and
plastic. On mixing, wood flour magnifies the mechanical properties and
thermal properties as compared to solid thermoplastics.

Globally, increasing demand from building & construction activities
and increasing demand for recyclable materials in automotive industry is
expected to be the prime growth factor for wood plastic composites
during the period of study. Geographically, North America dominated the
wood plastic composites (WPC) market driven by higher demand and
consumption of wood plastic composites materials into a wide range of
applications.

Asia-North America was followed by Europe and Asia-Pacific as second and
third largest market for wood plastic composites (WPC) market. Asia
Pacific is projected to have the fastest growth, owing to Initiatives
taken by governments to promote growth in the manufacturing sectors will
further aid the growth of the wood-plastic composites market in
developing nations such as China and India in this region.
