Press Release

Wood Plastic Composite Market is expected to grow at a robust CAGR

Global Wood Plastic Composite Market is expected to grow owing to increasing demand for sustainable products to reduce the carbon footprint in the environment and growing production of automobiles throughout the forecast period.

 

According to TechSci Research report, “Wood Plastic Composite Market - Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast 2018-2028”, the Global Wood Plastic Composite Market is expected to register robust growth during the forecast period. The market is propelled by the growing demand for sustainable construction materials, coupled with the rise in renovation and repair activities in the residential sector worldwide. These products are increasingly utilized in construction applications. Wood plastic composites are being employed in roofing applications and the production of glass windows.

With sustainability taking center stage in the construction industry, Wood-Plastic Composites (WPCs) offer a noteworthy opportunity. WPCs are environmentally friendly materials that utilize recycled plastics and wood fibers, effectively reducing the ecological footprint of construction. Given the growing preference for sustainable building practices by governments and consumers alike, the demand for WPCs in applications such as decking, cladding, and fencing is expected to witness a significant surge.

Government initiatives and regulations targeted at promoting sustainable materials and mitigating plastic waste foster a conducive environment for the WPC market. Manufacturers can capitalize on incentives, subsidies, and green building standards that incentivize the utilization of WPCs in construction and manufacturing.

Based on plastic material, Polyethylene segment is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period. Polyethylene is a widely utilized thermoplastic material in the production of WPCs, holding a significant market share alongside other thermoplastics like polypropylene (PP) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Its cost-effectiveness makes PE-based WPCs an attractive choice for manufacturers and consumers alike. With excellent versatility in processing, PE-based WPCs can be easily extruded or molded into various shapes and profiles, finding prominent applications in the construction sector such as decking, railing, cladding, and fencing. Moreover, PE-based WPCs are highly valued for their durability and low maintenance requirements. In the automotive industry, they are utilized for interior components like door panels, seat backs, and trunk liners, contributing to fuel efficiency due to their lightweight properties. Ongoing industry innovation focuses on enhancing the properties of PE-based WPCs through research on additives, reinforcements, and coupling agents, aiming to improve performance characteristics such as strength, UV resistance, and fire resistance.

Based on end-use industry, Building & Construction Products segment is projected to dominate the market throughout the forecast period. The construction industry represents the largest application sector for wood-plastic composites (WPC). With their moisture and rot resistance, as well as extended aesthetic quality, WPCs find wide-ranging use in decking, moulding and trimming, fencing, landscaping, and outdoor applications. Decking, in particular, holds significant importance in the realm of WPC applications. In the construction context, a deck refers to a flat or profiled (anti-slip) surface capable of bearing weight. Unlike floors, decks are typically constructed outdoors, often elevated from the ground, and frequently connected to buildings. Wood-plastic composite decking offers versatile functionality, serving as a key component in garden landscaping, expanding living areas, providing an alternative to stone-based features (such as patios), and creating residential decks with spaces for cooking, dining, and seating. WPCs are rapidly gaining traction as an indispensable building material in contemporary housing and commercial construction methods, driven by the increasing emphasis on sustainable construction practices. The global construction sector continues to expand, with China witnessing substantial investments in affordable residential colonies from both public and private sectors due to changing demographics. According to the National Bureau of Statistics of China, housing starts in China increased from 76 million sq m in July 2022 to 85 million sq m in August 2022. Moreover, China's projected expenditure of nearly USD 13 trillion on buildings by 2030 further augments the positive outlook for WPCs.
