The market in Central & South America (CSA) is expected to witness substantial growth, driven by increasing investments in the automotive sector. The rising trend toward lightweight vehicles in countries such as Argentina, Brazil, and Colombia is anticipated to boost the demand for thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) over the forecast period. 

TPEs are being widely adopted in automotive applications, due to their flexibility, durability, and ability to reduce vehicle weight, enhancing fuel efficiency and performance. Growing governmental initiatives, such as the digitalization of the Unified Health System in Brazil aimed at improving public healthcare infrastructure, are expected to significantly impact industry applications such as medical components, wound care, and implants. 

The versatility, biocompatibility, and ease of sterilization of TPEs make them ideal for use in these medical applications, driving demand in the region. Additionally, the region's transition toward green energy sources, supported by its favorable geographic conditions for solar power, is expected to contribute to the growth of the TPE market.
