Automotive Plastics Market Dynamics

Driver: Growing Demand for Lightweight Vehicles

The automotive industry witnessed a significant transformation owing to the growing emphasis on reducing the weight of the vehicle to improve fuel efficiency. Rapid technological advancements in the manufacturing of thermoplastics elastomers, and automobile components, coupled with plastics are discovering innovative applications in the automotive industry. Furthermore, the usage of plastics is expected to grow over the coming years due to improved regulations. Plastic is available in regions such as Europe, Japan, and India. Plastics include polymers such as polyurethane, polypropylene, and polyamides. These plastics add the property of binding. They can be bound together, unlike metals, which require welding. The growing awareness about vehicle weight and fuel economy is expected to boost market growth. Utilization of plastics in the automotive sector is driven by the necessity of security, light-weight, and cost-effective sport-utility vehicle (SUV) or multi-utility vehicle (MUV) models that prioritize high fuel efficiency and place an emphasis on comfort and aesthetics.

Driver: Growing Development In Electronic Industry To Fuel Market Growth

Several government and federal regulations have been implemented to regulate and control plastic waste. Plastics are non-biodegradable. It requires an intensive recycling process in order to avoid or reduce potential harm to the environment and all living beings. Burning of plastics generates gases such as hydrochloric acid, carbon monoxide, acetaldehyde, styrene, amines, nitrides, and butadiene. Several automotive OME companies are recycling waste plastics to produce multiple parts in vehicles. Plastics used in automotive manufacturing are compounded with fiberglass and additives to improve stability and mechanical properties. These factors are estimated to boost market growth in the coming years.

Restraint: Volatile Raw Material Prices To Hamper Market Progress

Fluctuation in raw material prices such as crude oil, natural gas, and coal, along with salt and sand. Owing to political instability and supply-demand imbalances are anticipated to harm market growth over the forecast period.

Research Methodology

A three-pronged approach was followed for deducing the automotive plastics market estimates and forecasts. The process has three steps: information procurement, analysis, and validation. The whole process is cyclical, and steps repeat until the estimates are validated. The three steps are explained in detail below:

Information procurement: Information procurement is one of the most extensive and important stages in our research process, and quality data is critical for accurate analysis. We followed a multi-channel data collection process for automotive plastics market to gather the most reliable and current information possible.

  • We buy access to paid databases such as Hoover’s and Factiva for company financials, industry information, white papers, industry journals, SME journals, and more.
  • We tap into Grand View’s proprietary database of data points and insights from active and archived monitoring and reporting.
  • We conduct primary research with industry experts through questionnaires and one-on-one phone interviews.
  • We pull from reliable secondary sources such as white papers and government statistics, published by organizations like WHO, NGOs, World Bank, etc., Key Opinion Leaders (KoL) publications, company filings, investor documents, and more.
  • We purchase and review investor analyst reports, broker reports, academic commentary, government quotes, and wealth management publications for insightful third-party perspectives.

Analysis: We mine the data collected to establish baselines for forecasting, identify trends and opportunities, gain insight into consumer demographics and drivers, and so much more. We utilized different methods of automotive plastics market data depending on the type of information we’re trying to uncover in our research.

  • Market Research Efforts: Bottom-up Approach for estimating and forecasting demand size and opportunity, top-down Approach for new product forecasting and penetration, and combined approach of both Bottom-up and Top-down for full coverage analysis.

  • Value-Chain-Based Sizing & Forecasting: Supply-side estimates for understanding potential revenue through competitive benchmarking, forecasting, and penetration modeling.

  • Demand-side estimates for identifying parent and ancillary markets, segment modeling, and heuristic forecasting.

  • Qualitative Functional Deployment (QFD) Modelling for market share assessment.

Market formulation and validation: We mine the data collected to establish baselines for forecasting, identify trends and opportunities, gain insight into consumer demographics and drivers, and so much more. We utilize different methods of data analysis depending on the type of information we’re trying to uncover in our research.

  • Market Formulation: This step involves the finalization of market numbers. This step on an internal level is designed to manage outputs from the Data Analysis step.

  • Data Normalization: The final market estimates and forecasts are then aligned and sent to industry experts, in-panel quality control managers for validation.

  • This step also entails the finalization of the report scope and data representation pattern.

  • Validation: The process entails multiple levels of validation. All these steps run in parallel, and the study is forwarded for publishing only if all three levels render validated results.

Automotive Plastics Market Categorization:

The automotive plastics market was categorized into five segments, namely product (Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, Polypropylene, Polyurethane, Polyvinyl Chloride, Polyethylene, Polybutylene Terephthalate, Polycarbonate, Polymethyl methacrylate, Polyamide), process (Injection Molding, Blow Molding, Thermoforming), application (Powertrains, Electrical Components, Interior Furnishing, Exterior Furnishing, Under the hood, Chassis), vehicle type (Passenger Cars, Light Commercial Vehicles, Medium & Heavy Commercial Vehicles ) and regions (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Central & South America, Middle East & Africa).

Segment Market Methodology:

The automotive plastics market was segmented into product, process, vehicle typeapplication, and regions. The demand at a segment level was deduced using a funnel method. Concepts like the TAM, SAM, SOM, etc., were put into practice to understand the demand. We at GVR deploy three methods to deduce market estimates and determine forecasts. These methods are explained below:

Market research approaches: Bottom-up

  • Demand estimation of each product across countries/regions summed up to from the total market.

  • Variable analysis for demand forecast.
