    Automotive Plastics Market Overview:

    The global market for Automotive Plastics was worth USD 28,540 million in 2021. It is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.7%, between 2023 and 2032.

    The key factors driving the global growth of automotive plastics are recovery in the automotive industry, better vehicle design capabilities, increasing emphasis on vehicle weight reduction, and emission control, and increased focus on vehicle emissions and vehicle weight. Because plastics can be easily manufactured, can be sourced from renewable raw materials, and have improved designs, they are commonly used in automotive parts and components.

    Global Automotive Plastics Market Scope:

    Product type analysis

    The polypropylene segment dominated the market, accounting for over 31.2% of global revenue in 2021. This can be attributed largely to an increase in product demand from end-use industries like construction, electrical and electronic, packaging, and consumer products.

    Because of its chemical and physical properties, polypropylene can be used in both rigid and flexible packaging. It is also very resistant to electrical and chemical attacks at extremely high temperatures. PP is lighter than other plastics, making it ideal for automotive applications. This helps to reduce the vehicle’s overall weight and fuel consumption. In 2021, polyvinyl chloride was the second largest product segment. PVC is used in many domestic and industrial products, including raincoats and shower curtains, window frames, indoor plumbing, and even indoor plumbing. PVC is used in many automotive applications, including underbody coatings and sealants, floor modules and wire harnesses, exterior parts, and passenger compartment parts.

    Automotive Plastics Market analysis

    Process Analysis

    Injection molding dominated the market, accounting for more than 54.3% of all revenue in 2021. This is due to the use of many injection-molded plastics within the automotive industry to make door handles, engine tubes and hoses, dashboard and console covers and brackets, radio covers, other electrical internal components, buttons, bezel panels, knobs, and shifter levers, controls, covers for the roof of convertibles and sunroof assemblies, and buttons and bezels.

    Molding through Injection is one of the most popular processes in the industry of automotive for molding plastic. This is the process of injecting molten material under high pressure into a mold to create custom parts and fittings. Injection molding technology has become more important in the mass production of complex plastic molds due to modern innovations that reduce the chance of errors. LyondellBasell, for instance, began making virgin quality polymers in Wesseling (Germany) in May 2021 using raw materials from plastic waste. These raw materials are processed in the company’s manufacturing facilities into ethylene or propylene. They are then used to make polyethylene (PE), and polypropylene(PP) in downstream units for plastics manufacture.

    The blow molding process is used widely in the automotive industry. It allows for complex products to be made in a variety of designs and shapes, which can make it more expensive than other technologies. This allows companies to increase production in a short time while still being flexible in design and materials. It does have its limitations, such as high machine costs and large machines taking up more space. This is restricting their use in small-scale industries.

    Application Analysis

    In 2021, the automotive plastics market was led by interior furnishings. This segment accounted for more than 41% of total revenue. The market is expected to grow due to increased demand for automotive plastics such as body and light panels and seat covers, steering wheels and seat bases, load floor, headliners, and rear package shelves.

    In order to support advanced electronics, digitalization has also prompted a demand for plastics that can be integrated into car dashboards. High electrical insulation properties and safety concerns have driven the demand for instrument panels with advanced electronic systems. PVC plastics are highly compatible with instrument panels and other electrical components because they have excellent chemical and solvent resistance, good tensile strength, and flexibility. In June 2021 HDT Automotive Solutions LLC purchased Veritas AG. This alliance would expand HDT’s innovative material science and connection expertise in metal fluid and plastics as well as rubber connecting devices for different automotive applications.

    Market Dynamics:

    The COVID-19 pandemic caused a drop in new vehicle sales, shutting down production facilities, a shortage of parts, and a fall in working capital. It caused an interruption in the supply chains and a suspension of production. This resulted in lower retail sales. Many individuals became uncertain about their jobs and the long-term economic and health consequences of the virus, which influenced their buying decisions. The most common materials used for vehicle parts are polypropylene (PP), Polyvinyl Chloride, Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene, and Automotive Plastics. Plastics go through five stages during recycling. These include sorting, washing, and shredding. Manufacturers have been forced to use high-performance automotive plastics due to improvements in recycling processes.

    Polymerization of plastic monomers is done using chemical reactions and catalysts. They are then transformed into Polycarbonate, Polypropylene and Polyethylene (PP), Polyvinyl Chloride(PVC), Polystyrene, and other polymerized materials. These materials have far superior properties to their monomers and are very stable and can be used in mold making and fabrication.

    Regional Analysis:

    The Asia Pacific was the dominant market, accounting for over 46.3% of global revenue in 2021. Market growth will be boosted by shifting production from developed countries to emerging Asian economies, especially in China, India, and Thailand. The market for automotive plastics will benefit from an improved manufacturing base and increased investments in advanced technologies. APAC and Europe are very conscious of fuel efficiency. This has also fueled the demand for sustainable plastics. In November 2021, for example, the Indian Oil Corporation (IOC), along with two other oil companies from the public sector, announced plans to build 22,000 electric vehicle charging stations over the next three-five years. In 2021, Europe was the second largest market for automotive plastics. High-performance plastics are used by European automobile manufacturers as they are lightweight and energy-efficient. European automakers have had to switch from diesel engines to electric motors due to strict emission standards. This will also increase product demand during the forecast period.
