Prices of volatile crude oil, benzene, ethylene, propylene, and styrene can challenge market growth in the coming eight years. To overcome such challenges, the industry is trying to manufacture molded plastic using biodegradable products. The injection molded plastic market is segmented into applications, raw materials, and geographies.

Applications include automotive, building & construction, consumables & electronics, packaging, medical, and others. Packaging was the leading application with a net demand surpassing 30,000 kilo tons in 2014.

 

The injection molded plastic holds an immense potential in medical and automotive segments. Biocompatible, cost efficient and optical clarity method of production can drive this segment till 2024.

 

Raw materials comprise acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), Polypropylene, Polystyrene, and others. Polypropylene accounted to over 35% of the total market demand in 2014. High demand for injection molded polypropylene in packaging, automotive, and household goods is likely to impel market growth in the coming years.

 

Geographies encompass North America, Central & South America (CSA), Asia Pacific, Europe, and the Middle East & Africa. Asia Pacific dominated the market holding over 37% of total volume in 2014.
