Global polypropylene market is projected to grow at a CAGR of over 6%, in value terms, during 2018-2023. Increased fuel efficiency, growing demand from developing countries, numerous benefits of polypropylene, growing penetrations of eco-friendly material, high demand for bio-based polypropylene and excessive R&D activities are some factors, that will propel the demand for Polypropylene over the next five years. APAC is anticipated to remain a strong contributor in the Polypropylene market in the forecast period, owing to increasing environmental concerns over the use disposal of plastic. APAC is expected to register faster CAGR than any other region, backed by growing demand for polypropylene products.

Some of the major players operating in the global polypropylene are

SABIC, Reliance Industries Ltd, PetroChina Company Limited, Sinopec Ltd, Exxon Mobil Corporation, Borealis AG, Formosa Plastics Corporation, and Japan Polypropylene Corporation etc.

TechSci Research performed primary as well as exhaustive secondary research for this study. Initially, TechSci Research sourced a list of polypropylene manufacturers globally. Subsequently, TechSci Research conducted primary research surveys with the identified companies. While interviewing, the respondents were also enquired about their competitors. Through this technique, TechSci Research was able to include manufacturers, distributors and dealers that could not be identified due to the limitations of secondary research. TechSci Research analysed type, application, end-use industry & regional presence of all major polypropylene manufacturers across the globe.

TechSci Research calculated the market size for the global polypropylene using a bottom-up approach, where manufacturers’ value data for type of (homopolymer, copolymer & others), polypropylene was recorded as well as forecast for the future years was made. TechSci Research sourced these values from industry experts and company representatives, and externally validated through analyzing historical sales data of respective manufacturers to arrive at the overall market size. Various secondary sources such as company annual reports, white papers, investor presentations and financial reports were also used by the TechSci Research.


Key Target Audience:

  • Global polypropylene manufacturers
  • Research organizations and consulting companies
  • Organizations, associations and alliances related to polypropylene
  • Government bodies such as regulating authorities and policy makers.
  • Industry associations
  • Raw Material Suppliers

 The study is useful in providing answers to several critical questions that are important for industry stakeholders, such as manufacturers, dealers, distributors and policy makers, which market segments should be targeted over the polypropylene coming years (next five years) in order to strategize investments and capitalize on growth of the market.
