Market Overview:
The global high density polyethylene (HDPE) market reached a value of US$ 70.4 Billion in 2020. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 86.8 Billion by 2026, exhibiting a CAGR of 3.5% during 2021-2026. Keeping in mind the uncertainties of COVID-19, we are continuously tracking and evaluating the direct as well as the indirect influence of the pandemic on different end use industries. These insights are included in the report as a major market contributor.
High density polyethylene (HDPE) is a moderately stiff plastic with a highly crystalline structure. It is strong, inexpensive, possesses excellent processability, and has several characteristics that make it an ideal material for packaging and manufacturing applications. It is tougher than standard polyethylene, acts as a powerful barrier against moisture, and remains solid at room temperature. Besides this, it is resistant to insects, rot, and chemicals. HDPE does not generate harmful emissions during its manufacturing or during application by end users. As it also leaks no harmful chemicals into the soil or water, its sales are increasing worldwide.
High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) Market Trends:
HDPE finds extensive application in numerous industries on account of its low moisture absorption and chemical and corrosion resistance. For instance, it is widely utilized in the packaging industry across the globe due to rapid urbanization, boosting sales of smart devices, increasing internet penetration and the thriving e-commerce sector. Moreover, there is a rise in the employment of HDPE in the food and beverage (F&B) sector on account of its increasing usage in the production of various products, such as bottle caps, food storage containers, and bags. This, coupled with the growing on-the-go food consumption, rising number of online food delivery platforms and the certification of HDPE as a food-grade polymer, is strengthening the market growth. Apart from this, pipes made from HDPE are used in the construction industry around the world for residential plumbing purposes. This, in confluence with the rising global population, is fueling the growth of the market.
