PP Compound Market

PP compound is a material made by mixing polypropylene resin with additives, fillers, and reinforcements to improve its strength, rigidity, impact resistance, and thermal stability. These compounds are tailored for various applications and are widely used in the automotive, consumer goods, electrical and electronics, and packaging industries due to their versatility and cost-effectiveness.

 

Global Supply/Demand Outlook

The global PP compound market stood at a volume of around 8,324 KT in the year 2023. The market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.0% between 2024 and 2032 to reach a volume of about 11,942.5 KT by 2032. The key factors propelling the PP compound market are increasing automotive production and growing electrical and electronics and consumer electronics sector. The automotive industry is a major consumer of PP compounds and is anticipated to remain the largest market in the forecast period. This growth is driven by rising automotive production and the increasing demand for lightweight, durable materials, prompted by stringent government regulations aimed at enhancing fuel efficiency and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

 

The global capacity of PP compound was about 9,615 KT in the year 2023. Asia Pacific holds the major share of PP compound capacities, representing more than 55% of the global production capacity. North America and Europe follow closely behind, together accounting around 35% of the capacity. The plant capacity utilization of PP compound has been increasing continuously post COVID-19. In 2023, the plant utilization increased to 85% from 80% in 2022 due to high demand in Asia Pacific region and rising price level.

 

Key Market Players

LyondellBasell is the world's leading producer of PP compounds and in 2016, the company had completed the acquisition of A. Schulman, Inc to more than double its compounding business during that time. Currently, LyondellBasell has around 30 compounding facilities across the globe. The company holds approximately 14% of the global PP compound capacity. It is followed by Mitsui Chemicals and Kinga, with each of them holding nearly 12% of the overall market share.

 

Other major manufacturers of PP compound are Borealis AG, Mitsubishi Corporation, Washington Penn, Sumitomo Chemical, GS Caltex, Exxon Mobil, SABIC, Ravago, and IRPC. Combined, these companies represent around 60% of the global capacity.
