COVID-19 Impact on the Global Polyolefin Foam Market

The outbreak of COVID-19 has disrupted the production of raw materials used in polyolefin foam manufacturing. Asian countries such as India, China, Japan, Singapore, and Thailand are the hubs for polyolefin foam manufacturing and are major suppliers of these raw materials. The outbreak of the novel coronavirus in APAC has affected the supply of these raw materials. The break in the supplies of raw materials has reduced the production of polyolefin foam products.

In April 2020, all private buildings and construction sites, government constructions, and refinish automotive businesses were hit drastically.

Polyolefin Foam Market Dynamics

Driver: Growing demand from packaging and automotive industry

Polyolefin foam are used in the automotive, packaging and infrastructure industry for flooring, insulation.

Restraint: High prices of raw materials and energy

Polyolefin foam are costly, and their cost of manufacturing is also growing with the increase in the price of raw material. Raw materials for polyolefin foam vary a lot in terms of prices. In addition to the raw material prices, manufacturers are also burdened with the additional cost incurred due to the increased taxes on energy which results in higher operating costs and lower profit margins.

Opportunity: Increasing demand for lightweight products.

Several of them are exposed to environmental changes or involve the use of harsh materials. This results in the deterioration in the structure of the equipment or decline in the efficiency of the process, which causes shutdown of the plant or stoppage in the overall operations.

Challenge: Development of cost-effective products under stringent environmental regulations

Polyolefin Foam Market Ecosystem

Polyolefin Foam Market by Ecosystem

Polyethylene resin segment accounted for the largest share of the polyolefin foam market in 2021.

Polyethylene resin segment accounts for the largest share in the polyolefin foam market. The properties of polyethylene foam can be enhanced by adding additives and modifiers to meet the required specifications. They are hard and offer resistance to humidity, abrasion, water, acid, alkali, and seawater. They possess low volatility and are water cleanable. These properties make these coatings ideal for use in metallic surfaces such as cast iron and aluminum.

APAC is the largest polyolefin foam market in the forecast period

APAC has emerged as one of the leading producers as well as consumers of polyolefin foam. APAC is the hub of foreign investment and booming industrial sectors due to the low-cost labor and cheap availability of lands. Increase in the demand for polyolefin foam can be largely attributed to the growing packaging, construction, and automotive industries. APAC has a growing automotive industry that is likely to drive the market for polyolefin foam.

The spread of the coronavirus started in China in early January 2020. Within a small period, the spread in other Asian countries such as Japan, South Korea, and Thailand resulted in the pandemic situation, with numerous positive cases and deaths. This situation led national governments across APAC to announce lockdowns, leading to a decrease in traffic, construction & mining activities, manufacturing industries, and so on. Since China is a global manufacturing hub, the impact of COVID-19 is anticipated to be much higher in the country.
