Zion Research has
published a new report titled “Wood-Plastic Composites (Polyethylene,
Polypropylene, Polyvinyl Chloride, and Others) Market for Building &
Construction, Automotive, Electrical, and Other Applications: Global Industry
Perspective, Comprehensive Analysis, and Forecast, 2014 - 2020.” According to
the report, global demand for wood-plastic composites was valued at USD 3.3
billion in 2014, and is expected to reach USD 6.0 billion in 2020, growing at a
CAGR of around 10.5% between 2015 and 2020. In terms of volume, the global wood-plastic
composites market stood at 3,000.0 kilo
tons in 2014.
Wood-plastic
composites are made up of wood floor or fiber and thermoplastics such as The
desired shape and size is achieved by the extrusion technique employed in
molding wood-plastic composite mixture. Wood-plastic composites exhibit high
durability, low maintenance cost, adequate relative strength and stiffness,
lower prices as compared to other competing materials. Being water, weather and
mould resistant, this material can be used for various outdoor applications;
whereas untreated or chemically treated timber products are not as suited to
weather ability as WPC products.

The wood-plastic
composite market is mainly driven by the growing building & construction
market across the world. Wood-plastic composites are primarily used for
decking, fencing, molding and windows. Automotive industry is another important
outlet for wood-plastic composites market. Rising demand for light weight
vehicles has been resulted into growing usage of wood-plastic composites in
different applications in automotive industry. Wood-plastic composites are
widely used in manufacturing of various automotive components like dashboard,
back rests, interior liners and internal trim of door panels. Use of
wood-plastic composites in the manufacturing of components helps reducing
wirght of components and in tune reduces the overall weight of a vehicle
increasing its fuel efficiency.
The polyethylene
product segment held the largest share in the global wood-plastic composite
market and accounted over 60% of the total volume consumed in 2014. Whereas,
the polyvinyl chloride composites are expected to be the fastest growing
product segment of the wood-plastic composites market during the forecast
period. Building & construction was dominating the application segment of
the wood-plastic composites market and accounted for largest share of the market
in 2014. Automotive was the second largest market with over 20% share of the
total wood-plastic composites volume consumed in 2014. WPCs are used for
manufacturing automobile components such as internal trim for door panels,
dashboards, luggage racks, seat cushions, backrests and other interior liners.
Usage of WPCs reduces the overall weight of automobiles, which also enhances
fuel efficiency, and it also ensures compliance with environmental regulations
due to reduced carbon emissions. Automotive is also expected be the fastest
growing application market fo wood-plastic composites in the next five years.
North America was the
leading regional market for wood-plastic composites in 2014. Europe was the
second largest market with around 17% share in total volume consumption in
2014. However, demand for wood-plastic composites in Asia Pacific is expected
to exhibit robust growth owing to booming construction and automotive industry
in the region.
