According to a new market report published by Lucintel, the future of filled thermoplastics market looks promising with opportunities in the European consumer appliances, electrical & electronics, power tools and other markets. The filled thermoplastics in the European consumer goods market is expected to reach an estimated $2.7 billion by 2024 with a CAGR of 3.6% from 2019 to 2024. The major drivers for this market are growing demand for consumer goods and increasing use of plastic components to reduce the part weight.
In this market, resin (polypropylene, polyamide, polybutylene terephthalate, and polycarbonate) and fillers (mineral filler and fibers) are the major raw materials used for filled thermoplastic compound manufacturing. Lucintel forecasts that polypropylene resin based filled thermoplastics will remain the largest segment by value and volume. The growing use of lightweight materials and comparatively lower cost than other thermoplastic resins is likely to drive the consumption of polypropylene based filled thermoplastics over the forecast period.
