These components make use of ABS, PC, PA, and POM. The key elements that drive the engineering plastics market growth include rise in trend of reducing vehicle weight, improvement in fuel efficiency, and metal replacement in the construction and electrical & electronics industries. Moreover, growth in the end-user industry namely packaging, building & construction, electrical & electronics, automotive and consumer products is further expected to increase the consumption of engineering plastics. However, fluctuating price of crude oil and regulatory challenges about CO2 emissions hamper the market growth. In the year 2015, ABS segment acquired the largest share and is expected to lead during due to its versatile design structure, dimensional stability, mechanical strength, and thermal resistance. The polyamide segment is expected to grow with a high CAGR of 6.7% from 2016 to 2022 owing to increased demand from the automotive sector. In 2015, the automotive application segment accounted for the largest market share of nearly one-fourth. Packaging is estimated to be the fastest growing application segment with a CAGR of 7.3% due to the increase in requirement of enhanced storage and transporting solutions for perishable and non-perishable goods. In the year 2015, Asia-Pacific occupied the largest market share of about 30%, owing to the growth in the automotive and consumer products industry. The huge emerging markets of China and India are estimated to show the highest increase in demand for polyamide (nylon) and polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) products. Furthermore, LAMEA is estimated to grow at the highest CAGR of 7.8%, as it consists of several emerging economies with expanding end-user industries such as automotive, construction, and consumer products.
