Impact Analysis of Covid-19
The complete version of the Report will include the impact of the COVID-19, and anticipated change on the future outlook of the industry, by taking into the account the political, economic, social, and technological parameters.
Global Masterbatch Market shows influential growth due to emerging application in different sectors such as packaging, building & construction, consumer goods, automotive, textile, and agriculture
The Global Masterbatch market expected to proliferate due to increasing urbanization, large-scale investment in infrastructure and industrial sectors, and emerging demand for plastics. Owing to the characteristics of a masterbatch, which is cost-efficient, likely to maintain the chemical and color stability of pigments, better dispersibility of pigments in plastics, impart the color and strengthen the mechanical properties of plastic without affecting the health of operators, save time and raw materials as well.
The masterbatch is composed of carrier resin, a filler, and various additives. The limit of the additives in the masterbatch or the content of the filler is several times to ten times higher than the actual amount required in the plastic product. During the molding process, the ratio of the masterbatch to the resin must be adjusted according to the relevant components in the masterbatch and the amount needed to be added to the actual product. Additionally, a masterbatch is extremely cost-effective, and plastic manufacturing companies are extensively using, and it saves lots of amounts.
Moreover, Masterbatches are extremely easy to use as they do not have any trial and error method and can easily achieve the desired color with complete safety without using any powder pigment. Therefore, wastage reduced when masterbatches used for production. As masterbatches extensively used in many industries such as food & packaging and consumer goods due to its properties, which improve the physical properties of the basic plastic such as higher toughness, stiffness, clear printability, and adhesion. These benefits are likely to increase demand for the masterbatch market in the forecast period.
Types Overview in the Global Masterbatch Market
Based on the types, the global masterbatch market segmented into color, additive, white, black, and fillers. The additive segment expected to witness substantial growth in the forecast period. Additives such as flame retardant, brightening, antibacterial, anti-static, anti-oxidation, and other varieties do not use in color masterbatch unless the customer requests.
Polymer Overview in the Global Masterbatch market
Based on Polymer, the global masterbatch market classified into Polypropylene, Low-Density Polyethylene & Linear Low-Density Polyethylene, High-Density Polyethylene, Polyvinyl Chloride, Polyurethane, and Others. Low-Density Polyethylene expected to increase the growth of masterbatch in the forecast period. With the increasing use of polymer wires and cables, which improve the quality and eliminates the breakage and cutting of wires along with the use of polyolefins and nylon in clothes will also increase the market share in the future.
Application Overview in the global Masterbatch Market
Based on application, the global masterbatch segmented into Packaging, Building & Construction, Automotive, Consumer Goods, Textile, and Agriculture. The automotive sector has captured a substantial share in the market. Due to an increase in demand for plastic bodies of vehicles than metal bodies and the government investing money on the same. Moreover, the food & packaging industry is expected to boost its demand in the forecast years due to the substantial need for the colorful packaging and color masterbatch.
Region Overview in the global Masterbatch Market
Based on geography, the global masterbatch market segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, and Middle East & Africa. The Asia Pacific region is likely to surge the growth of masterbatch market due to the rising need for plastic in different sectors and with cost-effective nature, and eco-friendly properties of masterbatch expected to majorly grow in regions like China and Taiwan in the forecast period from 2020-2027.
Global Masterbatch Market: Competitive Landscape
Companies such as Clariant AG, Ampacet Corporation, A.Schulman, Inc., Polyone Corporation, Cabot Corporation, Plastika Kritis S.A., Plastiblends India Ltd, Hubron International, Tosaf Group, and Penn Color, Inc. and others are some prominent players in the global masterbatch market.
