Europe was the early hotspot for the virus in early 2020 and it had a severe impact on major European economies as most of them were shut. It has negatively affected the demand for composites across various end-use industries such as aerospace & defense, automotive & transportation, wind energy, construction & infrastructure, and pipes & tanks. The disruption in the supply chain has led to delays in the arrival of raw materials, an impact on finances, and shaking morale among production workers, forcing the companies to function at reduced resources. This has led to reduction in demand for composites. However, the demand from the packaging industry increased in this period which led to more production of plastics. The market is estimated to become normal from 2021.
Engineering plastics is quickly replacing the traditional materials in many manufacturing and industrial sectors and thus this adoption of the former is driving the market demand throughout Europe. One such industry is the automotive industry, of late, major goal for many market players has become to reduce the vehicle weight and improve the efficiency of the vehicle. Engineering plastics provides a robust solution to this problem at a relatively cheaper cost. Another area where engineered plastics is used is the electronics sector. Engineered plastics is also used for the manufacturing of various equipment in the food and beverage industry. Increasing usage of plastics and lightweight material in the Aerospace industry is also a driving factor for engineered plastics market in the European region.
The environmental effects of plastics are very well known, as a result of this, various governments have instructed the industries to decrease their consumption of plastic and come up with alternate solutions that are environment friendly. For achieving the goal of lighter products, industries are turning towards composites in place of engineered plastic, and hence the growth gets thwarted in this respect.
On the basis of Type
On the basis of Application
In the European region, the automotive sector has increasingly used engineered plastic for their vehicles. The environment-friendly vehicles have increased the demand for bio-based plastics and composites. A lot of emphases has been laid on the recycling of plastic and thus the same has been utilized in the manufacturing of various components of a vehicle. The demand for a lightweight material that provides longevity is on the rise in the European region. This material is used exhaustively in the energy sector and with the shift of attention towards the renewable power sector, the growth opportunities for the engineering plastics industry is immense.
Use of thermoplastics such as PET has increased. These materials are known for their excellent melt flow characteristics and are therefore used in various mechanical and electrical industries. They are also known to offer superior strength and recyclability.
The German aerospace industry has shown tremendous growth in the past decade and it has triggered the demand for engineered plastics. Several components in the industry make use of these plastics. In addition to this, Germany is also the leading consumer of plastic materials in Europe. This provides ample of growth opportunities to the industry.
