H1 2022: In 2022, the global demand of Polyolefin Elastomers (POE) market reached around 1500 thousand tonnes with a growth of 7.44 % in comparison to 2021. In May 2022, Wanhua Chemical announced about development of its No 2 cracker and its derivative plant situated in Yantai. The plant is worth USD 2.5 billion and with an annual capacity of 1.2 million tonnes capacity. The plant comprises of two POE units, a low density polyethylene (LDPE) unit, one butadiene (BD unit, a cracked gasoline hydrogenation unit, and an aromatic extraction unit. The two POE units will have total a production capacity of total 200 thousand tonnes per annum. The key manufacturers in H1 2022 were Dow Chemical Company, SCG-Dow Group, and Mitsui Elastomers Singapore Pte Ltd. Although, Dow Chemical Company was leading as the producer with a production capacity of roughly 40% in H1 2022. Based on region, APAC was the leading market consumer, with a share of approximately 50%. The demand for POE was increased as consumption levels, which slumped in the H1 2022 have resumed their previous robustness. As crude oil prices rose internationally, upstream olefin costs remained stable, and refiners maintained rising prices for olefins and aromatics. However, in Europe with the reduction in LNG supply, the prices of LNG and crude oil rose exponentially, and resulted in an increased price of POE.
H2 2022: The market sentiments have improved in H2 compared to H1 2022. Wanhua Chemical received approval from Shandong provincial development and reform commission in H2 2022, and it is estimated that the plant will be commissioned in 2024. The cracker will use ethane and naphtha as raw materials, in order to create synergies with Wanhua's existing No. 1 propane-based cracker while reducing the risk of commodity price fluctuations. Asia Pacific continued to maintain similar behavior as in H1 2022 in terms of consumption and stayed as the key consumer of POE. Asia pacific witnessed a lower price in response to sufficient demand and high margin deterioration. Prices dropped as a result of decreased marginal costs from exporting countries like South Korea and Thailand. The decrease in freight costs in the Asia Pacific region has an impact on exports to foreign markets as well. However, in North America, prices of polyolefin elastomers in the market were lowered due to fluctuating demand from the automotive industry and uses by the agricultural sector. The economic growth of the automobile industry had mainly the expansion of the polyolefin elastomer market, making this sector the most lucrative in the Asia Pacific region Increased auto production is driving up demand for polyolefin elastomers because these materials are used to make interior and exterior vehicle components like bumpers.
The global Polyolefin Elastomers (POE) market has reached around 1500 thousand tonnes in 2022 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.49% during the forecast period until 2035. In a recent announcement, Wanhua Chemical announced that it has gained approval for a No 2 cracker with an annual capacity of 1.2 million tonnes capacity with two POE units with an annual capacity of 200,000 tonnes per unit.
POEs standout out for their high impact, toughness, low density, and mechanical properties. These resins can be used on their own to create molded or extruded parts with high flexibility and softness. They are often used in compounding applications where they enhance the flexibility of polypropylene or polyethylene-based compounds. This material is tough yet flexible making them one of the most popular materials used in healthcare equipment, adhesives, shoes, foams, cable and wire coatings, films, and vehicle exteriors and interiors.
The rising demand for POE is due to their amazing properties like flexibility, durability, toughness, and resistance to chemicals, results in their applications in multiple industries. The healthcare and automobile sectors are fast-growing sectors and in future will be requiring higher volume of durable and flexible materials for the manufacture needles, tubes, masks, and bags, foam and more. POE is expected to see a far stretch in its other applications such as manufacturing household goods and foam in the forecast years resulting in expansion of the global Polyolefin Elastomers (POE) market. The estimated market size for 2035 is 3400 thousand tonnes.
Based on region, Asia Pacific is consuming the maximum POE across all the regions around the globe. The POE demand by Asia Pacific is expected to grow at a high rate in the forecast period. This is due to numerous industrial applications of POE such as for manufacturing automobile components and foam. Moreover, North America is also the prominent consumer of POE and is likely to cause a higher demand for POE with the growing demand from the electronic industry.
Based on the end-user industry, the POE market is segmented into different sectors that include automotive, foam, wire & cable, household goods, packaging, and others. However, Automotive industry is the biggest end-user market of POE, holding a share of approximately 50% of global POE market expected to dominate the market in the forecast period as well. Another leading consumer of POE is the Foam industry, consuming significant volume of the Global POE market. Moreover, wire & cable, household goods also hold noticeable shares in the POE market.
Major players for Global POE production are LG Chem, Dow Chemical Company SCG-Dow Group, Mitsui Elastomers Singapore Pte Ltd, ExxonMobil Chemical Co, SSNC (Korea Nexlene Ltd), Wanhua Chemical Group Co., Ltd, Sadara Chemical Company, and others.
