Product Code: 2362
The global masterbatch market is anticipated to attain robust growth through 2032 owing to the surging use of plastic in place of metals in the automotive industry.
Leading organizations in the industry are focusing on overseas expansion with the help of partnerships and acquisitions. To cater to the growing demand across the world, the key market players are also increasing their product output.
The masterbatch market has been divided in terms of type, end-user, and region.
Based on type, the additive segment is slated to grow at more than 5% CAGR from 2023 to 2032. Additive masterbatches are used to impart specific performance properties to plastic components. Flame retardants, antioxidants, heat stabilizers, stiffening agents, anti-microbial solutions, corrosion inhibitors, optical brighteners, anti-fogging agents, and other options are among some of the prominent additive masterbatches. These materials contribute to the improved quality, strength, appearance, and feel of end products in a variety of end-use sectors.
They are frequently used in conjunction with black, white, and/or color masterbatches to impart enhanced physical properties as well as the desired colors. Additive masterbatches can also be used to make packaging boxes for the food industry in order to extend the shelf life of perishable items.
With respect to end-user, the automotive segment is anticipated to attain high gains over the review years. In 2022, the automotive sector held the third-highest market share and generated over $2 billion in sales. The industry is undergoing a major shift as plastics are replacing metal components in vehicles to reduce their weight and increase the fuel efficiency. Masterbatches are frequently used to give color and essential performance attributes to engineering plastics, which are utilized in the interior, exterior, and under-the-hood applications.
From the regional perspective, the North America masterbatch market is poised to grow at more than 4.5% CAGR from 2023 to 2032. The majority of the region's plastic production and conversion takes place in the United States, where a number of businesses produce finished plastic goods for various end-user industries both inside and outside of the nation. The demand for masterbatch in the region is set to witness positive expansion driven by the development in the construction and automotive industry within the regional market.
The competitive landscape within the masterbatch market is highly established. Some of the key market players in the industry include Cabot Corporation, Clariant AG, Ampacet Corporation, PolyOne, RTP Company, Tosaf Group, Plastika Kritis S.A., Hubron International, A. Schulman, Inc. (LyondellBasell), Penn Color, Inc., Plastiblends, and more.
