Plastics for Electric Vehicle Market Projected to reach $2,621 million by 2025
The Plastic for Electric Vehicle Market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 26.9% to reach a market size of USD 2,621million by 2025 from 797 million in 2020. The rising trend of weight reduction in PHEV/ HEV and BEV is estimated to increase the demand of high performance plastics. Additionally, the interior application is estimated to account for majority of plastic demand in an electric vehicle and the trend is projected to continue during the forecast period.
“Polyurethane (PU) to
have the largest market value among other types of plastics.”
Polyurethane materials are widely used by car manufacturers
which offers benefits in terms of comfort, safety, lightweight and longevity
with design freedom. Polyurethane (PU) is a strong and light material that
helps designers and manufacturers design seating that can be assembled,
disassembled and recycled. Also, polyurethane is used in interior parts
manufacturing such as dashboard, and as TPU in door handles and instrument
panels has reduced the weight of vehicles. Also, high versatility and easy mold
ability of the product enables the automobile manufacturers to produce various
shapes and design for the vehicles. Polyurethane are most durable and can be
recycled as well and hence find considerable adoption in electric vehicles.

“Lighting and electric
wiring is the fastest growing market by application”
Electric components are being increasingly used in electric
cars, which have increased the need for wires, cables, and connectors. The
onboard chargers are used to convert AC into DC while charging. These chargers
work at voltage levels that help to avoid overheating. Connectors, cables, and
hoses are used to supply power from the battery to other parts of the electric
car. These components should sustain the high temperature arising from the
battery during its charging or use. Hence, plastics are suitable material for
these components as they can resist high temperatures and offer electrical
insulation. Components made of polymers such as ABS, polycarbonate, PBT, and
polyamide are preferred. In Europe, due to increase in addition of advanced
safety features, the electronic components such as circuits, sensors etc.
associated with it add more electronic components which in turn increases the
use of plastic in electric vehicle. Also, front and rear headlamp wiring,
rear-view camera modules and 360-degree camera (in some cases) likely to have crucial
role in market growth. Thus, demand is estimated to increase for plastics
components which are used to make connectors, lamp housings components and
electrical and electronic components required for electric vehicle.
“Asia is expected to hold the largest market size in plastics for electric vehicle market during the forecast period”
Asia is estimated to account for the largest share of the
plastics for electric vehicle market. The high sales of electric vehicle in
this region is the main driving factor for the growth of the plastics for
electric vehicle market. Also, the presence of major plastic suppliers and
rising government mandates to promote the adoption of electric vehice are
expected to drive the market. Furthermore, the development of manufacturing
facilities by major electric vehicle OEMs is likely to create opportunities for
plastic suppliers and thereby increasing the demand for plastic for electrc
vehicle during the forecast period.
Key Market Players:
The plastics for electric vehicle market is dominated by
globally established players namely BASF (Germany), SABIC (Saudi Arabia), Dow
(US), Lyondellbasell Industries Holdings B.V (Netherlands), DuPont de Nemours,
Inc.(US), Covestro (Germany), Solvay (Belgium), LANXESS (Germany), LG Chem (South
Korea), Asahi Kasei (Japan).
