Market
Synopsis
Metallocene
polyethylene is the special class of polyethylene produced using metallocene
catalyst usually in the presence of copolymers. Metallocene polyethylene has
narrow, uniform composition, and molecular weight distribution. It shows
superior mechanical properties such as superior damage & puncture
resistance, superior stiffness & toughness, good processability, good
shrink characteristics, excellent optical properties, and low welding &
sealing temperatures over conventional polyethylene produced using
Ziegler-Natta catalyst.
Growing
packaging industry due to rise in the demand for packaging materials across the
globe is the key driver to the growth of the global metallocene polyethylene
products over the forecast period. Additionally, growing market for injection
molded products such as food containers, agriculture products, toys, garbage
receptacles, plumbing products, and medical products are also attributed to the
growth of the market during the forecast period. Growing food & beverage
industry is likely to drive the demand for extrusion coated products including
milk packaging, deep freeze packaging, and others. Therefore, it is
expected to impact the global metallocene polyethylene products
positively during the forecast period. Furthermore, metallocene polyethylene
resins are largely substituting PVC and EVA as a raw material for manufacturing
films.
The
global market for metallocene polyethylene is lucrative and is expected to
witness rising growth owing to the expansion, collaborations, and partnerships
strategies adopted by key players. For instance,
India’s Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) has announced to
restructure and expand its polyethylene (PE) plant by adopting the INEOS
technology to manufacture metallocene linear low-density polyethylene
(m-LLDPE). The expansion project is estimated to produce around 120,000
tonnes/year of m-LLDPE at their gas-based petrochemical complex at Nagothane
in Maharashtra State.
However,
rising concerns regarding the disposal of plastic films & products are
likely to restrain the growth of the global metallocene polyethylene market
during the assessment period 2018-2023.

Regional
Analysis
The
global metallocene polyethylene market is segmented into five regions namely
Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East and
Africa.
Asia
Pacific is expected to be the largest and the fastest growing market for
metallocene polyethylene during the forecast period. A significant demand for
packaging films in wrapping as well as in protective applications across
different end-use industries such as food & beverage, automotive, building
& construction, agriculture, healthcare, and others are likely to
contribute majorly to the market growth during the forecast period.
North
America is expected to be the second-largest market for metallocene
polyethylene during the forecast period. A significant demand for packaging
films, injection molded products, and extrusion coated products from end-use
industries such as building & renovation industries, food & beverage,
healthcare industry, and other industries are expected to drive the demand for
metallocene polyethylene during the forecast period.
Europe
is expected to be another major market for metallocene polyethylene during the
forecast period. High demand for injection molded products and films from the
automotive and microelectronics industry is expected to boost the market growth
during the forecast period.
Latin America and the Middle East & Africa are expected to show a
sluggish growth during the forecast period due to the slow economic development
and stringent regulations respectively.
