the impact of drivers, restraints, and macro indicators on the global and
regional acrylonitrile butadiene styrene market over the short term as well as the long term. The report is a comprehensive presentation of trends, forecasts, and
dollar values of the global acrylonitrile butadiene styrene market. According
to the report, the global acrylonitrile butadiene styrene market is projected
to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% over the forecast period of 2020-2026.
ABS
(Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) is a low-cost engineering thermoplastic that
is easily machined, fabricated, and thermoformed. It is used as a structural plastic for several applications
in automotive components, computer cabinets, machine components, housing,
and construction. The current concerns over the spread of coronavirus are
expected to have a major impact on the growth of the acrylonitrile butadiene styrene
market. The COVID-19 outbreak's rapid development worldwide has led to severe
implications for most manufacturers of electronics and electrical products,
automobiles, and construction equipment. The demand as well as the supply side
is affected due to the pandemic which has reduced the sales of
acrylonitrile butadiene styrene.
Further, the current pandemic has led
to a sudden pause to manufacturing activities across the world, affecting the
demand for raw materials from production & processing units. Nevertheless, by
the mid-term of 2021, the industry is expected to witness stability due to
strong intervention from several country governments to boost the economy.
During this period, several countries will also see the rise of several medium
and small-scale industries, which in turn, will propel the demand for ABS. The
industry is also likely to recover over the forecast period, given the rising
demand in automobiles, auto components, and consumer goods.
The global acrylonitrile butadiene styrene market is expected to
be driven by growing demand from the automobile and consumer appliances industries.
Rapid economic growth and increasing purchasing power of the consumer in emerging
countries such as China, India, and Brazil are expected to drive the demand for
consumer appliances and automobiles sector which in turn propel the demand of the ABS market. ABS offers a good balance of impact, heat, chemical and abrasion
resistance, dimensional stability, tensile strength, and surface hardness. The
favorable properties of ABS, such as fire-retardance, heat-resistance, and
toughness increase its uses in automotive parts, pipes, industrial appliances,
machines, and telephone components. The global rise in the demand for lightweight
and fuel-efficient auto components is on the rise among the middle class and
upper-middle-class families, which in turn is expected to escalate the demand
of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene. However, the availability of other
alternatives for ABS may restrain the growth of the global market significantly.
Furthermore, rapid technological advancements and increasing adoption of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene over conventional materials in the automobile
industry offer lucrative opportunities for the growth of the ABS market in the
forecast period.
Among the regions, Asia Pacific
holds a major share in the global acrylonitrile butadiene styrene market.
Factors such as rapid economic development, and rising demand from end user
industries such as automobiles, electrical and electronic appliances, consumer
goods, and construction equipment drive the growth of the Asia Pacific
acrylonitrile butadiene styrene market. North America is anticipated to hold
the second-largest share owing to rapid industrialization and the growing purchasing
power of consumers in this region. The acrylonitrile butadiene styrene market in
this region is anticipated to expand at a significant growth rate during the
forecast period due to the growth of the automotive and electronic industry.
