The global wood plastic composite market is
expected to reach USD 9.77 billion by 2024, according to a new report by Grand
View Research, Inc. Increasing demand for wood plastic composites in
construction industry particularly in decking, fencing, and molding &
siding applications is expected to be the key driver for the market growth.
Superior mechanical strength, low maintenance and weight reduction offered by
these products are expected to propel demand in the construction industry over
the next eight years.
Rising automakers focus towards
making every automotive part biodegradable, and recyclable is expected to open
new avenues for the material over the next eight years. The product is used in
door panels, seat cushions, cabin linings, backrests, and dashboards. The most
commonly used wood species for commercial wood plastic composite products
include maple, oak, and pine. Product cost and regional availability of raw
material are expected to be a key factor for wood plastic composites
manufacturers over the projected period.
Rising application scope for wood
plastic composites for manufacturing various other products including musical
instruments, shoe soles, toys, and trays is expected to have a positive impact
on the market growth. Growing demand for bio-plastics in niche applications
such as household electronics and edge protection for packaging is expected to
propel demand over the projected period.
