The polyethylene pipes market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $9.31 billion in 2023 to $9.9 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.3%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to several factors, including infrastructure development projects, an increase in construction activities, the replacement of aging pipelines, initiatives focused on water conservation, and the adoption of cost-effective materials.
The polyethylene pipes market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $12.65 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.3%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to various factors, including the expansion of gas distribution networks, the implementation of renewable energy projects, growing urbanization and infrastructure needs, increased attention to water and wastewater management, and a global push for the usage of plastic pipes. Key trends expected during this period include a heightened focus on renewable energy projects, an emphasis on leak detection and prevention in distribution networks, increased investments in research and development, and the integration of advanced technologies in the industry.
The increasing focus on wastewater treatment and water infrastructure is set to drive the demand in the polyethylene pipes market. Wastewater treatment and water infrastructure involve the processes aimed at transforming wastewater into environmentally safe water. Polyethylene pipes are particularly favored for drainage in residential sewage treatment projects due to their attributes such as high manufacturing capacity, smooth surface walls, flexible connections, minimal leakage, portability, simplicity in construction, and cost-effectiveness. For example, a report by The International Trade Administration (ITA) in July 2022 highlighted the growth of Australia's water and wastewater treatment sector, reaching an estimated market size of $1,410 million in 2022. This growth is indicative of a sustained commitment to addressing water challenges, with initiatives such as government funding for new projects and the establishment of the $2.5 billion National Water Grid Fund. Consequently, the increasing focus on wastewater treatment and water infrastructure is expected to propel the growth of the polyethylene pipes market.
The surge in demand for polyethylene pipes is closely tied to the rise in residential construction projects. Residential construction projects encompass the planning, design, and construction of housing units for individuals or families. The polyethylene pipes market plays a crucial role in supporting the growth of residential construction by providing durable and efficient piping solutions essential for modern infrastructure development. In October 2021, a report by Oxford Economics projected a 42% growth in global construction output, reaching $15.2 trillion by 2030, with a significant contribution from a surge in residential construction projects. North America and Western Europe are expected to experience notable growth, with North America anticipating a 32% increase, adding $580 billion by 2030, and Western Europe forecasted to grow by 23%, reaching a construction output of $2.5 trillion in 2030. Therefore, the increasing demand for polyethylene pipes is intricately linked to the rise in residential construction projects, driving the overall growth of the polyethylene pipes market.
Technological innovation stands out as a key trend gaining traction in the polyethylene pipes market. Leading players in this sector are strategically focusing on technological advancements to maintain their competitiveness. One notable example is SABIC, a Saudi Arabia-based chemical manufacturing company, which introduced groundbreaking technology in September 2021. With the incorporation of BiAx stretching technology alongside polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP), SABIC is enabling the creation of a new generation of lightweight, stronger, and more energy- and cost-efficient pipe systems. The BiAx Pipe technology by SABIC represents a significant advancement, delivering substantial improvements in various performance criteria for polyethylene pipes.
Prominent companies in the polyethylene pipes market are directing their efforts towards introducing innovative products, such as reinforced thermoplastic pipe technology, offering a superior option both economically and environmentally. Reinforced thermoplastic pipe technology involves utilizing thermoplastic materials fortified with structural reinforcements to develop a durable and corrosion-resistant piping system suitable for diverse industrial applications. As an illustration, in July 2023, Baker Hughes, a US-based energy technology company, launched PythonPipe featuring advanced co-extruded liner technology. PythonPipe ensures enhanced durability and reduced permeability, providing a cost-effective and environmentally sustainable alternative in the polyethylene pipes market. Boasting up to 60% faster installation, one-fifth the cost of comparable steel, and a 75% reduction in carbon emissions, PythonPipe addresses various market needs, presenting an appealing solution for companies seeking durable and eco-friendly options.
