India EPDM Comprehensive Techno-Commercial Market Analysis and Forecast, 2013-2030

The demand for ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) in India stood at 43 KTPA in 2018 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of over 6.7% during 2019-2030 to reach 106 KTPA by 2030. The high demand for EPDM across various sectors such as building & construction, automotive, tires and tubes, wires & cables, lubricant additives, plastic modification, etc. owing to its various useful properties which include resistance to atmospheric ageing, abrasives and tearing, polar solvents like water, acids, alkalies, phosphate esters, etc.

Moreover, EPDM has good electrical resistivity which is expected to further propel its demand across India. Additionally, the increasing usage of EPDM in various applications like automotive weather-stripping and seals, glass-run channel, radiator, garden and appliance hose, tubing, belts, electrical insulation, roofing membrane, roof coating, RV roof, rubber mechanical goods, plastic impact modification, thermoplastic vulcanizates, motor oil additive applications, window spacers, hydraulic brake systems etc., is set to further steer growth in the Indian EPDM market during the forecast period.

Some of the major players operating in the country’s EPDM market are Exxon Mobil Corporation, DowDuPont Inc., Mitsui Chemicals, JSR Corporation, etc.

To extract data for the Indian EPDM market, primary research surveys were conducted with EPDM manufacturers, suppliers, distributors, wholesalers and end-users. While interviewing, the respondents were also inquired about their competitors. Through this technique, manufacturers that could not be identified due to the limitations of secondary research could be included. Moreover, various end-user segments were anaylsed and projected a positive outlook for the country’s EPDM market over the coming years.

The demand for EPDM in India is calculated by analyzing the historical data and demand forecast which was carried out by considering development in end-use industries. These values are sourced from industry experts and company representatives and externally validated through analyzing historical sales data of respective manufacturers to arrive at the overall market size. Various secondary sources such as company websites, association reports, annual reports, etc., were also studied.

Key Target Audience:

• EPDM manufacturers and other stakeholders
  
• Organizations, forums and alliances related to EPDM distribution
  
• Government bodies such as regulating authorities and policy makers
  
• Market research organizations and consulting companies
  

The study is useful in providing answers to several critical questions that are important for industry stakeholders, such as EPDM manufacturers, distributors and policymakers. The report also provides useful insights about which market segments should be targeted over the coming years to strategize investments and capitalize on growth opportunities.
