Market Scope
Polyoxymethylene (POM) market 2021 is all set to record a decent CAGR over the forecast period (2021 to 2028), to touch more than USD 7.6 billion by 2028, says MRFR (Market Research Future). We will provide COVID-19 impact analysis with the report, along with all the extensive key developments in the market post the coronavirus disease outbreak.
Top Impacting Factors and Barriers
As an engineering thermoplastic, polyoxymethylene has a number of appealing properties that include excellent strength, high fatigue, high dimensional stability and impact resistance. These properties have boosted the use of POM across several end-use industries, primarily in light weight metal replacing applications. Given the ability to replace metals in various light weight applications, the thermoplastic has successfully penetrated multiple industries such as industrial and transportation. Considering these favorable factors, it can be assumed that the polyoxymethylene market could gain considerable grounds in the following years.
Emerging countries with high growth potential have sparked the interest of various international players, given the escalating demand for polyoxymethylene in a number of sectors. However, the highest consumption of polyoxymethylene has been observed in the electrical electronics sector, where it helps make insulators, capacitors, and other electronic components. As stated above, POM’s application in the transportation industry has been registering significant growth while its use in the food packaging industry is also expected to shoot up notably in subsequent years. More opportunities can emerge in the near future in the form of expanding application scope of POM in sports, construction and furniture industries.
Rigorous research and development activities carried out by major firms in the global industry work favorably for the POM market, since these help explore new applications and also facilitate the introduction of highly innovative products that cater to several end use segments. Product launch seems to be another top favored growth strategy usually picked up by the firms to create brand awareness among consumers. For instance, in October 2020, LG launched its latest swivel screen phone called LG Wing in India. The phone has a secondary screen present at the main screen’s bottom that is coated with Polyoxymethylene/POM, which helps prevent damages or scratches.
