The new procurement market intelligence report analyzes some of the key drivers and trends responsible for the growth of this market and its sub-segments.

Increase in need for high-performance automobile products

The growing demand for better aesthetics and efficiency drives demand for GMA monomers from the automobile sector. They are used by top manufacturers to reduce the temperature of exhaust systems and engine bays, enhance engine performance and reliability, and achieve rapid cooling of exhaust surfaces. Factors such as growth in global population and surging disposable incomes in both developed and developing countries are expected to increase car sales, which will positively contribute to the growth of the GMA market during the forecast period.

Change in aesthetic preferences of consumers

The rapid changes in consumers’ preferences for products such as home appliances with good aesthetic appeal are driving demand for GMA monomers, as these are extensively used to coat such products. Companies such as Siemens and HP are also making huge investments in research activities to improve the design and aesthetic appeal of their products including laptops, mobile phones, refrigerators, microwave ovens, and electric stoves.

Growth in APAC’s infrastructure requirements

The surge in construction activities in several APAC countries such as China, India, Singapore, Thailand, and Malaysia is fuelling demand for GMA. GMA is a key ingredient in paints, varnishes, adhesives, and other construction-related materials. With continuous growth in the infrastructural development in the APAC, the demand for GMA is likely to increase positively over the next four years.

Increase in adoption of thermoplastics in engineering products

The increasing applications of thermoplastics in components like valves, pumps, level controls, gauges, and specialty pipelines is boosting the demand for GMA monomers, as these monomers are used extensively to coat and protect these components from high temperatures and extreme weather conditions. The growing use of thermoplastics in engineering products is expected to drive the GMA market.
