BRIC Automotive Plastics Market will reach at a CAGR of 15.4% from 2015-2020

Automotive plastics are used to manufacture various components such as lighting system, seating system, auto carpet and bumper. Versatile properties of plastics such as easy moldability, scratch resistance, thermal stability, impact strength and resistance to abrasion give it an edge over other materials, especially in manufacture of automobile components. Apart from this, reduction in manufacturing cost, durability and toughness of plastics have encouraged automotive manufacturers to increase its application in doors, bumpers, fenders and other automotive components. All these components are used in three major applications, namely, exterior, interior and under bonnet. The BRIC automotive plastics market was valued at US $ 11,244.4 Mn in 2014 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of 15.4% during the forecast period (2015–2020).

Drivers & Trends

The growth of BRIC automotive plastics market is driven by various factors such as growing demand for passenger vehicles, rising export of automotive plastics components and stringent government regulation norms to control vehicular emission. For instance, in India, by the end of 2015, the Bharat stage-IV vehicle emission and fuel quality standards is expected to be implemented in 50 major cities. BS-IV+ is expected to be enforced by 2017. These norms are expected to push automotive manufacturers to produce lightweight vehicles with higher adoption of plastic components. Though the market is promising in terms of return on investment (ROI), patents and regulatory hurdles along with global shift towards bio-based plastic material might pose a challenge to the BRIC automotive plastics market. The BRIC automotive plastics market is highly fragmented with multiple domestic and global leader participants. Recently, the Indian government announced "Automotive Mission Plan (AMP) II, 2016-26" under the Make in India campaign, which is expected to be implemented by mid-2015. This plan focuses on development of auto parks, establishment of advanced automotive training institutes and auto design centres across the country. Additionally, by mid-2016 the proposed plastic park at Dahej, Gujarat is expected to become operational, which would offer tax benefits on exports and imports of plastic materials and capital goods. These factors are collectively driving growth of the BRIC automotive plastics market.
