Heavy Gauge and Thin Gauge Thermoformed Plastics Market: Current Analysis and Forecast (2021-2027)
Heavy Gauge and Thin Gauge Thermoformed Plastics Market is anticipated to display a CAGR of around 5% over the forecast period (2021-2027). The thermoforming process includes the assimilation of plastic sheets, after which they are heated so as to convert them into a flexible form that can be molded into the desired shape which varies based on the end-use application. Heavy and thin gauge thermoformed plastics have wide applications in food & agriculture packaging, pharmaceutical industry, electronics & electrical appliance packaging, automotive parts packaging, etc. The increasing demand for thermoformed plastics from the food packaging and pharmaceutical packaging sectors, etc. would be a key factor driving the market growth over the forecast period. However, compliance with stringent regulations of thermoformed plastics manufacturers would hamper the market growth.
Insights Presented in the Report
“Amongst plastic type, polypropylene segment holds the major share.”
Based on plastic type, heavy gauge and thin gauge thermoformed plastics market is divided into polypropylene, polystyrene, polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene, poly vinyl chloride, bioplastics, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, and others. Among all, polypropylene holds a lucrative market share due to its high melting point, low water absorption capacity, high flexibility, and it is highly resistant to chemicals. Furter, it is a thermoplastic polymer that is one of the most widely used plastics worldwide due to its low manufacturing cost.
“Amongst thermoforming type, vacuum forming held lucrative market share in 2020.”
Based on thermoforming type, heavy gauge and thin gauge thermoformed plastics market in divided into vacuum, mechanical, and pressure forming. Among all, vacuum forming holds considerable market share as it is the simplest method of polypropylene thermoforming which is widely used type of thermoformed plastic. Once the plastic is heated and fitted around the custom tool, a high-powered vacuum removes air and draws the plastic more tightly against the tool. This method is best for plastic components that don’t require sharp edges, defined corners, or intricate details, such as car dashboards and shipping trays.
“Asia Pacific represents as the prominent region in the Heavy Gauge and Thin Gauge Thermoformed Plastics Market.”
For a better understanding of the market adoption of heavy gauge and thin gauge thermoformed plastics, the market is analyzed based on its worldwide presence in the countries such as North America (United States, Canada, and Rest of North America), Europe (Germany, France, Spain, Italy, United Kingdom, and Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, Japan, India, Australia, and Rest of APAC), and Rest of World. Asia Pacific constitutes the prominent market in the industry in 2020 owing to rising automobile industry leading to high production of vehicles. High production of vehicles would lead to increase in demand for heavy gauge and thin gauge thermoformed plastics for their auto parts production and packaging.
