Automotive Sector to Propel Synthetic Rubber Market
The Synthetic Rubber Market share will witness an upward trajectory on the back of surging demand for anti-slip properties across tire applications, including door & window profiles, flooring, O-rings & gaskets, hoses and belts. The automotive sector is probably going to exhibit traction for synthetic rubber following the need for abrasion and temperature resistance. it’s worth noting that artificial rubber has gained an uptick owing to its suitability for applications in environments exposed to high temperatures, greases, chemicals and oxidizing compounds.
However, potential health issues, including shortness of breath, asthma and stroke, could challenge industry players vying to spice up their portfolios.
The Synthetic Rubber Market size was pegged at USD 28.89 billion in 2021. The market is anticipated to rise from USD 29.86 billion in 2022 to USD 41.73 billion by 2029 at a 4.9% CAGR during the forecast period. Fortune Business Insights™ has elucidated these insights in its latest research report, titled, “Synthetic Rubber Market, 2022-2029.”
According to the study, artificial elastomer has gained an uptick following the necessity for high tensile strength, recyclability and resistance to abrasion and swelling. Growing investments in research & development activities and demand from construction, aerospace, and construction sectors will augur well for the business outlook. Industry players expect the following period to provide promising growth opportunities with rising demand from the end-users.
COVID-19 Impact
Manufacturing Plant Shutdown Challenged Stakeholders to Expand their Footfall
