Research Insights on U.S. Wood Plastic Composite Market Size & Forecast to 2025

Posted by Marsh William on April 26th, 2019

The U.S. wood plastic composite market size is anticipated to reach USD 4.54 billion by 2025 owing to increasing demand from construction sector. Rising awareness regarding properties of wood plastic composites (WPCs) such as better thermal stability, recyclability, and stiffness is expected to propel market growth over the forecast period. Furthermore, rising application scope in landscaping and street constructions due to noise barrier characteristics coupled with booming construction and automotive industries are expected to fuel regional market expansion. Rising application of WPC for manufacturing various consumer goods such as pencils, toys, lipsticks, cups, and high-class packaging is projected to propel demand in near future.

In terms of revenue, polyethylene held larger market share owing to extensive applications in high performance operations such as construction and packaging. Moreover, eco-friendliness of this composite is expected to complement market. Polyvinylchloride is expected to be the fastest growing segment over the forecast period as it is widely used across automotive, furniture, and construction industries. Commercial WPCs used in manufacturing high-end furniture, automotive units for luxurious cars, and other wooden infrastructure, make heavy use of polyvinylchloride as a raw material.                                                                              

Automotive is expected to be the fastest growing application segment in the wood plastic composite market over the forecast period. WPCs are increasingly being used in manufacturing car interiors, door panels, and seat cushions owing to their high machinability. This factor is projected to provide growth opportunity in the forthcoming years. WPC is used in high- and mid-range passenger vehicle manufacturing. Rising demand for lightweight automotive to boost fuel efficiency and to reduce carbon emissions is expected to propel market growth.
