South Africa Plastic Pipes and Fittings Industry Revenue is expected to Reach ZAR 5.2 Billion by the year ending 2023: Ken Research

• Water distribution and sewage disposal are the 2 particular areas where the country can see a growing demand for PVC and HDPE pipes.
• Huge potential lies in the replacement of old age piping infrastructure as SAPPMA i.e. the Southern African Plastic Pipe Manufacturers Association has been constantly issuing severe warnings about an unavoidable water crisis owing to the fact that the replacement of old water pipes around the country is long overdue.
• In terms of end user applications, wide availability of natural gas in the near future will further drive the demand for plastic pipes and fittings in South Africa.
• Over the long term, mining and oil and gas sector is anticipated to shift from HDPE pipes to O-PVC pipes and products owing to better quality and cost savings.

South Africa plastic pipes and fittings market demand is highly correlated with the investment done by the government towards construction of dwellings, infrastructure development, agriculture as well as mining activities and others. Water distribution, waste disposal and irrigation and other applications are dependent on pipelines to efficiently function. Upgradation of piping networks that have reached their end stage as well as lines that are currently inadequate must be replaced in the near future. All industries rely on well-maintained pipelines to ensure a constant and safe supply of water to businesses, office parks and factories. However, South Africa for several years was observed with aging pipeline infrastructure therefore, incurring huge expenses towards maintenance of these pipes.
Natural Gas Distribution: South Africa’s gas industry has been growing on account of potential global oversupply of shale gas as a result of which, domestic manufacturers of plastic pipes in the country have to ensure that the plastic pipes used in gas pipelines have to be manufactured in accordance with the SAPPMA (Southern African Plastic Pipe Manufacturers Association) stringent specifications and global standards. HDPE pipes are widely used for distribution of natural gas owing to their well-documented inertness to both the external soil environment and to natural gas. The South African gas industry is expected to grow in the near future along with discovery of offshore gas reserves, thereby generating additional demand for HDPE plastic pipes in future.
Technology advancement in South Africa led to the entry of new, cheaper and highly advanced manufacturing technologies for producing plastic pipes such as O-PVC which are better and efficient than the existing HDPE and PVC pipes. Presently, the country lacks in terms of appropriate technology to manufacture O-PVC pipes as only Sizabantu Plastics is the sole provider of O-PVC pipes in the country. However in the upcoming years, O-PVC segment would carry a great potential to grow.
Analysts at Ken Research in their latest publication “South Africa Plastic Pipes and Fittings Market Outlook to 2023 - By PVC – UPVC, MPVC, CPVC, HDPE, and O-PVC; By End User Application (Infrastructure, Bulk Water, Irrigation, Mining and Others); By Organized and Unorganized Segment” believe that the industry has a huge potential to grow if the government spending on infrastructure is increased, aging infrastructure is replaced, investment is made in latest technologies to manufacture quality products and within emerging segments of plastic pipes and fittings such as O-PVC. The market is expected to record a forecasted CAGR of 4.8% during the outlook period 2019-2023.
