Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) Market to Reach 32.3 Million Tonnes by 2025

Polyethylene, by far, is the most popular thermoplastic, which is classified based on the densities of its grades. Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) is the most common form of polyethylene, which was also the first grade of polyethylene to be produced on a commercial scale. LDPE is produced from polymerisation of the monomer ethylene at high pressures. LDPE finds major application in the manufacturing of film & sheets and coatings, which are utilised primarily in the packaging and construction industry.

Market Dynamics

LDPE is a form of polyethylene possessing lower density as compared to other grades of polyethylene. Molecules of LDPE are not packed tightly and their branching is high. These properties make LDPE suitable for applications such as film & sheets, extrusion coating, injection moulding, etc. High demand for film & sheets and coatings for general packaging, liquid packaging, paper coating and other coating applications, in turn, is leading to the rise in demand for LDPE worldwide. Besides, packaging plays a crucial role in the retail industry. With the retail industry, especially the e-retail industry, growing at a significant rate, demand of LDPE for packaging purpose is also expected to boost up in these industries.

Growing urbanisation and construction industry is also fuelling the demand for LDPE in the global market. Several house-hold goods, such as general purpose containers, kitchen products, bathroom products, etc., are manufactured using LDPE, through the injection moulding process. Growing population and GDP, are further propelling the demand for LDPE worldwide.

Currently, crude oil feedstock prices are low. This is driving the market players, especially in Europe and Asia, to increase LDPE production in order to gain low raw material cost benefits. As a result, the LDPE market is expected to grow, not only from the demand side, but also from the supply side, over the forecast period.
