Report Overview
The world market size for silicone elastomers is forecast to increase 3.3% per year to nearly 1.4 million metric tons in 2028, with value demand reaching $14.1 billion. After a period of decelerating or declining demand, this increase in demand is supported by accelerating construction and manufacturing activity, improved motor vehicle production, and normalizing prices after a period of restraint due to pandemic-related issues.
This report provides an overview of historical and regional market trends, demand by region, global production, international trade, supply issues, and capacity expansion. The report also covers demand by type (HCR/HTV, RTV, and LSR), function, leading and fastest-growing country markets, pricing trends, and market share of leading producers. Factors impacting silicone elastomer demand are discussed, such as the global construction and manufacturing outlook, regulatory considerations, sustainability initiatives, health and safety concerns, and key technology trends like 3D printing and Industry 4.0. The markets section analyzes demand across various sectors, including construction, transportation, electrical equipment, electronic products, medical and healthcare, chemicals, personal care, and other markets. Regional analyses are provided for North America, Central & South America, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, Asia/Pacific, and Africa/Mideast, detailing market size, historical trends, and demand by market for each region and key countries within them. The appendix includes the scope, definitions, methodology, sources, associations, related studies, country lists by region, and macroeconomic assumptions.
