The Global Masterbatch Market is estimated to reach USD 12.9 Billion by 2024 at a CAGR of 5.2%.
Masterbatch is a solid product in which additives or pigments are optimally dispersed at a high concentration in carrier materials. Masterbatch are a type of additives which are produced in black, white, and various other colors. These variations in color additives are used to combine and form the desired color in target applications. Plastic is devoid of color and masterbatch is used to impart color and strengthen the properties of plastics in various applications. Masterbatch has become an integral part of polymer and aplastic manufacturing. Cost-effective, easy to use, less amount of waste, and similar other properties are some of the benefits offered by the masterbatch.
Market Drivers:
Plastic is being used in the design and manufacturing of automotive vehicles. It has become more essential with growing stringent regulation and changing consumer demand for lighter, more affordable, and fuel-efficient vehicles. Fuel efficiency has become a vital characteristic in the automotive industry owing to rising fuel prices and stringent government regulations for lower gas emissions. However, a masterbatch is used for the manufacturing of plastic products which are been used in the manufacturing of automotive vehicles.
Thus, the rising consumption of plastics in the automotive industry is expected to surge the demand for masterbatch market growth during the forecast period.
Color and white masterbatch are commonly used in the packaging industry. Masterbatch is used in packaging plastics to enhance demand through attractive product packaging. This is achieved by using various types of custom colored masterbatch. Owing to the stringent regulations associated with health and safety, a masterbatch is used for both rigid as well as flexible packaging of food and beverage considering the food packaging grades. Additionally, bright colors of packaging materials help to achieve increased consumer attention in the department store shelves, thus promoting the product usage in the respective industry. Furthermore, increasing dependency on packaged food products and increasing disposable incomes are other factors boosting the market growth.
Hence, the consumption of plastics in the packaging industry is one of the factors expected to surge product demand during the forecast period.
Market Restraints:
Masterbatch is been used in various end-use industries such as automotive, construction, packaging, agriculture, and amongst others. Market players with enhanced coloring are making an impression on the end-use industries. With the growth, a strong challenge of local players coming with the availability of lower quality and cheaper products is expected to hinder the growth of the product market during the forecast period.
