Low Profile Additives Market Size is Predicted to Witness 5.2% CAGR till 2030

[sara James]

The global Low Profile Additives Market size is anticipated to reach USD 1.24 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 5.2% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Rapid growth of the end-use industries, such as construction, automotive, and electronics, is expected to drive product demand. Moreover, rising demand for shrink & bulk molding compounds (SMCs/BMCs) pultruded plastics and resin transfer molding (RTM) products in automobiles as well as construction and infrastructural activities is likely to propel product demand in coming years. Products, such as polyvinyl acetate (PVAc), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polystyrene (PS), and high-density polyethylene (HDPE), are used in a variety of applications, such as sheet and bulk molding compounds, pultrusion, and RTM.

Growing end-use industries around the world, particularly in emerging nations, are likely to fuel industry expansion. Key companies maintain a high market competition with the implementation of various strategic initiatives, such as new polymer launch, polymerion expansion, and mergers & acquisitions. For instance, in October 2023, Schaeffler Technologies AG & Co. KG acquired Aerosint SA from Desktop Metal in the U.S., bolstering its market position in additive manufacturing technologies. The new company, Schaeffler Aerosint SA, will be brought into the Schaeffler Group as a new location for Schaeffler Special Machinery.

Moreover, rapidly expanding automotive industry is expected to be a major factor driving the industry growth. Growing demand for sheet molded compounds from the automotive industry, on account of their low weight and surface finish, is anticipated to drive the demand for low profile additives. The demand for sheet molded parts has been increasing due to their application in outer shells of passenger vehicles as they are lightweight and easy to produce. Moreover, sheet molding is economically viable. Producers can reduce expenses in all aspects of the production, such as labor and waste. Such factors are anticipated to have a positive impact on market growth.
