Opportunities for the global flame retardant plastics market to reach $55 billion by 2024


According to a new market report published by Lucintel, the future of the global flame retardant plastics market looks promising with opportunities in the electrical & electronics, building & construction, transportation, wire & cable, pipe & tank, aerospace & defense, and marine industries. The global flame retardant plastics market is expected to reach an estimated $55 billion by 2024 with a CAGR of 4% from 2019 to 2024. The major drivers for this market are stringent government regulation towards fire safety, growing consumption of flame retardant plastics in electrical and electronics market, and increasing demand for halogen free wire and cable market.
In this market, various polymers, such as polyurethane, polyolefin, PVC, ABS, Epoxy, polycarbonate, polyamide, PBT, phenolic, UPR, and vinyl ester and flame retardants additives are used for manufacturing of flame retardant plastics. Lucintel forecasts that polyurethane will remain the largest polymer for flame retardant plastics over the forecast period due to the increasing demand for PU foam in building & construction and transportation industries. The polyolefin is expected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period due to increasing demand halogen free and low smoke wire and cables.
Within this market, flame retardant plastics for wire and cable is expected witness the highest growth during the forecast period due to increasing demand for flame retardant plastic  insulation for underground cables and power cables.
APAC will remain the largest region and it is also expected to witness the highest growth over the over the forecast period due to growth in building and construction activities and increasing vehicle production.

An emerging trend, which has a direct impact on the dynamics of the industry, includes increasing demand for non halogenated polymers. BASF, DowDupont, Sabic, LyondellBasell, Mitsui Chemicals, Sumitomo Chemical, Huntsman, Hexion, and Momentive are among the major flame retardant plastics manufacturers.
