Rising demand from the packaging and automotive industries: The market for high-density polyethylene resins is experiencing an increase in demand from both sectors. This is due to the hardness, chemical resistance, and heat resistance of HDPE resins.

To secure the items in the warehouse and logistics, HDPE is often utilised in films. Given the rising population's increased use of packaging films, it is anticipated that HDPE resin's thin-film applications would increase over the coming years. Food packaging will be in greater demand as a result of the requirement for high-quality, multilayer barriers to increase product shelf life and reduce food waste. High-density polyethylene pipe demand is anticipated to increase as a result of the booming construction sector, particularly in China and the US.

With a revenue share of more than 37%, the Asia Pacific region was the largest regional market in 2021. Over the course of the prediction, the region is anticipated to maintain its supremacy. This is due to rising product demand from numerous end-use sectors, including electrical & electronics, automotive, packaging, and construction. Due to growing consumer expenditure on grooming items including skincare creams and lotions, the personal care business in the Asia Pacific has experienced tremendous expansion. Growing disposable income and increasing awareness of beauty products made with natural components are expected to fuel demand for cosmetics in this region and increase product consumption over the forecast period.
