Saudi Arabia Elastomer Market

An elastomer is a polymer with Low Young’s modulus, high yield strain, weak intermolecular forces and viscoelasticity compared with other materials. Elastomer is majorly used for adhesives, seals and molded flexible parts across automotive, electrical, building & construction and consumer goods market. Elastomers are cost-effective polymers that provide exceptional aesthetic appearance and support in improving the mechanical properties of materials by enhancing the permeability as well as thermal and chemical resistance. Elastomers may be thermosets or thermoplastic, called thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs). Thermoplastic elastomers are rubber-like compounds that offer superior electrical properties coupled with excellent toughness, flexibility, and surface aesthetics. Elastomers are primarily use in a variety of applications in different market segments such as automotive, electrical, appliances, building & construction and consumer goods.

Major factors such as growth in the automobile segment and infrastructure projects in the area positively impacting the growth of the market. In addition, introduction of cutting edge designed elastomers and increased usage of elastomer products in medical areas are also positively impacting the growth of the market. Government investments in infrastructure and usage of the thermoplastic elastomer in the medical area are also anticipated to boost the market growth. However, Fluctuation in raw material prices are expected to hamper the growth of the market.

Saudi Arabia elastomer market is expected to show substantial growth potential due to growing demand for automobile spare parts and expansion of several industries such as construction, electronics sectors. Product launches and positive manufacturing outlook is certainly increasing the demand of elastomers in Saudi Arabia in the upcoming few years. Furthermore, low-temperature flexibility, bio-base, tensile strength, fungus and fluid resistance characteristics of elastomer will increase the demand for elastomer in the automobile and electronics industry. Also, Innovative products such as bio-based thermoplastic elastomers that allow the faster application of elastomers in the various industries are anticipated to spur the market growth.
