This study presents a comprehensive analysis of polymers in the global electrical and electronics equipment (EEE) sector, with a detailed focus on regional segmentation, revenue, and volume metrics from 2020 to 2030. By examining historical data and projecting future trends, the study offers a seven-year forecast from 2024 to 2030, with 2023 as the base year.

Segmentation:
By Polymer: Commodity, engineering, and high-performance polymers
By End use: Consumer electronics, consumer goods, wires and cables, industrial, and other end use cases, such as medical devices, 3D printers, lighting, and home security and safety
By Region: Americas; Europe; Asia-Pacific (APAC); and Middle East, Africa, and South Asia (MEASA).

The Americas, led by the United States, is a significant market for polymers in the EEE sector. The region's demand is driven by the presence of major consumer electronics and household appliance manufacturers, as well as a robust telecommunications infrastructure. Europe is a mature market for polymers in the EEE sector, with a strong emphasis on sustainability and circular economy principles. The region's demand is driven by the presence of consumer electronics manufacturers, particularly in Germany, France, and the United Kingdom. The MEASA region is a diverse and growing market for polymers in the EEE sector, with varying levels of economic development and market maturity. The region's abundant oil and gas resources provide a competitive advantage in the production of polymers, particularly commodity polymers such as PE and PP. APAC is the largest market for polymers in the EEE sector, driven by the rapid industrialization and urbanization of countries such as China, Japan, and South Korea. China is the world's largest producer and end user of consumer electronics, with a thriving domestic market and a significant export industry.

The study's methodology involves an in-depth analysis of the volume and revenue for each polymer type, end use, and region, providing insights into the factors driving growth and potential challenges. The forecast is based on expected compound average growth rates, offering a strategic view of the market's evolution.

The Impact of the Top 3 Strategic Imperatives on Polymers in the Electrical and Electronic Equipment (EEE) Industry

Transformative Mega Trends

Why

  • The EEE sector faces increasing scrutiny from regulators, stakeholders, and consumers demanding more environmentally friendly products. Aligning polymer development with circular economy principles is strategic to meeting these demands and an essential step toward reducing ecological footprints because electronic waste (e-waste) is the fastest-growing solid waste stream globally.
  • Polymers, crucial in various EEE applications, must evolve to become more recyclable and less dependent on finite resources. Such development enhances the sustainability of products and positions companies favorably in a competitive market that values innovation and environmental stewardship.

Frost Perspective

  • The industry will prioritize the development of sustainable products in the next 1 to 2 years, and investment in the research and innovation of bio-based and recyclable polymers will increase.
  • Polymer manufacturers will make recycling easier and educate stakeholders in the EEE value chain in the next 3 to 5 years.

Geopolitical Chaos

Why

  • Supply chain resiliency has become paramount for manufacturers, particularly in EEE, that rely on vital raw materials. Global tensions, such as the Russo-Ukrainian War, the Israeli-Palestinian War, and China’s activities in Taiwan and the South China Sea, could disrupt supply lines, leading to significant operational challenges and increased costs. Moreover, the EEE polymer supply chain relies heavily on Asia-Pacific (APAC)-based sourcing.
  • The COVID-19 pandemic severely disrupted electronics supply chains because of an overdependence on manufacturing EEE goods in APAC.
  • To mitigate these risks, companies must secure raw material sources from politically stable regions.

Frost Perspective

  • During the next 3 to 5 years, EEE manufacturers must intensify their efforts to build resilient supply chains against geopolitical challenges.
  • Companies will seek strategic realignment to procuring raw materials from geopolitically stable regions to mitigate risks associated with sourcing for the EEE sector.

Competitive Intensity

Why

  • The advent of 3D printable materials significantly disrupted the EEE sector. This innovative approach offers numerous advantages, including rapid prototyping, customization, and reduced waste, aligning with global sustainability objectives.
  • Established manufacturers must diversify their offerings as new entrants introduce alternative, eco-friendly materials.
  • Diversification helps companies maintain market relevance and cater to a broader range of consumer demands, including high-performance applications and more affordable solutions.

Frost Perspective

  • In the next 5 to 5 years, the penetration of 3D printing technologies will increase in the EEE sector, and the demand for 3D printable polymers will rise.
  • Polymer manufacturers must develop a portfolio of 3D-printable materials catering to the EEE sector.

 

Scope of Analysis

  • This study assesses the status of the global EEE sector in 2023 and evaluates future prospects.
  • The research lists volumes in kilotons (kt) and revenue in US dollars (in billions).
  • The study evaluates and analyzes the demand for plastics in EEE by end use and polymer type.
  • The study evaluates several factors, including market growth, technological advancements, regulatory landscape, and sustainability initiatives.
