PVC Pipes Market: Rapid Industrialization to Spur the Industry

Pune, India, August, 2018 /press release/- Market Research Future Published a Half-Cooked Research Report on PVC Pipes Market Research Report.

Market Synopsis

The global PVC pipes market is anticipated to expand at 5.79% CAGR over the review period (2022-2030) owing to their lightweight, easy installation, and easy maintenance asserts Market Research Future (MRFR). Several industries are using PVC pipes to multiple degrees which makes them the leader among plastic pipes and is expected to reach USD 70 million by the end of 2030. PVC pipes are extensively used in sewers, water service lines, drain-waste-vent (DWV), conduit, irrigation, water service lines, water mains, and other industrial installations.

Drivers and Restraints Affecting the Market Growth

PVC pipes are highly used in construction industries that include applications such as water supply, housing and commercial, irrigation, and sewage and drainage. Penetration of market giants with expanding distribution network along with the notable role played by the government in developing the real estate sector and irrigation infrastructure is anticipated to impact the global market growth positively. With heat and electrical insulation properties, PVC pipes are also gaining acceptance in electrification application.

Moreover, with the rapid industrialization and urbanization along with infrastructural development, the market is sure to showcase a significant growth during the assessment period. Also, with the adoption of advanced and innovative technology and efficient agricultural practices, the market is expected to galvanize in the coming years.

On the flip side, the carcinogenic property of PVC pipes along with toxicity to the environment might hamper the market growth globally. PVC pipes are fragile and prone to thermal deformation, thus cannot be used to transfer fluids at room temperature. Besides, availability of substitutes such as steel, cross-linked polyethylene (PEX), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), and more are restricting the global market growth for PVC pipes over the review period.

Additionally, usage of PVC pipes for the supply of drinking water might be hazardous to health and might taste as that of PVC pipes. Disposal of PVC pipes and fittings also emits greenhouse gases which further pollute the environment to a large extent. Such factors can inhibit the market growth to a great extent in the coming years.

Global PVC Pipes Market: Segmental Analysis

The global PVC pipes market has been segmented on the basis of application, types, region, and end users.
