The global thermoplastic elastomers market is estimated to exhibit a X.X% CAGR in terms of value during the forecast period 2018–2027. The global thermoplastic elastomers market report has been segmented on the basis of type, application, and region.

Thermoplastic elastomers are flexible materials that can be stretched at least twice their length at room temperature and have the ability to return to their original length when stress is released. Thermoplastic elastomers are the substitute for thermoset rubber. Thermoplastic elastomers are eco-friendly thermoplastics that can be remolded and reshaped.

Thermoplastic elastomer exhibit better chemical and physical properties compared to thermoset plastics. Thermoplastic polyurethane and the thermoplastic polyolefin are used as a substitute for ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) in construction material, high substitution rate is expected to fuel the demand for thermoplastic elastomers over the forecast. Growing demand for high performance and lightweight passenger vehicles has been driving plastic innovation in automobile industry.

Styrenic block copolymers are expected to be the largest product segment in thermoplastic elastomers market. High tensile strength along with elastomeric properties is expected to fuel the styrenic block copolymers market over the forecast. Growing demand for styrene isoprene styrene particularly in growing economies like China and India is expected to fuel the market demand.

Automotive is estimated to be the largest market. Increasing demand for automotive component manufacturing is anticipated to boost the demand for thermoplastic elastomers. Regulatory intervention by environmental agencies regarding carbon emissions has forced the automobile manufacturers to incorporate plastics as a substitute for metals in automotive components.

The Asia Pacific is expected to be the largest consumer. High automobile and construction industry growth, along with increasing production of footwear and electronic goods in the region is anticipated to fuel the growth of thermoplastic elastomer market. Presence of growing economies like China, India, and Indonesia is expected to drive the market growth over the forecast. The demand for thermoplastic elastomers in North America is estimated to grow over the forecast period due to growing automobile production in US and Mexico.
