South Africa Plastic Pipes and
Fittings Market Overview and Size
South
Africa plastic pipes and fittings market was observed in its growth stage and
the market is highly correlated with the development in the sewage and
drainage, irrigation and mining industries in South Africa. The market has
grown at a slower pace than expected due to the economic slowdown in the
country which adversely affected the infrastructure sector as government spending
has substantially reduced over the years. Rare Plastics, Swan Plastics and
Sizabantu Plastics are the market leaders of PVC, HDPE and O-PVC pipes and
fittings respectively in terms of revenue, as of 2018. O-PVC being the emerging
sector has only one domestic manufacturer in the country. Majority of these
pipes and fittings are manufactured in the country and the rest are imported
from countries such as Botswana, Spain, China and others. Leading end user
applications of PVC plastic pipes and fittings in South Africa were towards
sewage, drainage, water transmission and distribution, irrigation and others
whereas, HDPE plastic pipes were majorly used within mining sector especially
in grout lines for transferring minerals and wasters in the mines.
South Africa Plastic Pipes and
Fittings Market Segmentation
By Type of Plastic Pipes and Fittings: In 2018, PVC pipes and fittings dominated the
industry followed by HDPE and O-PVC segment in South Africa. The demand for PVC
pipes and fittings has been increasing majorly due to high demand from its
application areas. UPVC Pipes contributed the highest sales in PVC pipes and
fitting segment. There is a growing demand of plastic pipes in irrigation,
mining and irrigation sectors as well.
By End User Applications of HDPE
Plastic Pipes: In 2018, mining
contributed the highest share to the HDPE plastic pipes and fittings market of
South Africa. The mining industry relies heavily on its plastic pipe
infrastructure for water distribution, dewatering and slurry disposal. The
sewage and drainage systems is the second largest end-user of HDPE pipes
followed by bulk water and other applications such as chemical, oil, gas and
plumbing in terms of revenue.
By End User Applications of PVC
Plastic Pipes: PVC plastic
pipes and fittings in South Africa were majorly used towards infrastructure
applications including water transmission, sewage and drainage purposes. In
2018, the segment dominated the country’s plastic pipes and fittings market
owing to the growing water infrastructure needs and the need to replace old
pipe infrastructure. Irrigation sector had the second highest application of
PVC plastic pipes because of their low cost; followed by bulk water and other
sectors such as chemical, oil, gas and plumbing in terms of revenue generated
in the industry.
By Market Structure (Organized and
Unorganized Market): Organized
players with high manufacturing capabilities were witnessed to dominate the
South Africa plastic pipes and fittings market. However, the total number of
unorganized players has been increasing over the past few years, primarily
because of the rising demand for low cost plastic pipe products in the country
which have the same quality.
By Domestic Sales and Import: The domestically manufactured products
acquire majority of the market share in terms of sales volume which comprises
of all the types of plastic pipes and fittings. Low price of raw material is
one of the reasons for high market share of domestically manufactured pipes.
Imported products on the other hand are brought in from countries such as
Botswana, Spain and China.
Comparative Landscape in South Africa
Plastic Pipes and Fittings Market
South
Africa Plastic pipes and fittings market is concentrated in case of PVC and
HDPE plastic pipes with a few leading companies capturing the majority of
market share in terms of revenue. The domestic manufacturers such as Rare
Plastics, Marley, Gradco, DPI and Flo-Tek are the major companies of PVC pipes
and fittings in terms of production volume in 2018. Similarly, HDPE pipes and
fittings have three major players namely Swan Plastics, Flo-Tek and Sizabantu
Plastics constituting most of the market share in terms of production volume.
In case of O-PVC, Sizabantu Plastics is the only domestic manufacturer in 2018.
The domestic manufacturers compete generally on the basis of price, quality and
product availability.
South Africa Plastic Pipes and
Fittings Market Future Outlook and Projections
Growth
in plastic pipe segment within South Africa is expected to increase due to
efforts to expand access to potable water and sewage systems. Opportunities
exist for water and sewer systems, as a considerable share of the South African
population do not have access to drinking water supply or improved sanitation.
It is anticipated that the PVC pipes will grow at the fastest pace among all
type of plastic pipes, due to high demand expected from their end users. The
use of HDPE pipes is expected to basically reduce due to substitution by O-PVC
plastic pipes in the near future. In the case of end user applications, plastic
pipes used in mining industry along with water supply and infrastructure
pipelines is expected to increase at fastest pace among other end user
applications.
