“The demand of PEEK is expected to be driven by introduction of electric
vehicles, increase in use of automated vehicles, development in 3D printing
technology, regulation regarding CO2 emission and increase in standard of
living”.
The report
titled “Global
PEEK Market Outlook to 2025- By Type (Glass Filled, Unfilled and Carbon
Filled), By Application (Oil & Gas, Electronics & Electrical, Aerospace
& Defense, Automotive, Medical and others) and By Region (Europe,
Asia-Pacific, North America, South America and MEA)” by Ken Research
suggests that the Global PEEK
Industry is booming with expanding sales volume owing to increase in number of
expired patents, increase in production capacity, increase in awareness
regarding environmental protection, fluctuating oil price and technological
changes in the electronics industry. The market is expected to register growth
at CAGR of 7.2% and 8.0% by revenue and sales volume respectively during
2018-2025F.
Increasing Global PEEK Production
Capacity:
The top 3 producers of PEEK have increased their production capacity in
2014-2016. In 2014, Victrex introduced a new production plant which increased
the company’s production capacity to 7,150 tons per annum. In 2015, Evonik
increased its PEEK production capacity by 25.0%. In 2016, Solvay increased its
PEEK production capacity to more than 2,500 tons per annum by expanding production
in its existing plant.
Increasing Environmental
Consciousness:
Increasing awareness regarding minimization of CO2 emissions has driven the
producers in aerospace and automotive industry to use light weight, fuel
efficient materials like PEEK. Increase in fuel efficiency leads to reduction
in fuel cost which generally accounts for 35% of the total cost to the
aerospace companies. For instance, according to an industry report, replacing
100 meters of metal tubing per plane by PEEK tubes can lead to savings of up to
USD 1.6 million in fuel costs and 5,500 tons of CO2 emissions per year.
Technological Developments: PEEK is a material chosen by producers to develop innovative
goods with state of art technology. For instance, PEEK is used by Dyson to
produce impellers for vacuum cleaners to make the machine sound proof and to
increase the air flow. PEEK in the mobile industry has lead to development of
thinner, lighter and smarter devices. PEEK in acoustic film application in
mobile phones has helped developers to get better sound quality in small space.
PEEK is also used in electromechanical components of mobile phones as it
provides better antenna signals to phones with metal backs and it enables
production of sleek new designs with thin-wall components that can replace or
integrate with metals for streamlined manufacturing.
