Global PEEK market is expected
to register growth at CAGR of 7.2% and 8.0% by revenue and sales volume
respectively during 2018-2025F.
The PEEK producers should focus on developing innovative PEEK solutions
for different end user industries. Automotive gears, thermal and acoustic
aircraft insulation blankets, pipes for oil and gas industry and dental
implants are some of the upcoming applications of PEEK in the different
industries.
Europe is expected to be the biggest market for PEEK by 2025. Growing
demand of electronic and automatic vehicle, increase in environmental
consciousness in the aerospace industry and technological developments in the
electronics industry are expected to drive the market in Europe.
PEEK markets in South Korea, Japan and France are expected to grow at the
fastest pace on the basis of sales volume with a CAGR of 9.0%, 8.9% and 7.8%
respectively during 2018-2025F.
Advent of 3D printing Technology: 3D printing also known as
additive manufacturing, has been gaining traction in the medical, aerospace and
industrial manufacturing industry. Development of industrial and medical grade
PEEK filaments for 3D printing will drive the demand of PEEK in these
industries in the coming years.
Shifting End-User Preference towards PEEK: With increasing
technological development, PEEK is replacing metals such as titanium, aluminum,
steel, nickel, chromium and also other engineering plastics such as PPS, PTFE,
Nylon 66, PAI, PEI, PLA, PVF and others in oil & gas, aerospace &
defense, electronics & electrical, automotive, medical and food processing
industries. For instance, carbon or glass reinforced grades of PEEK are replacing
PTFE in seals and back-up rings application and it is also used to replace the
conventionally used titanium tubes in aircraft tubing systems, for instance,
PFW Aerospace selected VICTREX Pipes for the cargo drainage system on the
Airbus A350 XWB.
Increase in Competition: Increase in number of
expiring patents of Victrex PEEK and increase in global PEEK production
capacity ensures availability of cheaper PEEK grades, which will eventually
increase the demand of PEEK in various end user industries.
Technological Development in Automotive Industry: Development of electronic
vehicles and automated vehicles has necessitated the demand of light weight,
self lubricating and high performance material PEEK. With surge in demand of
electric vehicle, the demand of PEEK is also expected to increase.
Increase in Demand for Technologically Advanced
Consumer Goods: Increase in standard of living has increased the demand for
technological advanced and expensive consumer goods. For instance, Dyson
hairdryers and vacuum cleaners have PEEK impeller which makes it sound proof
and enhances the consumer experience. Mentor Optical have developed PEEK
optical frame with Evonik’s VESTAKEEP PEEK known as Plasteel Eyewear. The
Eyewear weighs just 9 grams whereas traditional frames weigh as much as 23
grams, thereby offering the highest wear comfort for the user.
