Australia Plastic Pipe and Fitting Market
Australia
plastic pipe and fitting market is in its late growth stage with few major
manufacturing players constituting majority of the market size of the industry.
The market has registered a five year CAGR of single digit from FY’2013 to FY’2018.
The demand for plastic pipes and fittings is highly correlated with the
investment of government on infrastructural, mining and agricultural activities
and the demand for house dwellings in the country. Improvements in technology
and plastic materials have helped plastic pipe increase its share in energy,
agriculture, and industrial sectors in Australia. For instance, in oil and gas
applications, plastic accounts for only a small share of the total pipe market,
but increasing use of some materials, such as fiberglass in oil pipelines and
HDPE in natural gas distribution have supported the plastic pipe demand growth in
the market.
Market Segmentation
By Type of Pipes
The
market is segmented into PVC, PE and Others. Others include plastic pipes such
as ABS, PP, PVDF and PB. In FY’2018, PE pipes had the largest market share. PVC
pipes had second biggest market share as these types of pipes are less costly
compared to PE pipes and are widely used in various sectors such as water
pipelines and sewage pipelines. It has been witnessed that PVC has been mainly
substituted by PE pipes in various application, which resulted in PE pipes
gaining significant market share in the overall market. In other product
segment, PP (Polypropylene) pipes has got a niche market for itself and is used
in ventilation ducts, storm water retention systems, road culverts and others.
By Geographical Regions
The
Victoria region accounted for the majority of the share because of the
increased demand for house dwelling units in past few years and also due to the
surging expenditure on various infrastructural and developmental activities and
other similar stimulus programs by the federal and state governments in the
past few years. The region also accounts for the majority of the migration into
the country. Other regions such as Queensland, New South Wales also gained
significant share in the market demand for housing and increased expenditure on
developmental activities.
The end
user application for plastic pipes and fittings can be categorized into Plumbing
and Civil, Agriculture, Mining and Industrial, Telecom and Electrical and
Others (cable protection, gas, HVAC and other related industries). Most of the
plastic pipes and fittings in Australiaare used for water supply and sewage
systems. This is because uPVC and HDPE pipes are being preferred by the
government as they are comparatively low in cost as compared to steel and iron
pipes. Plumbing and civil application has comparatively higher market share due
to large scale of real estate construction undertaken by the private sector in
Australia. Mining, Chemical and Oil sectors are widely present in Australia
owing to which, these industries contributed a significant share in the demand
for plastic pipes and fittings in the country. Other applications include
transfer of gas, HVAC, and other related industries.
Competition Scenario
The
competition of the market is concentrated in the hands of top three players
which include Iplex Pipelines, Vinidex and Pipemakers. Iplex Pipelines, Australia
is the biggest manufacturer of plastic pipes and fittings in the country. It is
followed by Vinidex and Pipemakers. Within the organized players, the price of
the product tends to remain close to the industry prices and the manufacturers
compete more on the basis of quality of the products and product availability
in the wholesale and retail outlets and product customization at the time of
bulk orders, whereas the unorganized players compete on the basis of price and
the availability of the product in the retail and wholesale stores.
Future Outlook
The
future outlook of the industry is positive with revenue estimated to grow at a
CAGR of single digit during FY’2018 to FY’2023. The use of PVC pipes is
expected to reduce due to substitution by other types of plastic pipes
specifically PE pipes. The market share of organized sector manufacturers is
expected to increase in FY’2023 due to increase in further penetration into the
market and preference for high quality grade pipes. The domestic manufacturing
is expected to increase in the near future. In the case of end user
application, plastic pipes used in plumbing and civil applications along with
application in oil and chemical industry are expected to increase at fastest
pace among other end user applications.
