Resurgence
in Construction and Automotive Industries to Drive the Global Melamine Market,
According to a New Report by Global
Industry Analysts, Inc.
GIA
launches comprehensive analysis of industry segments, trends, growth drivers,
market share, size and demand forecasts on the global Melamine market. The global
market for Melamine is forecast to reach 1900 thousand tons by 2020, driven
by the improving growth fundamentals in the construction and automotive end-use
industries, supportive government regulations, and increasing public awareness
regarding the benefits of Melamine.
With the continuous
improvement in macroeconomic scenario globally, the demand for melamine is
expected to gain momentum. Demand for melamine is reliant on the number of construction
projects and automotive production trends. The market is primarily driven by the
use of melamine in wide ranging end-use applications including laminates,
adhesive resins, coatings, dinnerware, sports, and flame-retardants. While
in developed countries, demand is fostered by the recovery in housing construction
activity, in developing economies rapid urbanization and development of mega cities
are expected to spur opportunities in the construction sector.
Laminates account for about 50% of melamine consumption. A key
factor driving the adoption of laminate flooring is its cost-advantage over
other types of flooring products, including wood, ceramics, and vinyl. The growth
in the laminate flooring market is also attributed to the development of
advanced designs, easy installation, and relative ease in maintenance. Laminate
flooring also represents an eco-friendly flooring option. Improving global GDP,
and recovery in residential and commercial construction sectors are expected to
stimulate sales in the global laminate flooring market. New housing and
replacement markets are the two largest markets for laminate flooring.
As
stated by the new market research report on Melamine,
Asia-Pacific represents the largest and the fastest growing market worldwide. Technological
advancements and rapid industrialization trends have contributed considerably
to increased interest in laminate flooring products in the region. China
is one of the bright spots in Asia-Pacific where consumption of melamine is
expected to benefit from the strong demand in the construction sector. China
continues to hold its presence as an undisputed leader in the global melamine
market, in terms of production capacity, total output, and consumption of
Melamine. However, overcapacity of Melamine in China has created challenges for
manufacturers, as capacity utilization remains low. Despite facing overcapacity
issues, Chinese melamine market is expected to witness growth with the country remaining
the largest consumer and exporter of melamine.
