Market Overview

The Global Polystyrene Market share is anticipated to surpass a valuation of USD 33,160.6 million, attaining a CAGR of 4.87% during the forecast period (2017-2023), Market Research Future (MRFR) unveils in a detailed report.

Consumer electronics is considered an innovation-based, highly competitive market. Polystyrene is a vital product used in several consumer electronics products like IT equipment and housing for television. Polystyrene is highly preferred for cassette tape housing, media enclosures, and clear jewel boxes to protect DVDs and CDs. With decreasing price-range of products and continuously advancing technology, the consumer electronics market is expected to accelerate. Emerging countries like India, China, Indonesia, Australia, Thailand, South Africa, Brazil, and South Korea showcase huge growth potential. Thus, the growth in the consumer electronics market has a positive impact on the growth of the polystyrene market.

The contribution of the packaging industry towards the polystyrene market has been tremendous over the past few years. Polystyrene is considered one of the trusted packaging materials due to its high insulation properties, and thermal and water resistance offered by it. Moreover, with the booming e-commerce sector, the demand for effective packaging is likely to augment, which in turn will contribute to the polystyrene market’s growth.

On the contrary, rising awareness regarding the negative impacts of polystyrene has led consumers to shift their preference towards the consumption of organic products. This is likely to hinder the market growth in the foreseeable future.
