What Are The Factors Driving The Exterior Automotive Plastics Market?
The growth of the exterior automotive plastics market is predicted to be fueled by the escalating demand from the automotive sector. The automotive sector encompasses the sales and creation of a variety of vehicles, from passenger vehicles, hybrid vehicles, to motorcycles. Exterior automotive plastics hold a crucial role in this industry, being utilised in manufacturing numerous external parts of a vehicle like body panels, bumpers, grilles, mirrors, and trim. In comparison to traditional materials such as steel or aluminum, these plastics are often chosen for their lighter weight, enhanced durability, and higher resistance to corrosion. In support of this, the European Automobile Manufacturers Association, a trade organisation based in Belgium, reported in May 2023 that global production of motor vehicles surged by 5.7% to 85.4 million units in 2022, from the preceding year. As a result, the burgeoning demand from the automotive sector propels the exterior automotive plastics market.

What Are The Key Trends And Market Opportunities In The Exterior Automotive Plastics Sector?
The trend towards the usage of eco-friendly products is increasingly noticeable in the exterior automotive plastics market. Companies active in this space are gravitating towards these sustainable items to maintain their market standing. For example, in February 2024, AkzoNobel NV, a Netherlands-originating business specialized in paints, coatings, and specialty chemicals, unveiled a 2K solvent-borne primer in conductive and dark grey. This primer is specifically tailored for automotive OEM exterior plastic elements, which are notorious for presenting adhesion challenges to customers. Plastics like polypropylene tend to have a low polarity which results in reduced surface energy and poor adhesion, making the coating procedure for parts including bumpers, rocker panels, and contrasting features problematic.
