A
new research report by Transparency Market Research offers a
comprehensive evaluation of the global Expanded
Polypropylene
Market. The
study, titled “Expanded
Polypropylene (EPP) Foam Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size,
Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast 2016 - 2024”,
is available for sale on the firm’s website.
Expanded
polypropylene (EPP) foam is a form of polypropylene. EPP can resume
its shape after several impacts. Thus, it has the ability to absorb
massive impacts, which makes it an ideal material for the aviation
modelling and radio-controlled vehicles, globally. EPP foam is
produced by using the compression steam chest molding technique.
Beads of different sizes are fused together through the use of this
molding technique, resulting in a strong and lightweight product.
Polypropylene, also known as polypropene, is a thermoplastic polymer.
It is used in various applications in packaging and textile
industries.

EPP
is highly versatile and fully recyclable. Its other properties
include excellent energy absorption, buoyancy, impact resistance,
thermal insulation, water and chemical resistance, and high
strength-to-weight ratio. EPP can be manufactured with a wide range
of densities ranging from 10 to 180 grams per liter. It can then be
transformed by molding into EPP with densities ranging from 16 to 265
grams per liter. Properties of EPP such as absorption of
high-magnitude kinetic impacts without breaking down and
re-attainment of the original shape after the impact are factors
driving the market for EPP in several applications, especially the
aircraft modelling.
Specially
designed aluminum molds are widely preferred, owing to their
cost-effectiveness. Production of the EPP foam is a complex process,
which requires both technical expertise and custom-made, special
equipment. Under controlled temperature and pressure conditions,
polypropylene resin is mixed with other ingredients in a multi-step
process. Various other proprietary manufacturing techniques are also
employed to produce variations in the final product. The EPP foam is
first injected into the mold. EPP foams are extensively employed in
the automotive industry, owing to the performance benefits that they
offer when used in the manufacture of lightweight parts. These
benefits include energy management, recyclability, and durability.
The
expanded polypropylene (EPP) foam market can be segmented on the
basis of density, process, and application. In terms of density, the
market can be divided into high, low, and porous. In terms of
process, the EPP foam market can be segregated into solid-state
processing and melt-state processing. Based on application, the
market can be divided into automotive, packaging, textile, furniture,
food & beverages, and toys.
A
majority of manufacturers of the EPP foam are located in North
America and Europe. Several established players are entering into the
Asia Pacific market in order to grab an additional market share.
Demand for the EPP foam in China’s automotive and aviation
industries is rising. This is driving the market in Asia Pacific and
the same trend is expected to continue in the next few years.
Emerging markets for the EPP foam in Asia Pacific such as India,
China, South Korea, and Australia are attracting the established
players to install their production bases in these countries.
Increased investments in technological developments and the risen
demand for quality products in aviation, automotive, packaging,
textile, and food & beverages industries are factors driving the
market for the EPP foam. The EPP foam market is also driven by
applications such as packaging. The EPP foam is employed to protect
highly sensitive, highest-quality, and fragile products from shocks
and vibrations.
