The market volume of thermoplastic pipe is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2014 to 2019

A thermoplastic material becomes soft when heated and hard when cooled. These are made of polymers linked by intermolecular interactions or van der Waals forces or the branched structures. Examples of the material are Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC), Polypropylene (PP), Polyethylene (PE), Polyamide (PA), and others. Pipes manufactured using these types of materials make the categories of thermoplastic pipes. The usage of thermoplastic material to manufacture thermoplastic pipes has increased; the reasons for which can be attributed to the lightweight, corrosion resistance, low maintenance costs, and higher strength provided by the thermoplastic pipes.

The oil & gas application is estimated to grow with increasing demand for flexible pipes, umbilical, and risers. The thermoplastic pipe market is estimated to grow with increasing deep, ultra-deepwater applications for oil & gas industry, as well as water and wastewater pipes for municipal application. Thermoplastic pipes are used in several industrial applications that include oil & gas, municipal, mining & dredging, and chemical sectors.

High demand for thermoplastic municipal pipes is driving the Asia-Pacific market. Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa are emerging markets with increasing application of thermoplastic pipes in the municipal and chemical industries. The region is expected to witness investment worth $770 Billion from 2011 to 2020 in the chemical industry of the region. Approximately 50% of this investment is expected to come from GCC member nations, with the rest shared by Iraq and Iran. The European market is the most mature, and is expected to register the slowest growth during the forecast period.
