Vinylon Tube Market Overview
The Vinylon Tube
Market size is estimated to reach a value of US$425.6 million by the end of 2027 after growing at a CAGR of 4.1% during the forecast period 2022-2027. Vinylon is a synthetic fiber composed of polyvinyl alcohol by
using limestone and anthracite as raw materials. It is used in a wide range of
end-use which include building & construction, automotive, agriculture and
other end-uses. The expansion of vinylon tubes is primarily driven by their
usage in the construction industry. In 2020, the surge in the COVID-19 pandemic
negatively impacted construction activities as a result of the country-wise
shutdown of construction sites, shortage of labor and the decline of the supply
and demand chain all across the world, thus, temporarily affecting the growth
of the global vinylon tube industry. However, a steady recovery in new
development and construction contracts has been witnessed across many countries
around the world since 2021, which in turn, is driving the demand for vinylon
tubes. For instance, according to recent insights from the World Cement, the
global construction industry output increased by 5.7% in 2021. An increase in
construction activities along with the surging demand from the automotive industry
is expected to drive the growth of the vinylon tube market size in the upcoming
years. On the other hand, fluctuating prices of raw
materials may confine the growth of the market.

Vinylon Tube Market Drivers
An increase in construction activities
Construction
activities are considered to be the pillar of growth for a country and also
play a major role in increasing the overall global economy. The factors such as
urbanization and the rapid pace of development to aid the economic growth of
the countries are driving the construction activities in multiple regions
across the world. For instance, according to Volvo CE, the construction sector
saw an increase in construction activities across multiple regions since the
fourth quarter of 2020. South America saw an increase of 12%, Asia by 39%,
Europe by 20% and China by 28% in 2020. Furthermore, YIT Corporation commenced
the construction of numerous residential apartment building projects in
Finland, the CEE countries and Russia in December 2021, with total investments
of around EUR 200 million (US$236.5 million). The projects are scheduled to be
completed by the end of 2023.
The
properties of vinylon tubes such as low elongation, excellent resistance to
extreme weather, chemical and UV rays along with high strength, durability and
modulus make them ideal for use in the construction of roofs,
staircases, balconies, railings, beams and other components of the building
structure. Hence, an increase in global construction
activities is expected to increase the demand for vinylon tubes, owing to its
above-mentioned properties. This is anticipated to drive the growth of the
market in the upcoming years.
Surging demand from the automotive industry
Vinylon Tube composed
of polyvinyl alcohol, anthracite and limestone is primarily used in the
automotive industry for applications involving car suspension systems,
components of engine and transmission, along with components of body and
chassis and other similar applications. The properties of vinylon tubes such as
high strength, durability and modulus, along with low elongation and excellent
resistance to extreme weather, chemical and UV rays make them ideal for use in
such automotive applications. For instance, according to a recent study published
by the German Association of Automotive Industry during the fourth quarter of
2020, the new registration of motor vehicles reached 16,763 units in
Europe, 37,467 units in Asia, 3080 units in South America, 17,421 units in
North America, 12,733 units in Western Europe and 5180 units in other regions
worldwide. Moreover, according to the International Organization of Motor
Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA), the production of heavy-duty vehicles in Europe
reached 3,08,300 units in 2021, an increase of 31% in comparison to 2,36,328
units in 2020. It further states that the total automobile production in 2021
in Europe, America, Asia and Africa increased by 25%, 17%, 28% and 37%
respectively in comparison to 2020. Hence, an increase in global automotive production
is expected to increase the demand for vinylon tubes for use in various
components of an automobile, owing to its above-mentioned properties. This is
expected to accelerate the growth of the vinylon tube market in the upcoming
years.
Vinylon Tube Market Challenge
Fluctuating prices of raw materials
Some of the raw
materials required for the production of vinylon tubes are obtained from crude
oil. As a result, fluctuations in the prices of crude oil may hinder the growth
of the market. For instance, in 2020, the international benchmark for petroleum
prices across the world also known as Brent crude prices decreased to US$9.12
per barrel, which was the lowest record since December 10, 1998. Likewise, in
April 2020, India’s Crude Oil Basket (COB) reached US$19.90 per barrel, which
was the lowest record since February 2002. During the first 11 months of the
year 2020-21, the average annual price of India’s COB was around US$42.72 per
barrel, which decreased by 30% more than the average COB price in 2019-20.
Furthermore, as per revised estimates for 2020-21, the COB has increased by
around 35% from its initial budget estimate. In this way, such uncertainty
regarding the price of crude oil may affect the prices of raw materials that
are used in the production of vinylon tubes. Thus, such instability and
fluctuating prices of raw materials may limit the growth of the vinylon tube
industry during the forecast period.
