Global Construction Additives Market Dynamics

Plating on plastics is a term used to illustrate the decorative or useful application of metal onto plastic substrates using the process of electroplating as on ABS. The European market is majorly driven by the automotive industry in the UK and Germany. Chrome finished automotive have attained considerable popularity in the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Spain, and Russia. The region is witnessing rising environmental regulations which has led to higher demand for lighter aerodynamic cars. Auto giants such as BMW, Volvo, Volkswagen, Daimler AG, and others are expected to drive the demand for the overall market over the forecast period. However, rising stringency in the regulations pertaining to plating on plastic and stringent regulations set by the European Union on hexavalent chromium are restraining the market growth over the forecast period.

Global Construction Additives Market Segment Analysis

Europe Plating on Plastic Market is segmented by plating type, plastic type, and application. By plating type, the chrome plating market was valued at USD xx Mn in 2019 and is expected to reach USD xx Mn by 2027 at a CAGR of 6.93% over the forecast period 2020-2027. The chrome plating of plating on plastics is depositing a coat of chromium to the plastics using electrodeposition process. The main principle of this process is to impart the physical and chemical properties of the chromium on the surface of the ABS plastic. In recent days chrome-plated ABS plastics are have been used in various areas because of its lightweight, corrosive resistant, desired bright, smooth, reflective surface finish, and many other properties that have been fulfilled by the replacement of the metal component. Chrome plating type is followed by Nickel plating. Nickel plating type segment was valued at USD xx Mn in 2019 and is expected to reach USD xx Mn by 2027 at a CAGR of 7.94% over the forecast period. By plastic type, the ABS plastic type segment was valued at USD xx Mn in 2019 and is expected to reach USD xx Mn by 2027 at a CAGR of 6.82% over the forecast period. ABS is considered as the best electroplating plastic among them because of some other influencing factors like low coefficient of thermal expansion, erase modelling, and good aesthetics, high adhesion to substrate, etc. By application, the automotive application was valued at USD xx Mn in 2019 and is expected to reach USD xx Mn by 2027 at a CAGR of xx% over the forecast period. The automotive industry in Europe was the pioneer to implement nickel and chromium coating on plastic resins on a commercial level. Properties such as lower cost, weight reduction, and aesthetic designs enabled huge applications across the automotive industry. It is widely used in window trims, interior trim, mirror housings, auxiliary lamps, radiator grills, name badges and front, and rear lamps.
