Coated wood-free paper is the most popular product. Light weight coated (LWC) papers market has seen increasing demand due to grade competition, changed market conditions and advanced processing methods. Quality, productivity and cost reduction are now the goal of mills which are striving to gain in this market. The LWC market has become competitive due to increased competition from value-added uncoated grades.

The coated papers industry had faced a decline in Europe and US market during the last few years. Overcapacity had been lowering the prices and affecting the profits of producers in Europe. This industry has now begun to show positive growth in these regions. Lower output during the recession for industries such as publishing and cement manufacturing, affected the demand for flexible packaging and coated paper. Coated papers have a global demand and Europe is still the largest market while North America and APAC also have huge markets for coated paper. 

Rising demand from emerging economies will drive export growth. Further, concerns regarding environmental degradation are expected to drive growth in this industry as more countries have begun to consider banning of bags of plastic at grocery stores. To achieve high growth in this market the players will have to adopt greater customer focus, product differentiation through innovation, relocating to cheaper locations, adapting to stringent environmental norms and less reliance on petroleum products.

One of the key drivers for the lignin market is its application in a wide range of low volume, niche applications. Solubility in water is an important requirement of lignin in these applications. In addition to this, lignin can be used in a wide range of applications such as in the manufacture of vanillin, animal feed, dye dispersants, micronutrients, resins, and cleaning chemicals. There is an increasing demand for lignin in developing countries such as China due to the country’s expanding industrial base. Low awareness about lignin among manufacturers is the key restraint to this market. 

Moreover, there is a weak link between the industry and research institutes which results in the low exposure of manufacturers to the developments of lignin in different applications. Besides, the technology used for extraction and application of lignin is still at a very primary stage. Thus, this is another factor which hampers the lignin market.

With present issues of environmental pollution and increasing awareness of limited resources, there is growing opportunity in the use of lignin as a substitute for fossil-based raw materials which are used in the manufacture of a wide range of products such as plastics, chemical products, and carbon fibers. In addition, lignin exhibits varied characteristics based on its method of extraction. Ongoing research in this field is increasing the application scope of lignin in the market. 

Some of the market players in this market include Borregaard Lignotech, Westvaco, Tembec, Lignol Energy Corporation, Guangdong Jiangmen Ganhua Co. Ltd., Asian Lignin Manufacturing Pvt. Ltd., and Changzhou Shanfeng Chemical Industry Co. Ltd. among others.

Reinforced Plastics Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast (2013 - 2019)

Reinforced plastics are a type of composite material which incorporates additional substances in the form of fillers that aim to improve the structural and physical properties of a base plastic material. These fillers are generally in the form of fibers and are made of materials such as glass, aramid, carbon, cellulosic derivatives, asbestos, and in some cases even metal fibers. The presence of these fillers helps to give the plastics better strength,  resistance to wear and tear, resistance to impact and such other value additions in their physical characteristics, making them more durable and capable of being tailor-made for a wide range of applications. 

Browse for full report: http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/reinforced-plastics-market.html

The most common polymers used as the matrix for these fillers are epoxy resin, vinyl compounds, formaldehyde resins, and many others. With today’s technology, various specialty and functional polymers are also being combined with fillers to produce a wider range of reinforced plastics.

Some of the major types of reinforced plastics are carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP), glass/glass fiber reinforced plastics (GRP/GFRP), wood or cellulosic plastic composites (WPC) and others. By application, the end use industries can be classified into building and construction, energy, transportation, aviation and aerospace, electronics and electrical, marine, and consumer products.

Some of the drivers in the reinforced plastics market are the increasing demand in the automotive and transportation industries for replacement of metal parts, growing applications in aviation and aerospace industries as structural necessities, and a renewed interest in the generation of energy from renewable resources. Moreover, the low cost of production, the lightweight characteristics, combined with better physical properties compared to metals, and the ever-rising demand in the developing economies of Asia-Pacific and Eastern Europe are the major factors resulting in growing sales and revenues in the reinforced plastics market. 

Some of the factors holding back this market are volatility in prices of raw materials, time-consuming manufacturing processes that are still prevalent, regulations governing the handling and transport of raw materials, most of which are classified as health and environment hazards, and other such reasons.
