• Asia-Pacific is the largest consumer of this resin owing to the growing aerospace, automotive, electrical, and electronics sectors in the region. The electrical and electronics industry and vehicle production majorly led the polycarbonate market with a share of around 45.95% and 11.8% by volume, respectively, in 2022 in the region. The rising automotive, electrical, and electronics production is expected to drive the demand for polycarbonate resin.
• Europe's demand for polycarbonate resin is increasing significantly due to rising vehicle production, electrical and electronics, and others. European Union is the second-largest vehicle producer. In 2022, the region produced 17 million units, which is 12.27% by volume of the entire region. The region's electrical and electronics market is also expanding, and it is expected to reach a value of USD 186.5 billion in 2023. These factors are expected to drive the demand for polycarbonate resin in Europe during the forecast period.
• Africa is the fastest-growing region for polycarbonate resin, which is anticipated to register a CAGR of 7.68% by revenue during the forecast period (2023-2029). The rise in electrical and electronics production along with increasing demand for hybrid vehicles in the region, is driving the demand for the resin.

Global Polycarbonate (PC) Market Trends

Technological advancements in electronics industry may foster the growth

• The rapid pace of technological innovation in electronic products is driving the consistent demand for new and fast electrical and electronic products. In 2022, the global revenue of electrical and electronics stood at USD 5,807 billion, with Asia-Pacific holding a 74% market share, followed by Europe with a 13% share. The global electrical and electronics market is expected to record a CAGR of 6.61% during the forecast period.
• In 2018, the Asia-Pacific region witnessed strong economic growth owing to rapid industrialization in China, South Korea, Japan, India, and ASEAN countries. In 2020, due to the pandemic, there was a slowdown in global electrical and electronics production due to the shortage of chips and inefficiencies in the supply chain, which led to a stagnant growth rate of 0.1% in revenue compared to the previous year. This growth was driven by the demand for consumer electronics for remote working and home entertainment as people were forced to remain indoors during the pandemic.
• The demand for advanced technologies, such as digitalization, robotics, virtual reality, augmented reality, IoT (Internet of Things), and 5G connectivity, is expected to grow during the forecast period. Global electrical and electronics production is expected to register a growth rate of 5.9% in 2027. As a result of technological advancements, the demand for consumer electronics is expected to rise during the forecast period. For instance, the global consumer electronics industry is projected to witness a revenue reach of around USD 904.6 billion in 2027, compared to USD 719.1 billion in 2023. As a result, technological development is projected to lead the demand for electrical and electronic products during the forecast period.
