Market Dynamics

The rising factor attributing to the demand for the styrene market is owing to the increase of consumer base in the electronics sector, automobile sector, and construction industry. Numerous disposable products can be derived from styrene owing to its advantages such as water resistance, thermal efficiency, and stability. Demand for high-impact polystyrene is also a major reason propelling the rise of the global styrene market during the forecast period. In addition, its usage in the manufacturing of car knobs, energy-absorbing door panels, instrument panels, and sound damping foam in the automobile industry is projected to bolster the revenue share for the styrene market.

Further, demand from the food packaging industry in huge quantities is also expected to grow at a notable rate during the forecast period owing to the readymade food items to be delivered across the world and consumer demands for packaged foods which makes the food fresh for a longer duration. In addition, personal care products also aim to furnish to the styrene market growth such as cotton pads, containers for beauty products, and disposable razors.

However, owing to environmental and health concerns from the continuous usage of styrene the demand for styrene is declining. Exposure to styrene resulted in eye irritation, headache, weakness, depression, fatigue, hearing loss, central nervous system dysfunction, and gastrointestinal effects. Such ill effectors factors on the health conditions of humans restrain the growth of the styrene market during the forecast period.
