London, UK (PRWEB) January 20, 2015
The polyvinyl chloride (PVC) was the main application for vinyl chloride (VCM) in 2013, accounting for 97% of the world consumption. Today, the VCM market is heavily dependent on the construction segment, which is the largest end use-sector of PVC.
The world market for VCM witnessed unstable demand during the past years, given the high feedstock material prices and the crisis in the construction segment. However, at present the demand is stabilizing due to the increase of VCM consumption in China, the Eastern Europe and the Middle East.
The world VCM market is slated to record moderate increase with a single digit growth rate in the years ahead. Asia is currently the largest VCM consumer, holding a 50% share of the overall demand. North America and Europe are the other largest material consumers. The market for VCM in developing countries demonstrates high growth rates, owing to the higher PVC demand due to the active infrastructure development. The PVC demand is still the main factor, driving the VCM market growth.
The US is dominating the VCM market in terms of output, due to the ongoing technological developments and lower feedstock prices. China is the world’s second biggest VCM producer.
