Lukewarm PVC Industry Promises Considerable Revival in 2011-2016 According to Merchant Research & Consulting Ltd



LONDON – The global polyvinyl chloride market remains rather unstable today and is seen by a number of consumers as lukewarm at the moment. The major market players are slow to upgrade their activity, the production costs are still high which has led to slow demand dynamics.

Nevertheless the ongoing revival of the construction industry in the big-scale markets backs up the PVC demand considerably. Another major driver of the PVC market is the fast and large development of the infrastructure and new projects in the emerging markets of the Middle East, Eastern Europe and Latin America. Thus the future forecasts for the PVC market at the global level are rather positive and the total PVC production industry is expected to reach pre-crises levels during the coming 4-5 years.

Elaborate analytical review of the polyvinyl chloride market and its future development is presented within the new market research study “Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) 2011 World Market Outlook and Forecast up to 2016”. It examines the market at the global, regional and country scale, offering information on the past and present state of the PVC industry and forecasts through 2016.

The data discussed in the study encompasses the production and consumption volumes and statistics, trade dynamics and prices for PVC in the reviewed periods. Key producers and consumers are profiled and the competitive landscape is analysed. The presented market projections depict the future trends and developments within the PVC industry, opportunities and challenges and data on future volumes and prices.
