Drivers

High Demand Plastics with Enhanced Properties

• Plastics that have been enhanced to meet specific requirements and perform better than general plastic products are increasing in demand at a rapid pace, this is slated to bolster additive masterbatch market growth in the long run.

Innovation in Additive Masterbatch Technologies

• Technological innovations have resulted in the creation of novel additive masterbatch technologies and practices that enhance the creation of novel plastic products. High investments in R&D are projected to further result in innovation and drive additive masterbatch market development.

Restraints

Volatile Raw Material Pricing

• Raw materials required in additive masterbatch are subject to frequent changes in price as they are directly dependent on global trade conditions, commodity markets, geopolitical alliances, tensions, etc. This could affect the cost of the end-product and thereby slow down additive masterbatch market growth.

Supply Chain Disruption

• Trade wars between countries, imposition of bans on trade of certain goods, and geopolitical tensions are some major causes that could lead to supply chain disruption. This disruption could cause fluctuations in the demand and supply chain thereby hurting additive masterbatch market development in the future.
