One of the driving forces behind this market’s evolution is the advancement in manufacturing technologies, particularly the introduction of Automated Tape Laying (ATL) and Automated Fiber Placement (AFP) technologies. ATL allows for precise and automated placement of thermoplastic tapes onto substrates or molds, minimizing errors and enhancing product quality. Meanwhile, AFP technology is used to lay continuous fiber tapes onto surfaces, bolstering the strength and reinforcement of thermoplastic materials.
ATL and AFP technologies not only ensure consistency and accuracy in tape placement but also contribute to efficiency, cost reduction, and sustainable manufacturing practices. These automated processes enhance productivity, minimize material waste, and facilitate the creation of complex and tailored geometries, ultimately optimizing the mechanical properties and overall performance of thermoplastic tape-based components.
As the demand for high-performance materials continues to rise in construction and other industries, the adoption of these advanced manufacturing technologies is expected to drive the growth and innovation within the thermoplastic tape market in the coming years.
The increasing demand for eco-friendly and biodegradable products is also expected to drive market growth. Thermoplastic tapes made from biodegradable materials, such as corn starch, are becoming increasingly popular as they are more environmentally friendly than traditional thermoplastic tapes.
There are various types of thermoplastic tape available in the market, such as polypropylene tape, polyethylene tape, nylon tape, and others. Among these, polypropylene tape is the most widely used due to its excellent mechanical properties and low cost. However, polyethylene tape is also gaining popularity due to its high strength and durability.
The thermoplastic tape market is segmented based on application, such as construction, automotive, packaging, and others. Among these, the construction segment is expected to dominate the market due to the increasing demand for thermoplastic tape in the construction of buildings and infrastructure projects. The automotive segment is also expected to witness significant growth due to the increasing use of thermoplastic tape in the production of vehicles.
Manufacturers Foresee Lucrative Opportunities in East Asia
Europe will continue to hold a prominent share in the thermoplastic tape market. However, high growth opportunities are expected in East Asia in 2021 and beyond. China is anticipated to represent high incremental opportunity and maximum growth rate in the region. With mounting environmental concerns, the government in the country are continuously imposing regulations to reduce dependency on fossil fuel, which led to increased adoption of composites in automotive and aircraft manufacturing. As a result, thermoplastic tape is likely to gain significant traction in the East Asian countries.
