Indonesia Polypropylene Market Analysis

The Indonesian polypropylene market is expected to register a CAGR of over 3% during the forecast period. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a slight decrease in polypropylene demand. A drastic slowdown was witnessed in the construction and automotive sectors, where polypropylene is in high demand. The import of raw materials has been largely affected during the COVID-19 pandemic, as the Indonesian market mostly relies on imported raw materials for polypropylene production. However, polypropylene production operations were resumed in 2021-2022 and the market has been growing significantly since then.

  • Over the short term, the major factors augmenting the market are the increasing use of plastics to reduce vehicle weight and enhance fuel economy and the rising demand for flexible packaging. With the growing demand for convenient packaging, there is a rise in e-commerce business along with increasing online food delivery with product packaging in different sizes and quantities are key attributes that have fueled the growth of the flexible packaging industry, thus, in turn, increasing the demand for Indonesia polypropylene during the forecast period.
  • However, the availability of replacement products such as biopropylene resin is likely to hinder the expansion of the studied market.
  • Nevertheless, recycled polypropylene is likely to act as an opportunity for the studied market over the forecast period.
