Modern flooring has already become the latest trend among infrastructure players, with stylish homes and workplace décor representing an image of high living standards. For high quality flooring, protection from moisture is vital because floors inside the buildings are usually covered with tiles and carpet, where penetration of water vapor through concrete slabs could lead to the failure of adhesive in tiling, staining of flooring products and fungal growth. Due to its durability, chemical resistance and load rating properties, PE is widely being accepted among rotomoulding powder manufacturers to meet different flooring needs.
Plastic industry is one of the fastest growing segments in India and PE is the most largely used plastic material by Indian companies, which accounts 43% of total consumption and indicates considerable potential for APAC rotomoulding powder market in the future. PE floorings are also being offered for outdoor tile applications to improve the aesthetic appeal of commercial and residential surroundings. APAC rotomoulding powder market is poised to register remarkable proceeds from augmented construction of housing complexes and industrial or IT parks in developing nations.
Waterproofing of the concrete structures has always been a challenging task and for simplifying the job, they are focusing more on quality of concrete and subsequent proofing solutions that play a vital role in the durability of a structure. Waterproofing a structure may account for only 2% to 3% of the overall building expenditure, but defects arising out of waterproofing failures could lead to nearly 80% of a structure’s defects. Growing need for PE waterproof membranes across emerging economies will reinforce APAC rotomoulding powder industry, with players coming up with a variety of options that not only improve aesthetics but are also environment-friendly in nature.
A large number of chemical companies have extensive operations throughout Asia-Pacific, endorsing the necessity of chemical-resistant plastic frames for industrial structures. Increasing demand for these materials will undoubtedly expand APAC rotomoulding powder market share in developing countries.
Plastic is considered as one of the best suited materials for window and door frames since it is extremely impact resistant as well as impervious to water and corrosion. It is largely deployed in the food industry for professional kitchens and other humid environments. APAC is home to several countries which experience harsh weather conditions and heavy rains are witnessed across the region, which escalate the demand for corrosion resistant door and window frames. Need for suitable plastic materials like uPVC for these products will fuel APAC rotomoulding powder market growth.
APAC rotomoulding powder industry has recently witnessed a rapid adoption in low and medium-income nations in the continent, generating considerable revenues from a host of vital applications. In fact, reports estimate that Asia Pacific rotomoulding powder market will exceed annual valuation of USD 7 billion by 2024.

Introduction of IMO Tier III legislation to act as a major catalyst for rapid marine SCR systems market growth
An important factor which stood as a major growth promoter for the overall marine SCR systems industry is the enforcement of The Tier III NOx emissions regulations (IMO3) of the International Maritime Organization that came into power in 2016. According to reports, the recent IMO3 legislation has been forcing the engine manufactures to achieve a NOx reduction of more than 70% from Tier II for all the ships sailing in the NECA (NOx Emission Control Areas). The selective catalytic reduction technology in this regard has been gaining immense momentum as it was being able to operate as the standalone technology that reduced as much as 80% of NoX. The SCR system’s compliance with the IMO3 has thus elevated the business landscape of global marine selective catalytic reduction systems market, and is further expected to proliferate across the coastal waters of U.S., Canada, and China – where the legislations are enacted more severely.
China to emerge as a lucrative investment hub
The Chinese Ministry of Transport, recently in July 2018, has published new requirements with a target to limit NOx emission for the second-hand imported & Chinese-flagged diesel engine vessels. According to the regulations these engines are required to comply with the IMO3 norms and will be applicable to vessels that are converted or imported for domestic trade after September 1 2018. These new NOx emission control requirements have paved the way for robust commercialization of SCR systems in China. Moreover, the rapid growth in the long-distance and international voyage and the rising inter-border trade activities has further fortified the regional product demand. In response to these mandatory protocols, China marine selective catalytic reduction systems market size is anticipated to register a CAGR of 3% over 2018-2024.

Further considering the geographical expanse, it is imperative to mention that, thriving on the cusp of fierce stringency in regulatory framework, the U.S. marine SCR systems industry is also expected to be one of the lucrative regions for business expansion. In addition, ongoing technological advancements in the commercial & recreational marine vessels and the presence of core industry manufactures in the country are foreseen to further complement the regional growth in the ensuing years.
Further speaking on the competitive scenario, it wouldn’t be wrong to say that the sustainability and go-green trends are also vividly characterizing the marine industry vertical and impelling the prominent companies to adopt necessary market growth strategies for business proliferation. An apt instance standing as a substantiation to the aforesaid is that of Cummins Inc., that has recently introduced its new IMO3 certified QSK60 engine package that offers cleaner emissions. If reports are to be believed, the company has added selective catalytic reduction systems to meet the new emissions standards without impacting the fuel economy. Endorsed with similar product innovation and business expansion trends, several other industry players including Wärtsilä, Tenneco, DEC Marine, Mitsubishi, Hyundai, and ME Production are also seen ramping up their positions in the global marine selective catalytic reduction systems market.
All in all, it would be apt to quote that stringent regulatory protocols and highly innovative product development with technological advancements are to remain the two prominent drivers majorly shaping the business trends in the years ahead. In terms of remuneration, the global marine selective catalytic reduction systems market size is forecast to exceed a valuation of over USD 5 billion with annual installations surpassing 3,000 units by 2024.
