Report Scope & Overview:

Antimicrobial Plastics Market Size was valued at USD 46.65 billion in 2022, and is expected to reach USD 86.35 billion by 2030, and grow at a CAGR of 8.0% over the forecast period 2023-2030.

Antimicrobial Plastics, sometimes known as polymeric biocides, are polymeric materials that have been treated with antimicrobial chemicals or additives. Silver, copper, zinc, triclosan, and oxybisphenoxarsine are the most often used antimicrobial additives. These plastics are mostly employed in commercial plastic items to kill microbes by inhibiting their growth. Antimicrobial polymers also have the ability to suppress bacteria, fungus, and protozoans, among other microorganisms. Antimicrobial polymers are highly designed materials that are made to look like antimicrobial peptides, which are used by humans' immune systems to destroy bacteria and other infections. Untreated plastic items are vulnerable to microbe development, which can result in discoloration, odour, and quick deterioration problems. Antimicrobial additives are added with plastic resins during compounding to provide a biocide treatment to avoid this. Healthcare, packaging, automotive, consumer products, and food and beverage are just a few of the industries that employ the product.

Impact of Covid-19:

COVID-19's pandemic in 2020 wreaked havoc on the world economy and a variety of businesses. The pandemic has had a favourable impact on the antimicrobial plastics sector, unlike other markets. Antimicrobial plastics have gained popularity in a variety of applications, particularly in the medical and healthcare fields. During the pandemic, there was a huge need for antimicrobial polymers in hospital beds and ventilators. As a result, demand for antimicrobial polymers in the medical and healthcare industries is predicted to expand faster than in other end-use industries. Despite restrictions on industrial operations in various end-use industries such as building and construction, automotive, consumer goods, and packaging, the increasing trend of antimicrobial plastics usage in these applications is likely to grow during the projection period.

Antimicrobial Plastics Market Segmentation Analysis

Regional Analysis:

Asia-Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East and Africa are the five primary regions that make up the worldwide antimicrobial plastics market. Because of the widespread use of antimicrobial polymers in food packaging, medical devices and equipment, and the automotive industries, North America accounted for the highest share of the market in 2018. The surge in demand for antimicrobial plastics in air conditioning and ventilation (ACV) and consumer goods is propelling the regional market forward. Europe is also likely to be a significant regional market, with rising demand in the automotive, healthcare, and medical industries. During the study period, Asia-Pacific is predicted to have a smaller proportion of the global antimicrobial plastics market.

15. Conclusion

 

An accurate research report requires proper strategizing as well as implementation. There are multiple factors involved in the completion of good and accurate research report and selecting the best methodology to compete the research is the toughest part. Since the research reports we provide play a crucial role in any company’s decision-making process, therefore we at SNS Insider always believe that we should choose the best method which gives us results closer to reality. This allows us to reach at a stage wherein we can provide our clients best and accurate investment to output ratio.

Each report that we prepare takes a timeframe of 350-400 business hours for production. Starting from the selection of titles through a couple of in-depth brain storming session to the final QC process before uploading our titles on our website we dedicate around 350 working hours. The titles are selected based on their current market cap and the foreseen CAGR and growth.

 

The 5 steps process:

Step 1: Secondary Research:

Secondary Research or Desk Research is as the name suggests is a research process wherein, we collect data through the readily available information. In this process we use various paid and unpaid databases which our team has access to and gather data through the same. This includes examining of listed companies’ annual reports, Journals, SEC filling etc. Apart from this our team has access to various associations across the globe across different industries. Lastly, we have exchange relationships with various university as well as individual libraries.

Secondary Research

Step 2: Primary Research

When we talk about primary research, it is a type of study in which the researchers collect relevant data samples directly, rather than relying on previously collected data.  This type of research is focused on gaining content specific facts that can be sued to solve specific problems. Since the collected data is fresh and first hand therefore it makes the study more accurate and genuine.

We at SNS Insider have divided Primary Research into 2 parts.

Part 1 wherein we interview the KOLs of major players as well as the upcoming ones across various geographic regions. This allows us to have their view over the market scenario and acts as an important tool to come closer to the accurate market numbers. As many as 45 paid and unpaid primary interviews are taken from both the demand and supply side of the industry to make sure we land at an accurate judgement and analysis of the market.

This step involves the triangulation of data wherein our team analyses the interview transcripts, online survey responses and observation of on filed participants. The below mentioned chart should give a better understanding of the part 1 of the primary interview.

Primary Research

Part 2: In this part of primary research the data collected via secondary research and the part 1 of the primary research is validated with the interviews from individual consultants and subject matter experts.

Consultants are those set of people who have at least 12 years of experience and expertise within the industry whereas Subject Matter Experts are those with at least 15 years of experience behind their back within the same space. The data with the help of two main processes i.e., FGDs (Focused Group Discussions) and IDs (Individual Discussions). This gives us a 3rd party nonbiased primary view of the market scenario making it a more dependable one while collation of the data pointers.

Step 3: Data Bank Validation

Once all the information is collected via primary and secondary sources, we run that information for data validation. At our intelligence centre our research heads track a lot of information related to the market which includes the quarterly reports, the daily stock prices, and other relevant information. Our data bank server gets updated every fortnight and that is how the information which we collected using our primary and secondary information is revalidated in real time.

Data Bank Validation

Step 4: QA/QC Process

After all the data collection and validation our team does a final level of quality check and quality assurance to get rid of any unwanted or undesired mistakes. This might include but not limited to getting rid of the any typos, duplication of numbers or missing of any important information. The people involved in this process include technical content writers, research heads and graphics people. Once this process is completed the title gets uploader on our platform for our clients to read it.

Step 5: Final QC/QA Process:

This is the last process and comes when the client has ordered the study. In this process a final QA/QC is done before the study is emailed to the client. Since we believe in giving our clients a good experience of our research studies, therefore, to make sure that we do not lack at our end in any way humanly possible we do a final round of quality check and then dispatch the study to the client.
