Summary
World demand to rise 4.7 annually through
2018 Global demand for emulsion polymers is
forecast to advance 4.7 percent per year to 13.0
million metric tons (dry basis) in 2018.
Accelerations in construction spending,
manufacturing output, and paper and paperboard
production worldwide will stimulate growth. In
particular, rebounding construction activity in
North America and Western Europe will propel
market advances. In addition, the displacement of
solventborne coatings and adhesives with
water-based types -- which are manufactured using
emulsion polymers -- is expected to continue in
virtually all parts of the world, fueling market
gains.

China remains top market Malaysia, India to lead
gains China is the leading world market for
emulsion polymers. Through 2018, the Chinese
market will advance at a brisk pace, supported by
rapid expansion in its output of paint and
coatings, paper and paperboard, and adhesives.
Meanwhile, Malaysia and India are forecast to
register the fastest annual gains among major
markets through 2018. Demand in Malaysia will be
boosted by robust growth in the countrys massive
export oriented latex glove industry, as well as
the increased substitution of nitrile gloves for
natural latex types worldwide.

In India, accelerating construction spending and
manufacturing activity will propel gains in
emulsions demand, as will the growing penetration
of waterborne technologies in Indias coatings
and adhesives industries. North America will
remain the second largest regional consumer of
emulsion polymers, behind the Asia/Pacific
region, bolstered by a rebounding construction
sector and strong demand for water-based paints
and adhesives in the US and Canadian markets. In
both North America and Western Europe, more
stringent environmental legislation to limit
emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
will continue to support the use of water based
technologies in the manufacture of coatings and
adhesives.
5
Paint coatings industry to drive global
growth The paint and coatings market represents
the leading outlet for emulsion polymers,
accounting for 36 percent of worldwide demand in
2013. Ongoing concerns about the health and
environmental hazards posed by solvent-based
coatings will continue to bolster the use of
waterborne technologies. In addition,
improvements in the performance of latex paint
are expected to increase its use in industrial
and maintenance coating applications. Even in
industrialized regions such as North America and
Western Europe, where water-based paint is
dominant in the architectural sector, there
remain ample opportunities for emulsions in
manufacturing and specialty coatings.
