US Polystyrene Resin Demand to Rise 0.6% Yearly in Volume Terms to 2022


CLEVELAND, Jan. 21, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- US demand for polystyrene resin is forecast to rise 0.6% annually in volume terms through 2022, according to Polystyrene: United States, a report recently released by Freedonia Focus Reports. Suppliers will benefit from gains in the production of foodservice disposables, building products, appliances, electronics, electrical equipment, and non-wood furniture. However, further demand gains will be limited by rising substitution with more environmentally friendly resins such as polylactic acid (PLA). Ongoing competition with other resins and materials, such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and paper, will also continue to restrain polystyrene resin demand. Finally, municipal bans on single-use polystyrene foam used for products such as disposable drinking cups and food takeout containers will also limit gains to some extent.
