Engineering plastics are materials that exhibit superior properties such as mechanical strength, heat and chemical resistance, etc. when compared to commodity plastics. The superior properties of engineering plastics make it an effective product and enable their use across a wide range of industrial and consumer applications. Engineering plastics are widely used in applications such as electrical and electronics, automotive, industrial, appliances, packaging and so on.

Automotive and transportation is the largest outlet for engineering plastics, followed by electrical and electronics, and industrial and machinery. In recent years, the consumption of engineering plastics in automotive and transportation has shown tremendous growth owing to its continuously increasing usage in the production of light vehicle applications, and for structural and glazing window applications.

ABS is expected to be the largest volume engineering plastic in the forecasted period whereas polycarbonates and nylon are expected to be the fastest growing types. The ABS market is expected to grow at a sluggish rate as it continuously faces stiff competition from commodity resins such as polypropylene, polystyrene and high density polyethylene and also suffers from market maturity. The smaller volume engineering plastics such as polysulfone, PPS, PPE, PEEK, etc. are expected to grow at a rapid pace being driven by increasing usage in automotives, electrical and electronics, and high temperature applications.

With the huge market potential and the growing demand, the global engineering plastics market is likely to witness considerable growth. The continued research and development in the field of engineering plastics is expected to provide new and interesting advancements in the emergence of new applications and expansion of existing applications for engineering plastics.
