ICIS Releases the World Plastics Annual Study 2015 Version
LONDON, October 14, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --
ICIS, a leading authority on global petrochemical markets, has published the latest version of the World Plastics Annual Study.
The plastics industry has experienced steady, progressive growth since the 2008-2009 financial crisis, driven by Asian consumption and, more recently, higher margins following the crude oil price crash. Whilst the global outlook is positive, growth will be stronger in certain regions and commodities, and dependent on the fragile recovery of key markets.

Offering in-depth analyses of plastics and their direction, the annual studies harness data from the ICIS Supply and Demand Database, accompanied by expert insights from ICIS analysts. Designed to give you a clear picture of the current market situation and outlook, the studies can help you understand the impact of recent developments on your business, and develop a robust strategy for the future.
'For many years, the growth of plastics markets was driven by consumption in Asia - particularly China. However, as the Chinese economy falters, it's crucial for industry players to take stock of the markets, understand the evolving competitive landscape and identify emerging regions to target. The ICIS Annual Studies dig deep into key commodities and markets, enabling you to stay one step ahead.' said Fabrizio Galiè, ICIS Consultant, Polymers
The new World Plastics Annual Study from ICIS offers an extensive review of global plastics in the recent year, analysing data and trends since 2000, as well as the market outlook, with forecasts up to 2030. Providing insights into commodities, consumption, production, capacity and regional dynamics, it is designed to give you a well-rounded view of the industry:
- Supply and demand historical and forecast volumes (2000-2030)
- Capacity and production data, existing and upcoming (2000-2030)
- Consumption forecasts per product and region (up to 2030)
- Trade analysis - forecast trade flows, supply-demand balances
- Historical prices and margins (starting from 2000)
