Burning rubber: Recovery in the construction and automotive markets will boost demand

Plastic & Resin Manufacturing in the US

Molded for growth

While the prices of raw materials will remain volatile over the next five years, demand from the industry's key buying markets is expected to rebound as the economy recovers. Furthermore, demand for resins and synthetic rubber will be driven by stronger industrial production and construction activity. Finally, a recovery in automobile manufacturing will stimulate modest growth.

This industry is composed of establishments that primarily manufacture resins, plastic materials (i.e. polymers) and synthetic rubber. Key product groups include thermosetting resins, thermoplastic resins and synthetic rubber. Raw material inputs are sourced from other components from the chemical industry and from industries involved in the

production of petroleum-based feedstock.
