3. Georg Fischer (Switzerland) and Advanced Drainage Systems (US) are the Major Players in the Thermoplastic Pipe Market

The thermoplastic pipe market is expected to grow from an estimated USD 2.7 billion in 2021 to USD 3.3 billion by 2026, at a CAGR of 4.5% during the forecast period. The increasing application of thermoplastic composite pipes and reinforced thermoplastic pipes in offshore and onshore production activities is the main driver for the thermoplastic pipe market. The growing deep and ultra-deepwater oil & gas exploration and production activities are expected to provide lucrative opportunities for the thermoplastic pipe market during the forecast period

A few major players that have a wide regional presence dominate the thermoplastic pipe market. The leading players in the thermoplastic pipe market include NOV (US), Wienerberger (Austria), TechnipFMC (UK), Georg Fischer (Switzerland), and Advanced Drainage Systems (US). The major strategies adopted by these players include new product launches, sales contracts, agreements, expansions, acquisitions, joint ventures, collaborations and investments. Expansions and sales contracts were the two most commonly adopted strategy from January 2016 to November 2021.
