The impact of Covid-19 on the global polycarbonate sheets market was moderate and witnessed a moderate decline in the growth rate in 2020-2021. The moderate decline is attributed to the decrease in demand of the solid, multiwall, and corrugated polycarbonate sheets that are used in building & construction, electrical & electronics, aerospace & defence, and automotive & transportation industries.
The Covid-19 lead to the decrease in demand from various end-use industries such as, building & construction, electrical & electronics, automotive & transportation, and few other industries. Also, pandemic has adversely impacted new construction and aftermarket because construction activities were completely shut down initially but started to re-open in Q3 with COVID-19 operational measures. The disruptions in supply chain impacted the availability of workforce and raw material. As the economies are now open completely and are getting stable, there is traction in the demand from end-use industries, which in turn is expected to increase the demand of polycarbonate sheet.
The polycarbonate sheets find application in various end-use industries due to their exceptional physical and chemical properties. Thermoplastic polymers are preferred in the automotive industry due to the growing demand for lightweight, high performance, and recyclable materials for exterior and interior parts applications.
The increase in investment for infrastructure development from governments of various emerging countries, such as China and India, is leading to a rise in construction activities in these countries. The growth in number of construction projects is directly proportional to the growth in demand for roofing solutions in both residential and industrial construction sectors. Thus, the increasing demand for transparent roofing products from the building & construction industry is attributed to the growth of the polycarbonate sheets market.
Owing the excellent properties, polycarbonate sheets are increasingly used in different applications. However, they contain bisphenol A, which is not suitable for application in the food industry. The polycarbonate sheets are not so environmentally friendly and cause threat to environment as they are not biodegradable. CDs, DVDs, automotive components, and building roofing systems, are manufactured using polycarbonate sheets but the accidental dumping of these polycarbonate sheet waste materials in riverbeds or sea poses a serious threat to aquatic life.
The difficulty faced in the recycling of polycarbonate materials is a big concern. According to The Society of the Plastics Industry the Resin Identification Code (RIC) (for implementation in the recycling of plastics of polycarbonate materials) is seven, which implies that these materials are difficult to recycle. Moreover, the recycled polycarbonate sheets display a lower impact resistance compared to newly manufactured polycarbonate sheets.
The technological advancements in manufacturing and fabrication of glow signboards and ID cards will create new opportunities for polycarbonate sheet market. For example, laser engravings are used to store information on cardholders, and Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) embedded into ID cards to help in the automatic identification and tracking of cardholders. A wide range of plastics, including polycarbonate sheets are used to manufacture these cards as they are durable and temperature resistant. These properties make polycarbonate sheet-based ID cards more effective and suitable for use in various working conditions or environments.
The suitability and use of polycarbonate materials in ID cards is creating an opportunity for the polycarbonate sheets market in South America, Africa, and Asia. The regions are amending social security cards and other mandatory governmental cards. The polycarbonate sheets are also used in glow sign boards for different exterior and interior applications as these materials are lighter and more durable.
The price of end products is highly impacted by the price and availability of raw material. Crude oil is one of the major raw materials that used in the production of polycarbonate. In recent years, volatile crude oil prices have impacted the prices of polycarbonate sheets and the current war between Russia and Ukraine has further impacted the price. The price-sensitive customers and import threats affect the suppliers of polycarbonate sheet. These factors are posing a major challenge for the manufacturers of polycarbonate sheets.

Solid polycarbonate sheets provide extraordinary impact resistance & durability and often used in place of glass across various applications. They are lightweight in comparison to glass and are quite effective in light transmission. The impact strength of polycarbonate sheets is two hundred times more than common glass and about ten times stronger than toughened glass. These properties make solid polycarbonate sheets suitable for wide range of applications thus propelling the global demand.
The building & construction industry is projected to be the largest end-use industry segment of the polycarbonate sheets market in 2020. Polycarbonate sheets exhibit desirable physical properties, such as high strength, excellent uniformity, increased ductility, and are lightweight and easy to use. Polycarbonate sheets are preferred by architectural designers as building materials over other substitutes as these sheets help in reducing construction time, lower overall construction cost, and enable the execution of innovative structural ideas. The construction industry is growing at a high pace in the Asia Pacific region. This growth is attributed to high industrial growth in the region. Thus, growth in emerging economies is also offering lucrative opportunities for the construction end-use industry segment of the polycarbonate sheets market.
Asia Pacific has two high-growth economiesChina and India. The region is the most promising market for polycarbonate sheets and the growth can be attributed to the increasing production by the manufacturing sector to cater to the domestic and rising export demand for high-quality products. Besides, the surge in end-use industries in the region is giving rise to research and developments and new innovations in polycarbonate sheets, thus propelling the demand of the polycarbonate sheets in APAC market.
The polycarbonate sheet market is dominated by a few globally established players such as SABIC (Saudi Arabia), Covestro AG (Germany), Trinseo S.A. (US), Teijin Limited (Japan), Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Company, Inc. (Japan).
