This strategy accounted for the largest share among all the strategies adopted by the market players. The physical properties of petroleum resins such as high chemical resistance, pressure resistance, low molecular weight, and water miscibility are boosting its use in the adhesives & sealants, paints & coatings, printing inks, rubber compounding, tapes & labels, and others applications. Moreover, the use of petroleum resins is environmentally safe. These aspects have encouraged companies to adopt the strategy of expansion in the petroleum resins market. Some of the leading petroleum resins makers such as ExxonMobil Corporation (U.S.), Total CrayValley (U.S.), Eastman Chemical Corporations (U.S.), are adopting this strategy to develop their businesses, globally.

Besides expansions, the companies have adopted the strategy of new product launches; investments; and mergers to expand their market share and distribution network. These strategies also accounted for a significant share of the total number of growth strategies adopted by the players in the global petroleum resins market between 2011 and 2016.
