Market Insights
Growth of the agricultural sector in India provides an opportunity for the India PVC pipes market
About 58% of India's population depend on agriculture considering it as a primary source of income. Agriculture, forestry, and fishing in combination account for Rs.18.53 trillion (US$ 271.00 billion) in FY18. Further, the agriculture sector in India is poised to generate better momentum in the forthcoming years owing to increased government investments in agricultural facilities such as irrigation systems, warehousing, and cold storage. Further, the growth in domestic income, along with rising demand for food, is going to pose a burden on the country's agricultural sector, which further would propel the India PVC pipes market growth. Also, the adoption of various key trends in the agriculture industry, such as the rise in exports, increase in private participation in agriculture, and the use of information technology are further expected to stimulate the growth of the agricultural sector. The demand for better irrigation facilities and better form of infrastructural set-up has raised the use of PVC pipes for various agricultural applications. This fact has impacted the India PVC pipes market positively. PVC pipes have high tensile strength, ductility, endurance toward extreme temperature conditions, and resistance over corrosion which makes them ideal for agricultural applications. Further, the PVC pipe is quite economical and versatile as these can be used in numerous structures driving the growth of the India PVC pipes market.
Rising acceptance of CPVC pipes is expected to drive the growth of India PVC pipes market
CPVC (Chlorinated polyvinyl chloride) is a kind of thermoplastic formed by chlorination of the polyvinyl chloride resin. It is chemically composed of two carbon atoms bonded together with two hydrogen atoms and two chlorine atoms single-bonded to the carbon. These pipes are available in nominal pipe size and copper tube size. They are known for several features such as lightweight, ease in transportation, availability in different sizes, long-term reliability, and durability. Moreover, these pipes are quite resistant to corrosion and have an extended service lifespan. CPVC possesses the capability to handle extreme temperatures up to 200° Fahrenheit, which exhibits comparatively greater flexibility than PVC. The increase in the demand for such pipes in various sectors such as irrigation, sanitation, and building construction is driving the growth of the India PVC pipes market. Further, the increasing government expenditure and investment towards housing and sanitation, building and construction, irrigation, and environmental protection activities through schemes such as housing for all and making 100 smart cities are intended to open immense opportunities for India PVC pipes market players to maintain sustainable growth in future.
Raw Material Insights
Based on the raw material, the India PVC pipes market is segmented into PVC resin, stabilizers, plasticizers, lubricant, pigment base, and others. Among these stabilizers is expected to grow at the highest CAGR of 5.0% during the forecast period. PVC molecules are sensitive to UV light and heat, which leads to the disruption of their stability. The heating of PVC results in the breakage of polymeric chains and the liberation of hydrochloric acid gas. This hydrochloric acid catalyzes the degradation process, which results in large quantities of corrosive hydrochloric acid (HCl) and other toxic gases. Stabilizers are used to prevent such degradation of PVC. Most stabilizers contain metals, mostly in the form of salts, which react with hydrochloric acid and inhibit further degradation. Stabilizers can also be offered in the combination of two or more metals, and such combined variants provided protection against UV radiation. Calcium-Zinc-based (Ca-Zn) stabilizers are prevalently used in many flexible and rigid PVC applications. Ca-Zn stabilizers provide good mechanical and electrical properties, a high degree of clarity, and excellent organoleptic properties to the final products. Stabilizers aid PVC pipes to withstand heat and UV light in outdoor applications. The growing importance of PVC pipes having good processibility and PVC compatibility has led to the demand for stabilizers in the India PVC pipes market.
Application Insights
The India PVC pipes market by application has been segmented into irrigation, water supply, sewerage, plumbing, HVAC, and others. The irrigation segment led the India PVC pipes market with a market share of 27.2% in 2018. Further, it is expected to garner a 28.5% share by 2027. The PVC pipe is widely used in the agriculture sector for irrigating farms and fields as they are tough, durable, and economical, as well as have a long life. They are commonly used between the valves on the main water line and sprinkler head. They aid in transporting or conveying water from main lines to sprinkler or drip irrigators. Rigid PVC pipes are also suitable for underground installation, where they are protected from steep temperature variations and hazards posed by farming operations, farm animals, and traffic. As PVC pipes are designed to be pressure-resistant, they are leak-proof and help in conserving water making them ideal for use in agriculture and farming processes. The growing network of irrigation canals, as well as the development of new water reservoirs and dams, in India, is anticipated to support the growth of the PVC pipes in India during the forecast period. However, owing to its rigidity, PVC pipes are known to crack and shatter in freezing temperatures. This tendency to crack at low temperatures is expected to limit the application of PVC pipes in the irrigation sector to some extent.
