Future Potential of Japan PVC Pipe and Fittings Market
The revenue from the Japan PVC pipes and fittings industry is projected to register modest growth over the period 2018-2022. It is projected to grow by CAGR of ~% over the period 2017-2022 and is expected to reach USD ~ million in 2022 as compared to USD ~ million in 2017. The increasing focus towards construction and infrastructural developments in Japan will result in an augmented demand for PVC pipes. It is foreseen that old residential buildings would be demolished and rebuilt in the near future which will result in major demand of PVC pipes from residential sector in upcoming years. In addition, PVC pipe used for the social infrastructures such as the municipal water supply pipeline and sewerage pipeline would start to end its design service life. It is estimated that discharge of End-of-Service Life PVC pipe may exceed 50 thousand tons in 2020, and 100 thousand tons in 2030 which will result in high demand for PVC pipes for replacing aged pipes.
