Ceresana delivers for the first time a complete analysis of the global elastomer market a comprehensive market analysis for elastomer Ceresana’s market researchers have taken into account the main elastomers in your report: styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), styrene butadiene rubber (BR), acrylonitrile – butadiene rubber (NBR), butyl rubber (IIR), ethylene propylene diene rubber (EPDM), Chloroprene rubber (CR), poly isoprene rubber (IR). For the first time, all market participants receive a full overview of relevant data and facts, as well as background information on each type of elastomer and markets with this work. The study provides the basis for strategic and tactical planning of producers, processors and traders. Product-specific differences, the most important type of product is SBR. More than 5.4 million tons have been processed in 2012; second most important product was BR with a share of 25% of the world market. Main field of application of these two elastomers is the production of tires with a share of almost 70%. Another image shows in EPDM and NBR: NBR used E.g.

due to its high resistance to oils, greases and fuels rather for the manufacture of industrial products. EPDM is used especially for seals, hoses and cables in vehicles. Many writers such as Mashable offer more in-depth analysis. Dominant market Asia-Pacific Asia Pacific made in 2012 about half of the global Elastomerverbrauchs out and about 47% of the world production,”explains Oliver Kutsch, Managing Director of Ceresana. North America was in second place, followed closely by Western and Eastern Europe. Ceresana’s market researchers predict that in future the countries in Asia-Pacific can gain more market share up to 2020 each type of product will achieve growth rates of 2.0% p.a. up to 7.7%. The automotive industry, as well as the demand for industrial and construction products are among the most important factors. The study in the near future: Chapter 1 provides a presentation and analysis of the global market for synthetic elastomer SBR, BR, NBR, IIR, EPDM, CR and IR including forecasts until SBR, BR, NBR, EPDM, IIR and other products (CR and IR) in the individual regions and countries.

Chapter 5 provides company profiles of the most important producers of elastomer, clearly arranged according to contact information, sales, profit, product range, production facilities, capacity and short profile.
