Methyl methacrylate is used in the production of a variety of applications such as acrylic sheets, paints and coatings, and adhesives and sealants among others. The methyl methacrylate market is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. This can be attributed to growing demand from the construction industry for polymethyl methacrylate sheets and rising usage of methyl methacrylate in various commercial applications such as automotive body parts and signs. In addition, increasing investments in infrastructure and building & construction projects globally are expected to drive the consumption of methyl methacrylate.

Construction Industry Growth

The global construction industry growth has been steadily increasing over the past few years and this upward trend is expected to continue going forward. There has been rise in infrastructure development activities around the world with many countries investing heavily in building roads, bridges, airports, rail networks, and other construction projects. For example, China has ambitious plans for its belt and road initiative which involves infrastructure projects throughout Asia Pacific and Africa. Similarly, India has launched major infrastructure development programs like smart cities mission to modernize its cities. The growth in the construction industry naturally demands more building materials like cement, steel, glass, plaster, etc. Methyl methacrylate finds wide usage in construction primarily due to its excellent bonding properties. It is used as an adhesive for making floor tiles, countertops, and other interior finishing products. Many glass manufacturers also use methyl methacrylate based adhesives for bonding glass to other materials in facades, windows and other architectural glass products. Furthermore, increasing use of plastics in modern construction has opened up avenues for MMA. Plastic sheets made of MMA are finding increased application in construction of canopies, fences, and other structural elements due to their weather resistance, durability, and lightweight properties. Overall, the rising global construction expenditures, increasing plastic usage in construction coupled with ongoing urbanization and infrastructure development projects bode well for the demand of MMA in the coming years. The global methyl methacrylate market is anticipated to experience steady growth riding on the coat-tails of robust construction sector expansion worldwide. Countries with most aggressive infrastructure spending are likely to emerge as major markets for MMA in construction applications going ahead.
