The emergence of advanced technologies, such as virtual reality, robotics, and IoT solutions, in the manufacturing of consumer electronic products to achieve high efficiency, will drive the market in North America. The entertainment and gaming application sectors have further boosted the growth of the consumer electronics industry in North America, thereby driving the demand for polycarbonate resins.

The U.S. accounted for a significant revenue share of the North America regional market in 2021. Manufacturers in the electrical and electronics industry are continuously upgrading smartphones, computers, laptops, smartwatches, and other consumer electronic devices, and home appliances to cater to the rising demand from the growing population. Polycarbonates have emerged as an alternative to replacing metal alloys by reducing the overall weight of the devices but simultaneously maintaining heat dissipation and toughness. Polycarbonate exhibits a good refractive index, which makes it suitable in lighting applications.

Rapid digitalization across industries in North America has propelled the consumer electronics market in the region. Polycarbonate is used for manufacturing enclosures for electronic and electrical components due to its higher flexibility, resistance against chemicals & high temperatures, insulating properties, and durability. Technological advancements and the rise of high-speed browsing have propelled telecom service providers to introduce technologies, such as 5G. This is further expected to propel the regional market growth in the years to come.

End-use Insights

The electrical enclosures end-use segment dominated the market in 2021 with a revenue share of more than 37%. Based on end-use, the market is categorized into electrical components, entertainment, IT electronics, electrical enclosures, fuse boxes, meter boxes, and lighting. The dependency on the internet and digital gadgets has increased in the past few years. The smart home concept in North America is witnessing growth due to the availability of wireless solutions enabling smartphones and tablets to wirelessly connect with smart appliances via the Bluetooth or internet and has been a major technological advancement in the home appliances market.

In electrical components, PC is used as a material in the manufacturing of electrical connectors, plugs, sockets, and wall plates. The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in the government imposing stay-at-home orders and companies also introduced work-from-home policies, which increased the consumption of electrical and electronic devices, such as laptops, smartphones, tablets, and internet service devices. This, in turn, further drove the polycarbonate market.

Country Insights

The U.S. dominated the market in 2021 accounting for more than 81% of the overall revenue. The country’s automotive industry has witnessed a rise in automotive production due to an increasing shift towards electrification of vehicles and the strategic initiatives undertaken by major automotive players to expand their production and reach within the country. This is expected to drive the product demand in the automotive lamps application.

Investments by the government of Canada for infrastructure development have boosted the growth of the construction industry in the country for commercial and residential structures. The Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program is delivering funding to communities through the Investing in Canada Plan. This program is expected to encourage infrastructure development in each of the provinces and territories in the country. This is anticipated to augment the demand for PC in the manufacturing of electrical connectors, plugs, sockets, wall plates, electrical enclosures, and electrical fuse & meter boxes used in residential and commercial buildings.

The strong presence of the world’s leading manufacturers in Mexico will drive the market growth in the country. Moreover, Mexico has been touted as the new capital of the automotive industry and is well-known for its availability of cost-effective wage laborers experienced in complex assembly. The Mexican government incentives and the country’s proximity to the world’s largest vehicle importer add to its appeal as a manufacturing location. The Center for Automotive Research notes that Mexico’s strong network of Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) also makes it appealing as a global export base. Polycarbonate is widely used in headlamps diffusers of passenger vehicles and commercial vehicles. Thus, the growing automotive sector in Mexico is anticipated to boost the product demand in automotive lighting applications.
