A significant development thrust for HDPE has been into bimodal grades for high performance film, pressure pipe, and blow moulding applications, and to a lesser extent injection moulding, wire and cable, and fibre applications. There is an increasing trend to bimodal products, where the combination of better processability, without the loss of mechanical strength, permits downgauging and a reduction in product profile or thickness. This report includes discussion regarding key market drivers and constraints of bimodal HDPE, as well as supply, demand and trade analysis for nine regions: North America, South America, Western Europe, Central Europe, Eastern Europe, Middle East, Africa, Asia Pacific, and China, including forecast. Analysis includes latest pricing trends and forecasts by region to 2035.
