These industries are witnessing significant growth in the GCC region, backed by increasing FDI (Foreign Direct Investment) and enhanced government support.

Top Challenges Impacting the GCC Expanded Polystyrene Market Growth

Mounting Use of Polyurethane as a Substitute for EPS – The growing popularity of polyurethane as a substitute material for EPS poses new challenges for the market players in terms of increased competition. The construction sector, i.e., a major procurer of EPS, is now slowly shifting toward polyurethane due to its better insulation performance & thermal properties. Similarly, it is also being used for manufacturing car seats, furniture, & other consumer goods. Hence, the surging demand for polyurethane as an alternative to EPS is likely to hinder the growth of the GCC Expanded Polystyrene Market in the coming years.
