INTRODUCTION
This chapter provides an introduction to this report, describing the study goals and objectives,
reasons for doing the study, intended audience, scope, methodology, information sources, and
analyst credentials for along with an introduction to BCC online services and disclaimer.
STUDY GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
The goal of this study is to help the readers form a comprehensive understanding of the recent
advances and trends in polyolefins manufacturing, applications, technologies, and global and
regional markets. For this goal, this report will provide in-depth analysis for the polyolefin resins
market, including polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) markets. PE includes low density
polyethylene (LDPE), linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) and high density polyethylene
(HDPE).
Four objectives in this report will be met. Major types of polyolefins and their future demand will be
described. Main technologies of polyolefin manufacturing will be discussed. Commercial
applications in which polyolefin resins are used will be discussed. Present consumption and future
demand for polyolefins will be evaluated for global markets by seven world regions: North
America, South America, Europe, China, Asia, Middle East and Africa, and the rest of the world
(ROW).

2. Trends in technology will be analyzed. The impact of governmental regulations and international
agreements will be ascertained. Patents of polyolefins will be discussed. The structural dynamics
of the polyolefin industry will be outlined, along with profiles of key manufacturers in the United
States, China, Japan, Korea, India, Brazil, France, Germany, Austria, Taiwan, and other countries
or regions.
This report will review global markets for polyolefins and will forecast trends and sales in these
markets through 2016. Important manufacturers, technologies and factors influencing demand will
be discussed.
The polyolefin market is closely relevant to the production and supplies of the olefin industry;
therefore, olefin production will be described. Catalysts are important materials for polyolefin
production and will be discussed.
BCC's goal in conducting this study was to determine the current status of the polyolefin industry
and to assess its growth potential over a five-year period from 2011 to 2016. A primary objective
was to present a comprehensive analysis of the current polyolefin market and project its future
direction.
REASONS FOR DOING THE STUDY
There are two reasons for doing this study:
•Polyolefin manufacturers need to understand the market trend and new technologies of the
industry, planning their investment, production, and research and development (R&D) for the next
five years or a longer period.
•Raw materials suppliers and catalyst manufacturers need to understand the polyolefin market
consumption and trends for planning their production and R&D for the next five years.
SCOPE OF REPORT
The report forecasts the size of the market in current U.S. dollars for polyolefin resins materials in
value terms for each material and/or volume terms from 2011 through 2016.
The report forecasts the market size or output of polyolefins such as PP and PEs. PEs includes
HDPE, LDPE and LLDPE. The forecasts are classified on the basis of product type, technology
type, application, catalyst types and geographical region.
The report also describes the raw materials supplies and important players in the polyolefin
industry.
METHODOLOGY
Estimates of current market demand are made for 2010 and are projected over the next five years.
Projections are made in terms of constant U.S. dollars (2010). Growth is presented in terms of a
compound average annual growth rate (CAGR). Prices are measured at the manufacturer level.
Resin price levels of late 2010 to mid-2011 are used to determine the market value, unless
specified otherwise. But factors that influence the price levels will be discussed.
