The PVC-UE Cellular Foam Profile (Roofline) Industry Report in the UK & Ireland: Market & Forecasts to 2012


Description: The construction industry is in the grip of the recession, house building has been severely cut back and householders are nervous of spending on repair and maintenance of their properties. How is the market likely to develop in the near future? What are the market trends, forecasts and product developments?

This report is updated annually and contains key information on:

- Volumes – expressed as company throughput of raw material – past, present and future,

- Market values and price per tonne,

- Volume of twin wall hollow soffit by company expressed as tones,

- Industry structure and players,

- Volumes and values of imports and exports,

- Numbers of extrusion lines by company,

- Production yields,

- Industry supply & demand balance,

- Technical and environmental review.

- House building, repair, maintenance and improvement (RMI) and industrial construction in the UK and Ireland

Importantly in today’s climate the Cellular Foam (Roofline) report includes an extended industry forecast. The forecast takes a detailed and comprehensive look at expected volumes for Cellular Foam products to 2012.

With over 12 years of detailed trends this report is the recognised source of information on the UK and Irish markets. Whether your business is in PVC-UE cellular foam building products, raw materials, distribution, machinery sales or in a related industry this report is essential reading.

Companies already involved in the roofline sector, intending to be involved in the future or are in competition to PVC-UE in the roofline sector will almost certainly increase their understanding of the roofline sector with this report.

This report concentrates on the PVC-UE cellular foam and PVC-U twin wall hollow soffit building products profile market in the UK and the Republic of Ireland. It combines information from extensive personal and telephone interviews with companies in the UK and Ireland. These were carried out during the first half of 2009. Key respondents were:

- PVC-UE cellular foam profile system companies;

- Polymer manufacturers;

- Compound manufacturers;

- Extrusion machinery manufacturers;

- Additive suppliers (one pack and impact modifiers);

- Trade laminate foilers.

Additionally information has been obtained from published company reports, business journals, web sites, official statistics issued by Government agencies and a number of other surveys, both published and unpublished.

The information presented in this report is believed to be the most comprehensive study of this industry to date. Much of the information has been provided to us in detail and on a confidential basis, such that we are able to use it to compile the trends and build up a model of the industry.
