This report examines the scope, size, and growth of the global thermoplastic elastomers for motor vehicles industry in volume terms, and analyzes key trends by elastomer type, application, and region. Historical data are provided for 2009, 2014, and 2019, with forecasts for 2024 and 2029

This study analyzes the global industrial market for thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) by region and product. For the purposes of this study, a thermoplastic elastomer is defined as any thermoplastic material that exhibits elastomeric properties; TPEs therefore offer the functional performance characteristics of thermoset rubber but are processed using the methods and machinery of rigid thermoplastics.

TPEs covered in this report are:


  • copolyester elastomers (COPEs)
  • polyolefin elastomers (POEs)
  • styrenic block copolymers (SBCs)
  • thermoplastic polyolefins (TPOs)
  • thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs)
  • thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPVs)
  • specialty types

SBCs that do not exhibit elastomeric properties (i.e., high styrene products that contain roughly 60% or more styrene) are excluded from the scope of this study.

While TPOs and TPVs are “polyolefin elastomers” in a technical sense, they are defined separately for the purposes of this study. Furthermore, vulcanized olefin elastomers such as EPDM and ethylene-propylene rubber are not TPEs and are thus excluded.

Compounds with vulcanized elastomers are considered to be TPVs rather than TPOs. Various sources and manufacturers differ on the degree of vulcanization required to define an olefinic TPE as a TPV, so estimates of current global demand can vary.

For the purposes of this report, industrial TPEs are defined as those used in the manufacture of industrial products such as:


  • gaskets and seals
  • hoses and belts
  • other industrial goods (e.g., wheels on equipment, clamps, connectors, grommets, hand knobs, membranes, plugs)

Historical data (2009, 2014, and 2019) and forecasts for 2024 and 2029 are presented for industrial TPE demand in metric tons.
