Thailand Bitumen Market Synopsis

The Thailand bitumen market is expected to expand at a considerable CAGR during the forecast period 2020-2026. Bitumen is primarily used in road construction and other repairs of asphalt pavements, due to its high water resistance, durability and low cost. Its excellent adhesive properties also make it ideal for roofing insulation products. The increasing number of government initiatives across the nation towards infrastructure development will further drive the demand for bitumen in Thailand over the coming years. Furthermore, rapid urbanization has boosted construction activities within the country which have been positively impacting the growth of this industry as well.

Market Drivers

The Thailand government has taken several initiatives such as introducing special economic zones (SEZs) that enable foreign investors to invest in industrial projects with tax benefits, aiding both domestic and international investments in various sectors including construction & infrastructure sector that ultimately fuels up demand for bitumen from this region. With expanding population and growing economy there is an increased focus on developing residential facilities leading to rise in investment on housing development projects which increases demand for all types of building materials including bitumen thereby driving its market growth here significantly. Growth in automobile industry along with rising disposable income are contributing towards significant expansion of roads network within Thailand resulting into higher need for asphalt paving thus indirectly stimulating usage of bitumen here significantly .

Challenges of the Market

Governments across many countries have implemented stringent environmental regulations regarding emission limits from vehicles using petroleum based fuel grades like bitumens which can impede their sale prospects negatively impacting overall sales revenue generated by them.Moreover these restrictions might even lead to closure or restriction on operations or production capacities at certain sites thereby hindering potential growth opportunities associated with such regions .Bitumens are produced through very complicated refining process, seeing their complex manufacturing procedure they are quite expensive when compared to alternatives available out there making them less attractive option among buyers looking forward economize costs while procuring raw material mainly used in pavement applications .

Covid-19 Impact on the Market

The Covid-19 pandemic has had a significant effect on the Thailand bitumen market. As transportation and construction activities were stopped or limited to prevent its spread, demand for bitumen reduced drastically. Furthermore, disruptions in the supply chain due to lockdowns further increased volatility in prices.

Key Players of the Market

However, as restrictions are slowly being lifted and economic activities resumed, there is some hope that bitumen demand will pick up soon. Currently India is one of Thailand key export markets for bitumen with major suppliers in this region including PTT Global Chemical PCL (PTTGC) and Bangchak Corporation PCL (BCP). Other noteworthy players are IRPC Public Company Limited (IRPC), Rayong Refinery Co., Ltd.(RRC) and Siam Bitume Company Limited (SBL).
