The global unsaturated polyester resin market involves the production and application of thermosetting resins made from unsaturated acids and glycols, primarily used in fiber-reinforced plastics, coatings, and construction materials due to their strength, chemical resistance, and cost-effectiveness. Market growth is driven by rising demand from automotive, construction, marine, and renewable energy sectors for lightweight, durable, and corrosion-resistant materials. Government initiatives promoting infrastructure development, industrial growth, and renewable energy adoption are encouraging UPR usage. Opportunities exist in the development of bio-based and low-styrene resins, sustainable composites, and advanced applications in electric vehicles, wind energy, and high-performance industrial components, expanding the market’s scope and adoption globally.
The maleic anhydride segment accounted for the largest share in 2024 and is anticipated to grow at a remarkable CAGR during the forecast period.
Based on the raw material, the global unsaturated polyester resin market is divided into maleic anhydride, phthalic anhydride, and others. Among these, the maleic anhydride segment accounted for the largest share in 2024 and is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period. This is because maleic anhydride’s high reactivity and glycol compatibility produce strong, corrosion-resistant, thermally stable resins, ideal for fiber-reinforced plastics, coatings, and construction applications.
The orthophthalic resin segment accounted for the highest market revenue in 2024 and is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period.
Based on the product type, the global unsaturated polyester resin market is divided into DCPD, orthophthalic, isophthalic resins, and others. Among these, the orthophthalic resin segment accounted for the highest market revenue in 2024 and is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period. This is because the orthophthalic resins are cost-effective, strong, chemically resistant, and versatile, widely used in construction, automotive, marine, and general-purpose composites for durable performance.
The building & construction segment dominated the market in 2024 and is projected to grow at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period.
Based on the end use, the global unsaturated polyester resin market is divided into building & construction, tanks & pipes, electrical, marine, transport, artificial stones, and chemicals. Among these, the building & construction segment dominated the market in 2024 and is projected to grow at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period. The market dominance is driven by UPR’s use in construction materials like pipes, panels, flooring, and roofing, offering durability, corrosion resistance, lightweight properties, and cost-effectiveness.
Asia Pacific is expected to hold the majority share of the global unsaturated polyester Resin market during the forecast period.
