The rapidly expanding construction industries in China and India to become the main drivers of PVC consumption growth over the medium term. in India, construction growth has been accelerated significantly due to the government's "Housing for All" program. Domestic PVC production cannot fully meet the high demand in India, so more than half of the consumed PVC is imported. (IndexBox estimates)
