Njengemakethe yokugcina, ukwakhiwa bekulokhu kungomunye wabathengi abakhulu bepulasitiki kanye nezinhlanganisela ze-polymer. Uhla lokusetshenziswa lubanzi kakhulu, kusukela ophahleni, emadekini, kumaphaneli odonga, ezingcingweni nasezintweni zokufaka umswakama kuya kumapayipi, phansi, kumaphaneli elanga, eminyango namafasitela njalo njalo.                                                                                      

                                                  Ipayipi lepulasitiki elilula kulula ukulifaka, ukulisebenzisa nokulinakekela. Ukuguquguquka kwepulasitiki kusho nokuthi amapayipi epulasitiki angabhekana nokunyakaza kwenhlabathi.

Ucwaningo lwemakethe lwango-2018 olwenziwe yiGrand View Research lwalinganisa umkhakha womhlaba wonke ngamaRandi ayizigidigidi eziyi-102.2 ngo-2017 futhi lwabikezela ukuthi uzokhula ngesilinganiso sokukhula saminyaka yonke esihlanganisiwe esingamaphesenti angu-7.3 kuya ku-2025. Okwamanje, iPlasticsEurope ilinganisele ukuthi lo mkhakha eYurophu usebenzisa amathani epulasitiki angaba yizigidi eziyi-10 minyaka yonke, noma cishe ingxenye eyodwa kwezinhlanu zepulasitiki iyonke esetshenziswa esifundeni.

Idatha yakamuva ye-US Census Bureau ikhombisa ukuthi ukwakhiwa kwezindlu zangasese zase-US kuye kwanda kusukela ehlobo eledlule, ngemuva kokwehla kusukela ngoMashi kuya kuMeyi njengoba umnotho wehla ngenxa yobhubhane. Ukwanda kwaqhubeka phakathi no-2020 futhi, ngoDisemba, ukusetshenziswa kwemali yokwakha izindlu zangasese kwakhuphuka ngamaphesenti angama-21.5 kusukela ngoDisemba 2019. Imakethe yezindlu yase-US - eqiniswe amazinga enzalo aphansi emalimboleko yendlu - kulindeleke ukuthi iqhubeke nokukhula kulo nyaka, ngokusho kweNational Association of Home Builders, kodwa ngesivinini esiphansi kunonyaka odlule.

Noma kunjalo, ihlala iyimakethe enkulu yemikhiqizo yepulasitiki. Ekwakhiweni, izinhlelo zokusebenza zivame ukwazisa ukuqina futhi zihlala isikhathi eside, ngezinye izikhathi zihlala zisetshenziswa iminyaka eminingana, uma kungenjalo amashumi eminyaka. Cabanga ngamafasitela e-PVC, i-siding noma i-flooring, noma amapayipi amanzi e-polyethylene nokunye okunjalo. Kodwa noma kunjalo, ukusimama kuyinto ephambili neyinhloko yezinkampani ezithuthukisa imikhiqizo emisha yale makethe. Inhloso kokubili ukunciphisa imfucuza ngesikhathi sokukhiqiza, kanye nokufaka okuqukethwe okwengeziwe okuphinde kwasetshenziswa emikhiqizweni efana nophahla kanye ne-decking.

                                                                                                                                                         

                                                                                                                                            Amathayela e-vinyl asezingeni eliphezulu angu-02 asetshenziswa njenge-flooring

Ukubeka phansi kungenye indlela ekhula ngokushesha yokusebenzisa i-vinyl ekwakheni izindlu kanye nezentengiselwano. Nakuba i-vinyl ebukeka ishibhile futhi iwusizo ibilokhu isetshenziswa ekuphahleni iminyaka eminingi, izindlela ezintsha zokukhiqiza ziyasiza ekukhuliseni ikhwalithi kanye nesithombe somkhiqizo ukuze ukwazi ukulingisa eduze ukuqeda ngokhuni noma ngamatshe ngenkathi usathambile ngaphansi kwezinyawo, uqinile futhi kulula ukuwuhlanza.Ucwaningo olulodwa lwemakethe lwango-2019 luveza ukuthi imakethe yephansi yama-vinyl tile (LVT) izokhula isuka ku-$18 billion ngo-2019 iye ku-$31.4 billion ngo-2024, okubhalisa izinga lokukhula lonyaka elihlanganisiwe elingamaphesenti angu-11.7 kusukela ngo-2019 kuya ku-2024.▲Ngokuphathelene nenani nobuningi, phakathi nesikhathi sokubikezela kusukela ngo-2019 kuya ku-2024, kulinganiselwa ukuthi isifunda sase-Asia-Pacific sizoba nesabelo esikhulu kunazo zonke emakethe yephansi yamathayili e-vinyl asezingeni eliphezulu (LVT).
