New Product Launch accounted for the largest share of all the strategic developments that took place in the silicone market between 2017 and 2020.

This will further boost high growth in markets, such as high-performance buildings, home and personal care, electrical and industrial, consumer goods and components assembly.

Wacker Chemie AG (Germany ) is another major player in the silicone market. In July 2019 , the company launched new silicone additives for thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs) under the brand name, Genioplast Pellet 345 during the K 2019 event in Dusseldorf, Germany . In June 2019 , the company expanded its silicone elastomer production in China with an annual capacity of 7,000 metric tons. This expansion will support Wacker's future growth path in China and improve the availability of HCR (High Consistency Rubber) in the APAC region.
