The Cross Linked Polyethylene (PEX) market has appeared as a prominent segment in the broader materials industry owing to its remarkable properties as well as applications. PEX is a type of polyethylene which is subjected to a chemical cross linking process. It is called PEX because it possesses greater strength, greater durability, flexibility, resistance to change in temperature and exposure to chemicals. The applications range from plumbing and heating systems to insulation and automotive parts. There is increasing demand of such innovative materials for construction industries which can easily withstand harsh demanding environments.

The market for Cross Linked Polyethylene is on the rise in the recent years due to growth in manufacturing technology and a wider span of applications. Construction, automotive and healthcare sectors are increasingly adopting PEX and are being highly attracted towards PEX due to its cost benefits relative to other materials along with performance. Adoption of PEX products represents a shift towards more sustainable and eco-friendly materials which is another positive trend towards the development of PEX products. Thus PEX focuses on R&D to improve the properties of PEX and increase its applications to sustain in changing world of industries.
