Polyethylene is commonly used in a wide range of applications, including packaging, medical, consumer, and insulation products. It is a processed thermoplastic. Like all thermoplastics, polyethylene starts flowing above its melting point and loses its desirable mechanical characteristics, limiting its high-temperature operation. It is, thus, cross-linked to alter its nature from thermoplastic to thermoset and to form a plastic that is more temperature-resistant with enhanced mechanical strength.
Market Segmentation
Cross-linked polyethylene, frequently known as PEX or XLPE, is a cross-linked type of polyethylene. It is made up of tubing and is mainly used for the construction of pipework structures, hydronic radiant heating, and cooling systems, water piping, and high-voltage electrical cables insulation.
The PEX (crossed-linked polyethylene) market can be divided based on segments like type, process, technology, and application.

The industry can be divided on the basis of its type as high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and Low-density polyethylene (LDPE), among others. The industry can be divided based on its processes as chemical and physical. The industry can be categorised based on its technology as PEXA (peroxide method), PEXB (silane method), and PEXC (e-beam method). The industry can be broadly categorised based on its application into:
- Wires and Cables
- Plumbing
- Automotive
- Medical
- Chemical Industry
- Others
The EMR report looks into the regional markets of PEX (crossed-linked polyethylene) like North America, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and the Asia Pacific regions.
Market Analysis
The PEX (crossed-linked polyethylene) industry is driven primarily by the automotive and construction sectors in the Asia Pacific, primarily in India, China, Japan, South Korea, and the countries of Southeast Asia. During the forecast period, the implementation of wires and cables is projected to lead the PEX (crossed-linked polyethylene) industry. PEX is commonly used in energy wires of all voltage ranges as electrical insulation, although it is more suitable for applications of low and medium voltage. PEX is the most popular polymer insulation material that is weather, heat, and moisture resistant. To transfer energy securely and effectively, it offers better protection for copper cables. Therefore, the growing demand from these applications is anticipated to drive the PEX (crossed-linked polyethylene) industry over the forecast period.
