COVID-19 Impact:

Singapore government has spontaneously announced the lockdowns to prevent the spread of the virus that has shut down several manufacturers. Due to the lockdown production in Silicone Market is stopped, and this factor directly affected Singapore’s economic growth. Additionally, the manufacturer stopped operations not only because of government restrictions but also because of declining demand, supply chain disruptions, and employee safety during the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the price of raw materials has risen due to supply chain disruptions, which in turn has led to an increase in the price of silicone.

Singapore Silicone Market Dynamics:

Silicone's high resistivity and efficiency are driving the market. Silicone's unique features, such as its ability to conduct electricity, have dealt a huge blow to the Singapore market. The growing population of Singapore and the availability of advanced new technology in the market are both beneficial to the country's market growth. Silicone's strong nature ensures that it does not harden, crack, peel, crumble, rot, or become brittle with age, and it also insulates, waterproofs, and coats, all of which contribute to the material's established market position. Silicones are also recognized for having a smooth feel, low surface tension, and anti-foaming qualities, as well as not causing skin irritation. As a result, the market will be able to reach the personal care, deodorant, and cosmetics industries. Silicone-based compounds, such as sealants, adhesives, and protective coatings, are robust, long-lasting, and water-resistant, making them popular in construction.

Raw material and energy price fluctuations are the major restraint for Singapore silicone manufacturers. Prices of raw materials such as silicon metal and methyl chloride climbed dramatically between 2016 and 2018, affecting the price of silicone. Several manufacturers had decreased their profit margins to maintain market share.  Additionally, strict government regulations prohibit the use of silicones in various end-use industries. The pandemic of covid-19 had a significant impact on the Singapore silicones market. Singapore's stated lockdown, social isolation, and government tough controls have caused industrial closures, prompted commercial activity, and harmed demand in the Singapore Silicones Market.
