Polymer clay is a versatile modeling clay that is used for sculpture and jewelry making. It consists of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) combined with various plasticizers and pigments. The key advantage of polymer clay over regular modeling clay is that it can be hardened when baked in an oven. This allows artists to create permanent, durable art pieces from their clay sculptures. Some popular uses of polymer clay include beads for jewelry, miniature replicas, figurines, and dimensional art. As an affordable and moldable medium, the polymer clay market has been witnessing steady growth over the years driven by rising crafting and arts & sculpture activities globally.
Market Dynamics:
The global polymer clay market is driven by the growth of the arts & crafts hobby industry. Rising demand for handmade items and growing interest of people in creative arts and sculpture has fueled the sales of polymer clay. Ease of use and durability of polymer clay make it a preferable medium for many artists. Moreover, the widespread availability of polymer clay modeling tutorials on internet has further popularized this material. However, strict environmental regulations over the use of PVC poses a challenge for market players. New product launches incorporating bio-based and non-toxic ingredients present an opportunity for the sustainable growth of this market.
