The Chilean market for unsaturated polyester resin imports saw a notable shift in concentration levels from low to moderate in 2024, reflecting a changing competitive landscape. Despite a decline in growth rate from 2023 to 2024, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for the period 2020-2024 remained strong at 8.45%. Key exporting countries such as Brazil, China, Colombia, Turkey, and Argentina continue to play a significant role in supplying unsaturated polyester resin to Chile, indicating ongoing trade dynamics in the industry.

The unsaturated polyester resin market in Chile supplies resins used in the manufacture of fiberglass-reinforced plastics (FRP) for construction, automotive, marine, and other industries. It supports composite manufacturing and infrastructure development projects.
The growth of construction, automotive, and marine industries drives the demand for unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) in Chile. UPR serves as a versatile matrix material for manufacturing composite products such as fiberglass reinforced plastics, coatings, and adhesives, catering to diverse industrial applications.
In the Unsaturated Polyester Resin Market, material performance and sustainability are significant challenges. As unsaturated polyester resins are used in various applications such as composites, coatings, and construction materials, stakeholders must develop resins that offer high mechanical properties, chemical resistance, and environmental sustainability to meet market demands and regulatory requirements. Additionally, addressing concerns about resin curing kinetics, VOC emissions, and recyclability while optimizing material formulations and processing techniques pose ongoing hurdles for unsaturated polyester resin suppliers seeking to support sustainable and innovative applications in Chile industries.
In the context of composite materials manufacturing and construction, government policies related to the unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) market in Chile may involve regulations on resin formulation and handling standards, standards for composite product quality and performance, and incentives for manufacturers to invest in UPR recycling and waste reduction initiatives. Additionally, there may be initiatives to promote research and development of bio-based and recycled UPR materials for sustainable composites production, support for technology adoption and capacity-building programs in composite manufacturing industries, and collaboration with international partners to address environmental and regulatory challenges in the UPR market.
