This is a market research report on global polyoxymethylene (POM) covering market size, forecast to 2030, industry drivers and restraints, segmentation by type, process and end-use, regional analysis and key vendors.
Overview
The global Polyoxymethylene Market was valued at about USD 4.48 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow to USD 6.20 billion by 2030, registering a compound annual growth rate of around 5.6 percent through 2025-2030. This growth is being fueled by rising demand for high-performance thermoplastic resins in industries such as automotive, electronics, medical devices and packaging.
One of the key growth drivers is the automotive sector. Automakers are increasingly replacing traditional metal components with lightweight plastics to meet stricter emission norms and improve fuel efficiency. Polyoxymethylene (also known by names such as acetal or polyacetal) offers high stiffness, wear resistance and dimensional stability, making it an attractive alternative to metal in parts like gears, fuel system fittings and door hardware.
In the medical and packaging industries, too, POM is finding wider applications. In medical devices, it is being used in precision components such as inhalers, diagnostic equipment parts, and surgical devices due to its stability, dimensional precision, and ability to withstand sterilization. For packaging, it enables durable closures, dispensing systems and food-contact grade applications where mechanical strength and chemical resistance matter.
Flexible plastic packaging is seeing strong expansion worldwide. As demand for lighter, cost-effective and functional packaging rises, more producers are turning to advanced polymers such as polyoxymethylene to fulfil requirements for durability under stress, while maintaining design flexibility.

The report segments the market by type (homopolymer vs copolymer), processing method (including injection molding, extrusion and blow molding), grades (standard, reinforced, impact-modified, recycled), end users (such as automotive, electrical & electronics, aerospace, medical & healthcare, packaging) as well as geography (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America/Rest of the World).
Still, the market is not without its challenges. Environmental concerns persist due to POM and its non-biodegradable nature and the risk of formaldehyde release on degradation. Meanwhile, cheaper alternatives like polypropylene and nylon limit adoption in cost-sensitive segments. To address this, manufacturers are investing in more sustainable solutions. Innovations such as bio-based POM grades and advanced recycling techniques are opening new opportunities for growth and differentiated positioning.
By region North America holds a major share of the polyoxymethylene market, buoyed by aerospace and packaging applications, with government-led initiatives encouraging use of lightweight materials. Europe is another important market, driven by automotive demand and increasing use of medical-grade POM in regulated markets. Meanwhile Asia-Pacific is estimated to see robust growth (CAGR of 6.8 percent from 2024 to 2030), thanks to expanding automotive output in China and rising construction activity in India.
