The global Phenolic Plastic market size is predicted to grow from US$ 15848 million in 2025 to US$ 23484 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.8% from 2026 to 2032.

Phenolic plastic, also known as phenolic resin?based plastic, is a thermosetting polymer produced by the condensation reaction of phenol (or substituted phenols) with formaldehyde, forming a cross-linked material with high heat resistance, dimensional stability, flame retardancy, and excellent electrical and chemical insulation properties. The supply chain begins upstream with petrochemical feedstocks (benzene ? phenol, methanol ? formaldehyde), followed by resin synthesis by chemical manufacturers producing novolac or resol phenolic resins; midstream processors compound these resins with fillers such as wood flour, paper, cotton fabric, glass fiber, or carbon fiber to create molding compounds, laminates, and prepregs; downstream, fabricators mold, laminate, or machine phenolic plastics into finished components used in electrical insulation, automotive parts, aerospace structures, industrial equipment, construction panels, and consumer appliances, before distribution to OEMs and end-use industries worldwide. In 2025, the global phenolic plastic market records an annual production volume of about 4.8 million tons against a global production capacity of approximately 6.3 million tons per year, with average unit prices ranging from USD 2,800 to 4,400 per ton and an industry gross margin of around 28%.
