Polymer fillers are solid particles or additives that are mixed with polymers to modify their properties and improve their performance. They are typically added to polymer matrices during the manufacturing process to enhance various characteristics of the final product, such as strength, stiffness, impact resistance, thermal conductivity, and dimensional stability.
Polymer fillers can be organic or inorganic materials, including minerals, fibers, powders, and nanoparticles. Common types of fillers used in the polymer industry include calcium carbonate, glass fibers, talc, carbon black, silica, mica, and clay.
The global polymer fillers market size was estimated to grow from USD 45.24 Billion in 2015 to USD 53.10 Billion by 2020, at a CAGR of 3.3%. The use of low-density fillers in the automotive industry acts as a driver for the polymer fillers market. High-quality optical properties as well as improved impact strength and ability to replace expensive plastic resins are likely to drive the global polymer fillers market.

Asia-Pacific was the largest and North America was the second-largest market for polymer fillers in 2014. The Asia-Pacific region also registered the highest growth rate between 2015 and 2020. The high demand in Asia-Pacific is due to growth in the building & construction and packaging industries in the last few years. The Chinese market for polymer fillers is growing at a fast pace, primarily due to the growing manufacturing sector driving the consumption of plastics-related products, domestically.
