Latest Report ON Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast, 2012 - 2018

Continuous glucose monitoring systems are real-time monitoring systems for checking glucose levels in the body. The system consists of a tiny sensor inserted under the skin to test glucose levels in the tissue fluid. The sensor stays in place for several days to a week and then must be replaced. A transmitter sends information about glucose levels via radio waves from the sensor to a pager-like wireless monitor. The key advantage of continuous glucose monitoring is that it can help identify fluctuations and trends that would otherwise go unnoticed with standard HbA1c tests and intermittent finger stick measurements. 

Development in the multi-parameter mid-range patient monitoring devices can create a new opportunity for further expansion. Collaboration with established local companies can be helpful for manufacturers to provide effective services and maintain profit margins simultaneously. Further cost reduction by integration of continuous glucose monitors with insulin pumps can be helpful for CGMs to achieve significant popularity among the price sensitive Asian consumers.

The CGM systems market is a highly specialized niche market; it can be further segmented into the market for transmitters-receivers and the one for glucose. The U.S. is contributing the maximum in terms of the total revenue earned from CGMs. The European market is still in a nascent stage and contributes a small amount to the total revenue. The Asia-Pacific region and Brazil also contribute very little to the global revenues. The CGM systems markets in the U.S and Europe are growing at a fast pace and estimated to reach to a three digit (in USD million) market size globally at a CAGR of double digits. The rapid increase in the number of diabetes patients is the major driving force for the estimated growth. The most important driver for the CGM market in Europe is the need for a convenient, affordable, and patient-friendly device that facilitates superior therapy management for diabetes and this need can be fulfilled by CGM devices. In the present scenario, the slow growth rate of the market in the Asian region is due to the late launch of CGM systems and a slow acceptance of these systems in low and middle income nations such as China and India due to the unaffordable price. In Japan and Australia, various regulatory approvals are a hindrance for the growth of the market.

New Report On Linear Alkyl Benzene Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast, 2012 - 2018

Linear alkyl benzene is primarily produced as intermediate when surfactants are produced for utilization in detergents. Linear alkyl benzene is derived exclusively from petroleum derivatives such as benzene & linear paraffin. Linear alkyl benzene is converted to linear alkyl benzene sulfonate which is a biodegradable surfactant. Alkyl benzene sulfonate is used as a surfactant in household & industrial detergents, in emulsifiers in agricultural herbicides, and as a wetting agent.

The global linear alkyl benzene market is segmented into America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia-Pacific, and Africa. The market share of North America and Europe are declining because new linear alkyl benzene production facilities are being set up in emerging economies to meet their increasing demand. The increasing demand for linear alkyl benzene in developing countries reflects their gradual shift from soaps to synthetic detergents. During the years from 2012 to 2018, the demand is expected to grow at a steady rate; however, the growth rate might vary according to the region.

To Read The Complete Report with  TOC :  http://www.marketresearchreports.biz/analysis-details/linear-alkyl-benzene-market-global-industry-analysis-size-share-growth-trends-and-forecast-2012-2018

The growing demand from the end-users of the Asia-Pacific region is driving the demand in the linear alkyl benzene market. Asia has emerged as the largest producer as well as consumer market of linear alkyl benzene / alkyl benzene sulfonate in the recent years. The Middle East continues to be a major net exporter for linear alkyl benzene/ alkyl benzene sulfonate. Studies carried out on linear alkyl benzene have also shown that it has no detrimental impact on the environment and human health, which drives the demand for linear alkyl benzene.

The decline in demand from mature markets of linear alkyl benzene such as North America, Western Europe, and Japan is a matter of concern. The demand for linear alkyl benzene is on the decline in these markets because manufacturers of detergents are coming up with detergents that contain fewer alkyl benzene sulfonates which have very less impact on its performance. The trend towards increase in the use of liquid detergent products from traditional powder detergent products, which were the major consumer of alkyl benzene sulfonate, is restraining the demand in the linear alkyl benzene market. 

The rate of the feed stock used i.e. benzene and linear paraffin can also hurt producers of linear alkyl benzene.

Some of the leading manufacturers of linear alkyl benzene include Amreya Petroleum Refining, Bisotun Petrochemical, CEPSA Quimica, Chemische Fabrik Wibarco, Chevron Phillips Chemical, Deten Quimica, Emalab, Formosan Union Chemical, Fushun Petrochemical, and Reliance Industries Ltd. (RIL).

Latin America - Mobile Voice, Data and Forecasts New Report By MarketResearchReports.biz

Social networks drive growth in Latin America’s smartphone market

Mobile penetration

Like the rest of the world, Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) is turning increasingly towards mobile solutions and away from the traditional telephone. In fact, the region is ahead of the world average, having reached an estimated 112% mobile penetration at end-2012 against a global rate of around 96%. However, over 80% of LAC’s mobile subscribers are on prepaid plans.

To Read The Complete Report with  TOC :  http://www.marketresearchreports.biz/analysis-details/latin-america-mobile-voice-data-and-forecasts

In South America, estimated mobile penetration at end-2012 was 123%. The highest penetration rates can be found in Suriname, Chile, Uruguay, Brazil, and Argentina. All countries have passed the 100% penetration mark except for Bolivia and Guyana.

In Central America, mobile penetration is slightly lower, with an estimated rate of 118% at end-2012. The mobile leaders are Panama and El Salvador. All countries have passed the 100% penetration mark except for Nicaragua.

Mexico and the Caribbean is the subregion with the lowest average penetration, the estimated rate being 82% at end-2012. The figure has been pushed down by Mexico, which has a vast population at 83% penetration, and even more so by Cuba, a sizeable country with an unbelievably low mobile penetration of only 14%. Other countries still below the 100% penetration mark include Haiti, Montserrat, Puerto Rico, and St Vincent & The Grenadines. On the other hand, some of the small island nations are the LAC mobile leaders, with exceptionally high penetration rates. The Cayman Islands, Turks & Caicos, the British Virgin Islands, Dominica, and Bermuda have topped 200% penetration. In these countries, however, subscription numbers are sometimes pumped up by tourists or migrant workers who are not counted as part of the population.

Smartphones

Seven Latin American countries are among the world’s top thirty in terms of Facebook users. Brazil has the highest number of active users in the region, while Chile has the highest ratio of users per capita. With penetration upward of 52%, more than one out of every two Chileans is, in fact, an active Facebook user.

The popularity of social networks is driving growth in a bourgeoning smartphone market. In most countries, conventional and low-cost phones are still the best sellers, but they are losing ground to the smartphone. Argentina and Chile are the region’s smartphone leaders. In 2012, these two countries reached a key milestone: for the first time, smartphone sales outstripped both feature phones and low-cost phones.

3G/UMTS mobile services

3G/UMTS services include phone-based browsing, access to email and social sites, mobile games, video calling, multimedia downloads, and mobile broadband. Several companies also offer mobile TV. UMTS technologies in Latin America include HSPA and HSPA+.

Practically all LAC markets have operating HSPA networks with the exception of Belize, Cuba, and a few Caribbean island nations. In February 2013, there were 90 HSPA networks operating in 37 LAC countries (up from 79 HSPA networks in 32 countries in early 2012), plus there were another 12 networks planned.

Latin America’s first HSPA+ networks were launched in July 2010 by Movistar in Chile and by Digicel in Bermuda. In February 2013, 55 HSPA+ networks had been deployed in 27 countries.

4G/LTE mobile services

Puerto Rico was the first country in Latin America to have mobile LTE: AT&T launched the service in November 2011, Claro (América Móvil) in December 2011, and CDMA operator Open Mobile in April 2012.

Uruguay was the region’s second country to enjoy LTE, at the hand of state-owned Antel, which launched the service in Montevideo and Punta del Este in December 2011.

In mid-2012, LTE mobile services were launched by UNE-EPM in Colombia and by Orange Dominicana in the Dominican Republic. Another five service launches took place in late 2012: Sprint Nextel, in Puerto Rico; Digicel, in Antigua & Barbuda; Movil de Entel, in Bolivia; Claro, in Brazil; and Telcel, in Mexico. In February 2013, there were 42 operators in the LAC region planning to launch LTE networks.

Major mobile operators in Latin America

Five multinational operators serve roughly 80% of LAC’s mobile market. They are: Mexico’s América Móvil, Telefónica of Spain, Telecom Italia, Luxembourg-based Millicom International Cellular, and Ireland’s Digicel.

América Móvil is the leader, followed by Telefónica. These two companies compete against each other in most of the region’s major economies. Between them, they serve about 61% of LAC’s mobile subscribers. América Móvil, owned by Mexican tycoon Carlos Slim, operates in 16 LAC countries. In Mexico, it uses the brand name Telcel, but in all other countries, it provides mobile services under the unified brand Claro. Spain’s Telefónica offers mobile services in 13 LAC countries, using the name Movistar in all markets except Brazil, where it operates under the brand name Vivo.

The remaining three multinational operators share a 19% share of LAC’s mobile subscribers. Telecom Italia operates in Brazil, Argentina, and Paraguay. Millicom provides mobile services branded Tigo in three Central American and three South American countries. Digicel is the leading mobile provider in the Caribbean.

Market Highlights

• Mobile penetration in LAC is higher than the world average.
• The popularity of social networks is driving growth in a bourgeoning smartphone market.
• Practically all countries in the region have operating 3G/UMTS networks, and in a few, 4G/LTE services have been launched.
• América Móvil and Telefónica between them serve almost one third of the region’s mobile subscribers.

Worldwide and China Lithium Iron Phosphate Material and Battery Industry 2012-2015 Latest study by MarketResearchReports.biz

In 2012, global lithium iron phosphate industry continued enjoying a strong development momentum. Regionally speaking, however, the growth of lithium iron phosphate industry claimed severe differentiation. In regions beyond China, since the EV industry, the biggest lithium iron phosphate battery consumption market, developed not as well as expected, industrial players are confronted with the risk of withdrawing from the market or even bankrupting as a result of increasingly growing loss. 

At the same time, in contrast, counterparts from Chinese mainland and Taiwan witnessed smooth development, thanks to mature lithium battery industry as well as developed EV industry. Thus, the lithium iron phosphate industry is increasingly shifting to mainland China and Taiwan. 

To Read The Complete Report with  TOC :  http://www.marketresearchreports.biz/analysis-details/global-and-china-lithium-iron-phosphate-material-and-battery-industry-report-2012-2015

In recent years, there have been a great many of enterprises embarking on the lithium iron phosphate business in mainland China. Coupled with constant capacity expansion, China’s lithium iron phosphate capacity continued rising. Owing to the fact that new comers lag behind in terms of production technology, product quality and production stability, both their real output and sales volume are well below the designed capacity. Equipped with strong technical force reserves and a great many of patents, Taiwanese enterprises featuring larger production scale are more competitive in the market. 

In 2012, China lithium iron phosphate battery market pattern made little change, claiming that lithium iron phosphate battery products makers failed to see explosive growth as previous years which signaled rational development tendency. In addition, the cardinal number of EV in China is relatively small, so the absolute amount is not large despite output spurt. Therefore, the EV industry has yet to become a strong pillar to spur on the demand for lithium iron phosphate battery products. In contrast, energy saving and communication fields are would-be lithium iron phosphate battery consumption market with huge potential. And it is only a matter of time before this becomes a reality. In general, the lithium iron phosphate battery industry is at the pre-boom stage and has yet to be full-fledged. 

The report touches on status quo of global and China lithium iron phosphate material and battery industry, highlights three trans-national enterprises including A123 Systems, Valence and Phostech, four Taiwanese ones such as Formosa, ALeees, Tatung Fine Chemicals and Hirose Tech as well as 22 mainland Chinese industrial players like Pulead Technology Industry Co., Ltd, Shenzhen Bei Terui New Energy Material Co., Ltd, Tianjin STL Energy Technology Co., Ltd. and BYD. 

A123 Systems, the industrial leader worldwide, is one among two enterprises in the world possessing key lithium iron phosphate patents. However, due to bleak market environment and poor management, the company had long been at a loss, yielding a fast-growing deficit until Jan.2013 when it was took over by Wanxiang Group.

Formosa is a well-known Taiwanese lithium iron phosphate producer that offers a large part of its products for customers from Chinese mainland. In 2011, it was the runner-up among lithium iron phosphate suppliers targeting mainland China when it comes to market share. In 2012, the company’s lithium iron phosphate capacity hit 4,800 t/a after capacity expansion, making it possible to become the largest lithium iron phosphate producer in Taiwan. And Formosa is projected to increase its capacity, of corporate planning, to 12,000 t/a by 2014 in an aim to become a would-be largest lithium iron phosphate producer the world over. 

BYD boasts the largest lithium iron phosphate battery maker in China. But the aggressive development policy in past two years shouldered much of the blame for its exacerbating profitability. After the rock bottom in 2012, the profitability of the company turned around in 2013Q1, with the net income surging by 188.9% year-on-year to RMB156 million. In 2013, the company’s sales volume of lithium battery-powered EV is estimated to record 8,000, a targeted year-on-year rise of 233.3%.

Worldwide Business Jet Market 2012-2016 New Report by MarketResearchReports.biz

This report provides detailed market analysis, information and insights into the Western European construction market, including:

• The Western European construction market’s growth prospects by sector, project type and type of construction activity
• Analysis of equipment, material and service costs across each project type in Western Europe
• Critical insight into the impact of industry trends and issues and the risks and opportunities they present to participants in the Western European construction market
• Assessment of the competitive forces facing the construction industry in Western Europe and profiles of the leading players

Executive summary

Western Europe experienced a severe financial crisis during 2008–2009 with economic activity in the region contracting sharply. Reflecting ongoing weakness in the region, real GDP has yet to rise above the pre-2008 level, with ongoing debt problems in most countries constraining growth, particularly in Greece, Ireland, Spain and Portugal. Budget deficits and government debt in several countries in the region are at alarming levels owing to the sluggish recovery from the economic crisis, which has led to record high unemployment levels. Public and private investment for new projects has declined significantly in the recent past. The construction industry in Western Europe recorded a CAGR of -5.94% during the review period, mirroring the subdued economic environment in the region.

Scope

This report provides a comprehensive analysis of the construction industry in Western Europe:

• Historical (2008-2012) and forecast (2013-2017) valuations of the construction market in Western Europe using the construction output method
• Segmentation by sector (commercial, industrial, infrastructure, institutional and residential) and by project type
• Breakdown of values within each project type, by type of activity (new construction, repair and maintenance, refurbishment and demolition) and by type of cost (materials, equipment and services)
• Analysis of key construction industry issues, including regulation, cost management, funding and pricing
• Detailed profiles of the leading construction companies in Western Europe

Key highlights

• The Western European construction industry recorded a CAGR of -5.94% during the review period. All construction markets registered negative growth in this period, largely as a result of the slowing down of the region’s economies following the financial crisis and the region’s debt troubles.
• Residential construction constituted the largest market in the construction industry, accounting for a 46.9% share of industry output in 2012. The residential construction market experienced a housing price boom before the financial crisis, driven by strong economic and income growth, low interest rates and increased competition among banks with regard to supplying credit. Property prices in general across the region fell sharply in 2008 and 2009 with, at best, gradual recoveries since then contributing to a still subdued property market. The residential construction market is projected to record only a marginal growth of 0.1% in 2013 but is expected to rebound in 2014.
• Infrastructure construction accounted for 22.3% of the overall construction industry output in 2012. Countries across the region have invested heavily in infrastructure construction, and while investment has slowed since the financial crisis, it remains high. Large investments in rail infrastructure development in most Western European countries will see rail infrastructure construction record the fastest growth of all infrastructure construction categories over the forecast period. All countries in the region are also committed to increasing the share of renewable energy in total energy consumption, and the category is set to receive healthy support.
• The commercial construction market was severely affected by the global economic crisis and the tightening liquidity situation. Prime retail space continues to exhibit high occupancy rates and stable rents. Similar to retail buildings, demand for high-quality office space is still strong in prime locations of major cities. Office space demand usually exceeds supply, as developers have been reluctant to invest in office space based on speculative demand.
• Government austerity measures have led to cuts in healthcare and education budgets across the region. Greece, Portugal and Ireland – the countries worst affected by the sovereign debt crisis – have implemented the largest cuts. Timetric expects institutional construction to record the slowest growth of all construction markets at a CAGR of 1.32%.
• Industrial construction was the smallest construction market in Western Europe in 2012. With a share of 7.3% in 2012, the market recorded a CAGR of -4.91% during the review period. Manufacturers face declining output and rising costs as a result of subdued domestic and export demand.
