Biocides and disinfectants account for the second-largest product segment as they ensure the safety of manufacturing systems and operational efficiency by preventing the growth of microbes. North America and Europe are the mature markets for water chemicals.
INSIGHTS BY GEOGRAPHY
India, China, and Japan are the major consumers of specialty chemicals in APAC, accounting for USD 379.22 billion of the total revenue in 2020. The APAC specialty chemicals market is likely to reach USD 580.34 billion by 2026.
The demand for specialty chemicals has grown due to rapid urbanization, rising disposable incomes, and increasing industrialization of food, agriculture, cosmetics, textile, electronics, and other manufacturing sectors in APAC. The increasing demand for cosmetic products, the high demand for electronics products, the growing demand for adhesives and plastics from the packaging industry, and increasing installations of water treatment systems fuel the demand for specialty chemicals.
INSIGHTS BY VENDORS
The global specialty chemicals market is highly competitive and has a presence of both significant and regional players. Vendors focus on developing innovative products to support sustainability and expanding their product portfolio. Although established players dominate the market, growth opportunities for small players and new entrants also exist. They focus on capitalizing on the product portfolio that best suits the domestic requirement.
Due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the specialty chemical market has negatively been affected. With the spread of the coronavirus, several production facilities, including automobile, construction, textile, and other industrial products, were suspended temporarily. Therefore, the demand for chemicals has experienced a sharp decline.
To survive the intensive competitive environment, manufacturers need to introduce new or improved coating additives products to adapt to the constantly evolving market.
