Opportunities for the global specialty carbon black market to reach $2.6 billion by 2023

According to a new market report published by Lucintel, the future of the specialty carbon black market looks attractive with opportunities in the printing and packaging, building & construction, transportation, and industrial sectors. The global specialty carbon black market is expected to reach an estimated $2.6 billion by 2023 with a CAGR of 7.5% from 2018 to 2023. The major drivers of growth for this market are increasing demand for plastic and coating in the building and construction, packaging, and automotive industries.
In this market, specialty carbon black is used as pigment and performance additive for plastic, ink and coating applications. The plastic segment is expected to remain the largest application, and will witness the highest growth over the forecast period with growth in packaging, plastic pipe, film, and wire & cable.
Within the specialty carbon black market, printing and packaging will remain the largest end use industries, and they are expected to witness highest growth during the forecast period supported by increasing demand in the food and beverages, household products, personal care, and pharmaceuticals sectors.
Asia Pacific is expected to be the largest region by value and volume and will experience the highest growth over the forecast period supported by growth in plastic, ink, and coating demand in emerging countries, such as China and India.
Emerging trends, which have a direct impact on the dynamics of the industry, include the shifting focus of carbon black suppliers from commodity to specialty grade and increasing use of specialty carbon black as pigment in lightweight automotive parts. Orion Engineered Carbons Holdings, Birla Carbon, Cabot Corporation, China Synthetic Rubber (CSR), OMSK Carbon Group, Tokai Carbon, Continental Carbon, and Sid Richardson Carbon & Energy are among the major specialty carbon black providers.
