South Africa to Dominate Africa Creosote Oil Market

South Africa is anticipated to dominate the creosote oil market in Africa during the forecast period. The creosote oil market in the country is projected to expand at a CAGR of more than 2.7% during the forecast period. The country accounted for major share of the creosote oil market in Africa in 2018. High share of South Africa can be ascribed to the presence of key manufacturers of creosote oil in the country. Additionally, countries other than South Africa do not have the facilities to treat timber using creosote oil. Rest of Africa constituted a relatively smaller share of the creosote oil market in Africa in 2018. This can be ascribed to the extensive usage of chromated copper arsenate (CCA) for the treatment of timber poles in countries in Rest of Africa. However, the sub-region is anticipated to offer lucrative opportunities for importers of creosote-treated poles in the near future due to the expanding building & construction sector in countries such as Zambia and Ethiopia. This is expected to drive the demand for creosote oil in Rest of Africa in the near future.
