Global Chemicals & Materials Market - Industry Trends, Outlook, Regulatory Bodies & Regulations and Key Market Players

The chemicals & materials market consists of a number of components and sub components within its large portfolio. A distinct substance or compound that has been manufactured or purified artificially is called a chemical compound. A material is a compound from which some other complex materials can be made. Ceramics, adhesives, metals, composites, polymers, and glasses are among the most widely used materials. Chemicals are inorganic or organic building blocks used to manufacture various materials. Chemicals and materials separately or as a mixture find a wide range of application across various end-use industries such as automotive, power & energy, agriculture, food & beverages, instrumentation, consumer goods, aerospace & defense, healthcare, and IT. The global market has wide range of application areas; dental silicas, flow aids, crop protection, animal nutrition, active pharmaceutical ingredients, dietary supplements, preservatives, flame retardants, surface ingredients and matting agents among others.

Asia Pacific is expected to retain its dominance in the chemicals & materials market during the forecast period (2016 – 2024), spearheaded by China, India, and Japan due to rampant growth of end-use industries.

Chemicals & Materials Market Outlook – Surge in Electronics and Construction Chemicals Industries Augmenting Market Growth

The electronics industry is across the globe, especially in key regions such as North America, Asia Pacific and Middle East. This in turn, drives demand for electronic chemicals. PCB laminate, silicon wafer, specialty gases, and wet chemicals are some of the widely used electronic chemicals that are used in a wide number of applications such as computers, electronic circuit, diodes, capacitors, home appliances, and entertainment systems. Asia Pacific contributes the highest share in end user segments for electronic chemicals, which includes China, Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, and India. However, the markets in North America and Europe is expected to witness slower growth rate for the forecast period.

Population explosion in countries such as India and China, along with rapid economic growth in these countries has led to infrastructural development activities. This in turn creates a highly conducive environment for growth of the chemical materials market. Construction chemicals are used to enhance the quality of the structure, which includes resist dry heat, wet climate and fire protection. Various construction chemicals are available in the market, such as concrete admixtures, adhesives, and sealants. Growing urbanization is expected to be one of the key factor for growth in demand for construction chemicals and in turn fueling growth of the chemicals and materials market. North America and Europe markets are expected to witness moderate growth rate, due to stagnant economy of the developed countries. However, the market in Middle East is expected to witness significant growth due to high investment in infrastructure development and abundant raw materials reserves within the region.

Chemicals & Materials Market Challenges – Reduce Environmental Impact

Effective and eco-friendly mode of waste disposal is a key challenge faced by chemicals & materials manufacturing companies. All wastewater, gases, and semi-solid waste can only be disposed to the environment after undergoing a series of treatments. The Ministry of Environment and Forest (MoEF) of India, on December 23, 2010, implemented water prevention and control pollution act 1974 and air prevention and control pollution act 1981. This lays out a stringent regulatory framework for manufacturers and end users regarding production, import, export, and storage of hazardous chemicals & materials. This significantly increases costs associated with production, which in turn affects profitability of manufacturers in this highly competitive market, in turn inhibiting market growth.
