Specialty Chemicals Market value projected to expand by 2023

The competitive arena for specialty chemicals is extremely fragmented as most companies prefer to sign short term contracts for these chemicals from local manufacturers. BASF SE, The Dow Chemical Company, and Bayer AG - the top three providers of specialty chemicals in the world - collectively held only 10.6% of the market value in 2014.

While the top players hold a relatively smaller share in the specialty chemicals market, their rate of forward integration is very high. This allows them to ensure a consistent supply of specialty chemicals to high demanding regions.

At the same time, new entrants can expect to face strong competition from current players, according to Transparency Market Research. Existing players possess the advantage of economies of scale, thereby improving their cost-based competitive edge over new entrants.

APAC Raises Demand for Agrochemicals, Attracts More Specialty Chemicals Manufacturers

This applies especially to China and India who therefore become the key regions demanding agrochemicals.”

A high demand for specialty chemicals is also seen in Latin America due to a growing concern over product quality.

Demand for Coated Paper Reduces in North America and Europe, Denting Demand for Specialty Chemicals

Europe and North America are showing a significant reduction in the consumption of coated papers, causing a downturn for providers of paper chemicals in the two regions. Both regions are evolving in the sense of text and media and moving towards the digital medium for the dissemination of information and news. This is having a visible impact on the paper industry and consequently, the specialty chemicals players that focus on paper coatings.

Multiple paper coating manufacturers have had to change product types or even shut down due to the reduction in demand, which includes Resolute Forest Products, Inc., which had to shut down its Laurentide Mill in 2014.
