The global speciality chemicals market is expected to grow from $712.64 billion in 2022 to $744.58 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.5%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The speciality chemicals market is expected to grow to $873.22 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 4.1%.
The specialty chemicals market consists of sales of antibiotics, adhesives, pesticides, cosmetic additives, and elastomers. Values in this market are 'factory gate' values, that is the value of goods sold by the manufacturers or creators of the goods, whether to other entities (including downstream manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors, and retailers) or directly to end customers. The value of goods in this market includes related services sold by the creators of the goods.
Specialty chemicals, also known as effect chemicals, are chemical products that offer a wide range of effects and are used by numerous other industrial sectors.
Asia-Pacific was the largest region in the speciality chemicals market in 2022. The regions covered in the speciality chemicals market report are Asia-Pacific, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, North America, South America, Middle East and Africa.
The main types of specialty chemicals are agrochemicals, dyes and pigments, construction chemicals, specialty polymers, textile chemicals, base ingredients, surfactants, functional ingredients, and water treatments. Agrochemicals refer to commercially manufactured synthetic or chemical compounds used in agriculture, in which the specialty chemicals are used in the manufacturing of fertilizers, herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides. The major sources are crude oil, naphtha, ethane, propane, butane, and wood. It is used in various applications such as industrial, construction, cosmetics and personal care, pharmaceutical, electrical and electronics, and mining and oilfield.
Increasing demand for high-performance coatings is expected to drive the growth of the specialty chemicals market going forward. High-performance coatings refer to the final two categories of protective coatings, which are specialized and specifically engineered to add to the structural integrity, soundness, and health impacts of buildings, building sites, and structures. High-performance coatings incorporate specialty chemicals to provide additional protection against environmental conditions such as moisture, high temperature, and airflow that have a huge impact on coatings and can have an impact on both interior and exterior spaces. For instance, in July 2022, The Sherwin-Williams Company, a US-based paint, and coating manufacturing company, announced its financial results for the second quarter, in which the combined net sales of paints and coats were $5.87 billion, a 9.2% increase over the previous quarter. The use of high-performance coatings by professional architects in coil and packaging operations was a major contributor to the increase in consolidated net sales. Therefore, the increasing demand for high-performance coatings is expected to propel the growth of the specialty chemicals market in the coming years.
Product innovation is a key trend that is gaining popularity in the specialty chemicals market. Major companies operating in the market are focused on research and development for product innovations to offer additional benefits and assist in a better yield.
