The global alkoxylates market has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $7.25 billion in 2023 to $7.68 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.0%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to various factors, including increasing demand from diverse industries, adherence to environmental regulations, population growth, urbanization, a shift towards green chemistry practices, and changing consumer preferences.
The global alkoxylates market is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $9.71 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.0%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to several factors, including the development of customized formulations, innovation in packaging materials, alignment with sustainable development goals (SDGs), a growing demand in the healthcare sector, and an increased use of alkoxylates in agrochemicals. Major trends expected in the forecast period include the influence of e-commerce, the adoption of renewable resources, a consumer shift towards eco-friendly products, the impact of stricter environmental standards, and the growth of alkoxylates in water treatment applications.
The upward trajectory in the demand for oil and gas is poised to significantly drive the growth of the alkoxylates market. The oil and gas industry encompasses various processes from resource exploration to refining finished products. Alkoxylates play a vital role in this sector as corrosion inhibitors and co-emulsifiers, meeting essential needs in oil and gas operations. With the burgeoning demand for oil and gas, the market for alkoxylates is expected to expand. For instance, as reported by the International Energy Agency in August 2021, global oil demand was projected to increase by an average of 5.3 million barrels per day, reaching 96.2 million barrels per day in 2021. Moreover, the global gas demand saw a substantial 3.6% increase in 2021, expected to further rise by 7% by 2024. This surge in demand for oil and gas is a prime driver behind the growth of the alkoxylates market.
The heightened demand for personal care products is set to propel the growth of the alkoxylates market. Personal care products, which encompass skincare, haircare, and oral care items, rely on alkoxylates as essential cleansing agents in shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers. The rising consumer expenditure on personal care products further corroborates this trend. For instance, the Bureau of Labor Statistics recorded a notable 12.3% increase in average consumer expenditure on personal care products, reaching $866 in 2022 from $771 in 2021. This surge in demand underscores the pivotal role of alkoxylates in personal care product formulations, driving the growth of the alkoxylates market.
Product innovation stands out as a prominent trend in the alkoxylates market. Key industry players are fervently focused on developing novel and innovative solutions to strengthen their market positioning. As exemplified by Oxiteno's launch of OXITIVE 8000 in June 2022, this new dispersant agent reduces viscosity while maximizing pigment load and tinting strength. Notably, it is compatible with waterborne and alkyd solvent-borne decorative systems, presenting a lower impact on final coating properties for pigment concentrates prepared with OXITIVE 8000. This innovative approach underscores the trend of introducing advanced solutions to meet evolving industry needs, fostering growth within the alkoxylates market.
Major companies in the alkoxylates market are at the forefront of innovation, introducing pioneering products like Bio-Attributed Ethylene Oxide (EO) to cater to evolving customer needs. Bio-Attributed Ethylene Oxide (EO) plays a pivotal role as a raw material for producing ethoxylates used in various applications such as detergents, thickeners, solvents, and plastics. In July 2022, INEOS, a Switzerland-based chemicals company, unveiled Bio-Attributed Ethylene Oxide (EO), presenting a groundbreaking solution. This innovative product provides a 100% substitution of fossil feedstock on a mass balance basis, effectively consuming it internally during the production of intermediates like glycols, ethanolamines, glycol ethers, and ethoxylates. Moreover, Bio-Attributed Ethylene Oxide (EO) offers substantial environmental benefits, delivering a greenhouse gas saving of over 100% when compared to conventionally produced Ethylene Oxide (EO). This innovation reflects a significant step towards sustainability and efficiency within the alkoxylates market.
