Clean Start: Improvements in the Economy and Ipi Are Expected to Renew Industry Growth
During the five-year period to 2019, downstream demand for the Chlorine Manufacturing industry has grown in line with broader economic growth. In addition, exports have sharply increased due to the depreciating dollar and rising foreign demand. Profit margins are expected to decline due to expected rises in the price of electricity, the major manufacturing input for the industry. Over the five years to 2024, industry revenue is expected to continue to grow, albeit at a slower annualized rate. In addition, domestic chemical manufacturing and construction activity are expected to increase and further support industry growth moving forward. However, oversupply due to high growth during the previous period is expected to temper growth somewhat.
This industry manufactures chlorine. The chemical compound is used to produce pharmaceuticals, plastics, cosmetics, electronics and clothing.
This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
