The global 2-ethylhexanol market has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $5.56 billion in 2023 to $5.97 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.3%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be ascribed to the growth in plasticizers production, the coating and paint industry, plastic manufacturing, surfactants and detergents, as well as chemical intermediates.
The global 2-ethylhexanol market is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.85 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be linked to the rising usage of cleaning products, a shift towards green chemistry, global economic factors, the impact of regulatory changes, and an increased demand for adhesives. Major trends expected in the forecast period encompass the use of quality paints and coatings, industrialization in developing markets, the adoption of adhesives and sealants, increased usage in the automotive sector, and a growing demand for surfactants in detergents.
The projected growth of the automotive industry is set to drive the 2-ethylhexanol market's expansion. The automotive sector encompasses various fields linked to the production, distribution, retail, and maintenance of motor vehicles. Due to its adaptable, robust, and long-lasting qualities, 2-ethylhexanol finds application in manufacturing plasticized PVC (polyvinyl chloride) for use in automobiles. This utilization is anticipated to surge, supported by statistics from May 2022, as reported by CEIC Data, revealing a production of 9.17 million motor vehicle units in the US during December 2021. Consequently, the burgeoning automotive industry plays a pivotal role in propelling the demand for 2-ethylhexanol.
Anticipated growth in the construction industry is expected to act as a catalyst for the expansion of the 2-ethylhexanol market. The construction sector encompasses the strategic processes involved in planning, designing, assembling, and erecting physical structures, facilities, or infrastructure. In this industry, 2-ethylhexanol serves as a plasticizer employed in the production of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), utilized for manufacturing pipes, cables, roofing materials, and flooring. For example, projections from September 2021 by Oxford Economics, a UK-based economic information services company, suggest an estimated 42% increase, equating to $4.5 trillion, in global construction output by 2030, reaching a substantial USD 15.2 trillion. Hence, the burgeoning construction industry significantly contributes to the upsurge in the 2-ethylhexanol market.
Innovative product development stands out as a prominent trend driving the 2-ethylhexanol market's popularity. Leading enterprises within the 2-ethylhexanol domain focus on pioneering applications of this compound to fortify their market standing. For instance, in June 2022, Perstorp, a chemical industry giant based in Sweden, introduced a novel variation of 2-ethylhexanol primarily sourced from 25% renewable raw materials, following a traceable mass balance concept. This groundbreaking product grade marks the world's inaugural 2-ethylhexanol variant predominantly derived from renewable natural resources, further solidifying Perstorp's role as a sustainable solutions provider, catering to the escalating demand for more eco-friendly alternatives across diverse applications.
Prominent entities within the 2-ethylhexanol market prioritize product innovation, notably emphasizing renewable-based variants like 2-Ethylhexanol, aiming to deliver dependable services to their clientele. Renewable-derived 2-ethylhexanol (2-EH) stands as an eco-friendly substitute for fossil fuel-derived 2-EH, demonstrating versatility in various applications, encompassing plasticizers, coatings, and specialized chemicals. For instance, in October 2023, Perstorp, a Swedish chemicals enterprise, unveiled 2-EH Pro 100, engineered to curtail carbon emissions across its value chain, championing sustainable sourcing methods encompassing renewable and recycled raw materials. This groundbreaking product line comprises 100% renewable components, including Evyron T100, Neeture N100, and Valeric Acid Pro 100, secured through traceable mass balance principles.
In October 2022, PETRONAS Chemicals Group, a leading chemicals producer headquartered in Malaysia, completed the acquisition of Perstorp AB for an undisclosed sum. This strategic acquisition was aimed at fortifying PCG's global foothold, particularly bolstering its position within the Asia-Pacific markets. Perstorp AB, hailing from Sweden, specializes in the manufacturing and provision of specialty chemicals.
