Market Overview:
The global flatting agents market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for flatting agents from various end-use industries, such as industrial, architectural, leather, wood, printing inks and others. In terms of material type, the silicone segment is projected to lead the global flatting agents market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to its properties such as heat resistance and non-toxicity which make it suitable for use in a wide range of applications.
Product Definition:
Flatting agents are substances used to reduce the surface tension of a liquid. This is important because it allows for more even spreading of the liquid and prevents formation of droplets.
By Material:
By material is used for the production of polymers and copolymers. It includes resins, synthetic rubber, natural rubbers & plastics and fibers.
By Technology:
Flatting agents are chemicals that lower the surface tension of a liquid, allowing particles to collect on the liquid's surface. The most common types of flatting agents used in water treatment applications include chelating agents and metal-complexing cationic surfactants.
Application Insights:
The industrial segment dominated the global flatting agents market in 2017, accounting for over 60.0% share of the overall revenue. The growth of this application segment can be attributed to increasing demand for steel from various industries including construction, automotive and transportation, energy generation and distribution among others.
Architectural is expected to be the fastest-growing application segment during the forecast period owing to rising demand from developing countries such as India and China where architectural designs are evolving at a fast pace along with technological advancements in construction materials. Moreover, wood applications require minimal maintenance as compared to other materials used in building applications such as concrete or steel which further boosts product consumption globally on a large scale every year since past few decades without any signs of letup yet.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global flatting agents market in 2017. The region is expected to witness a considerable growth rate of 6.8% over the forecast period, owing to rapid industrialization and increasing foreign investments in various sectors such as automotive, electronics, etc. In addition, rising population coupled with rapid urbanization has led to an increase in construction activities across emerging economies such as India and China which is further anticipated to drive product demand over the next eight years.
Europe accounted for a significant share of global revenue due to high demand from architectural applications sector mainly due archival storage facilities and printing ink industry that requires precision tools for producing labels & tickets at low cost along with woodworking machinery used for manufacturing furniture products are driving regional growth.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for flatting agents in the paints and coatings industry as a result of their ability to improve surface finish, hide defects, and reduce the number of coats required for achieving desired finish.
- Rising demand from end-use industries such as automotive, construction, and furniture owing to growth in these sectors.
- Growing awareness about the benefits of using flatting agents among consumers due to increasing marketing efforts by manufacturers.
- Technological advancements that have led to development of new and improved products with better performance characteristics are expected to fuel market growth over the forecast period.
