Market Overview:
The global paper chemicals market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for packaging materials and paper mills across the globe. In terms of type, bleaching chemicals accounted for the largest share of the global paper chemicals market in 2017. This can be attributed to their growing demand in pulp and paper mills for improving brightness and whiteness of papers.
Product Definition:
A paper chemical is a substance used in the production of paper. There are many different types of paper chemicals, each with its own unique properties and purposes. Some are used to make the pulp more absorbent, others to help improve the finish or color of the paper. Paper chemicals can also be used to increase the strength or durability of the finished product.
Bleaching Chemicals:
Bleaching chemicals is a group of peroxide-based compounds and other oxidizing agents used for the purpose of bleaching or whitening pulp. The most common form of bleaching chemicals includes hydrogen peroxide, sodium hypochlorite, and calcium hypochlorite. These are generally available in liquid or solid forms at room temperature which can be directly applied to the pulp for the desired effect.
Pulping Agents:
Pulping agents are chemicals that are added to the pulp processing chemicals during the paper manufacturing process. Pulping agents improve sheet formation and reduce sheet shrinkage during paper making. The most common pulping agent used in the market is sodium sulfite which improves color, brightness, and quality of formed sheets compared to non-sulfited papers.
The global pulp processing chemicals market was valued at USD 7 billion in 2015.
Application Insights:
Packaging materials was the largest application segment in 2017 and is projected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. The global packaging market is expected to reach USD JGDRX8 of around 49,300 million in 2030 on account of increasing consumption of food-grade paperboard and paper for packaging products.
Paper mill was the second largest application segment accounting for a share of 24.3% in terms of revenue in 2017 owing to growing demand from end-use industries such as printing & writing instruments, tissue & facial tissues, corrugated boxes among others. Paper mills are majorly located within Asia Pacific region due to high production volumes coupled with low cost labor rates which attracts numerous manufacturers operating within this region.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific was the largest regional market in 2016 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region accounted for a share of more than 30% in terms of revenue and is likely to witness significant growth on account of rising demand from end-use industries such as packaging, printing & writing, construction, adhesives & sealants.
The growing population coupled with rapid urbanization has led to an increase in household goods production which will further drive product demand across Asia Pacific. In addition, increasing foreign investments coupled with favorable government policies are anticipated to boost pulp and paper industry growth which will propel consumption levels over the coming years.
China dominated global bleaching chemicals market accounting for a share of more than 60% owing to high consumption levels by pulp.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from packaging and printing industries: The global paper chemicals market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period, owing to the increasing demand from the packaging and printing industries.
- Rising demand for bio-based paper chemicals: The market for bio-based paper chemicals is projected to grow at a high rate in the next few years, owing to their environmental benefits over traditional petrochemical-based products.
- Growing popularity of digital media: With the growing popularity of digital media, there has been an increase in the use of coated papers and other specialty papers, which is driving growth in the global paper chemicals market.
- Rapid urbanization and industrialization: The rapid urbanization and industrialization across emerging economies are leading to an increase in demand for various types of papers, thereby propelling growth in the global paper chemicals market. 5
