Market Overview:
The global optical brightener 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 optical brighteners from various applications, such as paper, fabrics, detergents & soaps, synthetics, plastics and others. In terms of type, the styrene segment is expected to lead the global optical brightener market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to its properties such as high brightness and whiteness enhancement.
Product Definition:
Optical Brightener is a dye that absorbs light in the blue region of the spectrum and re-emits light in the ultraviolet and visible region. It improves the appearance of a material by increasing its brightness.
Styrene:
Styrene is a colorless and flammable organic compound. It has a strong odor similar to that of plastic. It is soluble in alcohol, ether, and water but insoluble in tar. Styrene can be produced by the polymerization of ethylstyrene or by the addition of hydrogen gas into a solution of styrene monomer in acrylonitrile (AN) or acrylic acid (AA).
Coumarin:
Coumarin is a type of flavoring agent derived from the plant Scopolia carniolica. It has been used in various food products and beverages as it imparts an aroma similar to vanilla. Coumarin can be extracted from different parts of the plant; however, its concentration is highest in the roots.
Application Insights:
The paper application segment led the global market in 2017 and is projected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. Optical brighteners are used in paper manufacturing as they improve the brightness, color, and contrast of printed papers. The rising demand for high-quality papers with enhanced visual effects is expected to be a key factor driving product demand over the next eight years.
Fabrics application segment accounted for more than 15% share of total volume in 2017 owing to its extensive usage in textile printing as well as dyeing processes. Optical brighteners help enhance color fastness, washability, softness (durability), and brightness (luminescence) of fabrics which are likely to have a positive impact on market growth during this period.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. The region is expected to witness moderate growth over the forecast period owing to a shift in preference towards bio-based products. In addition, growing awareness regarding health and hygiene is anticipated to propel product demand.
Asia Pacific has emerged as one of the major consumers of optical brighteners due to rising disposable income coupled with increasing population and rapid urbanization across countries such as China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia & Thailand are driving industry growth in this region. Moreover, expansion of textile & clothing application segment on account of rising demand for fabric care products from developing economies including China and India is projected to have a positive impact on industry growth over the next eight years (2018 - 2030).
The Middle East & Africa market was valued at USD X million in 2017 owing both volume.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for optical brighteners from the textile industry as a result of the growing popularity of fluorescent and bright colors in clothing.
- The increasing use of optical brighteners in food and beverage packaging to make products look more appealing to consumers.
- Growing demand for optical brighteners from the cosmetics industry as a result of the increasing trend towards using brighter and more colorful makeup products.
- Rising awareness among consumers about the benefits of using optical brighteners, which is helping to drive demand for these products across different industries.
- Technological advancements that are resulting in the development of new and improved types of optical brighteners, which is helping to boost growth prospects for this market
