Market Overview:
The global specialty pulp 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 specialty pulp from various applications such as tissue paper, artificial fiber, plastic, paint, film and gunpowder. In terms of type, the softwood pulp segment is expected to dominate the global specialty pulp market during the forecast period owing to its properties such as high brightness and low lignin content. However, hardwood pulp is projected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period due its properties such as high strength and stiffness.
Product Definition:
A type of pulp that is made from a specific kind of wood, such as spruce or pine. Specialty pulp is used to make high-quality paper products, such as magazines and textbooks.
Softwood Pulp:
Softwood pulp is the cellulose-rich part of hardwood or soft wood. Softwood includes coniferous and deciduous trees, such as pines, spruce, hemlock and cedar. Softwood pulp has a higher content of hemicellulose than hard wood pulps; it contains around 20% to 40% hemicellulose by weight compared to 12% to 25% for hard woods.
Hardwood Pulp:
Hardwood pulp is the cellulose-based material that is obtained from hardwood trees. The most common types of hardwood used are maple, beech, oak and elm. Cellulose content in these plants is extracted after a process called pulping.
Application Insights:
Tissue paper was the largest application segment in the global specialty pulp market in 2017, accounting for over 50% of the overall revenue. Tissue papers are widely used in daily life as sanitary pads and diapers. Growing population across countries such as India, China and Indonesia is expected to drive demand for tissue papers over the forecast period.
The artificial fiber application segment is projected to witness significant growth at a CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2030 owing to increasing demand for these products from various end-use industries including textiles and construction where they are used as reinforcement fibers or yarns.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific was the largest market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region accounts for nearly half of global production owing to large area availability of plantation lands, easy availability of labor, and presence of a huge population. China is one among the top five pulp producers globally along with Indonesia, India, Bangladesh and Myanmar.
The Asia Pacific specialty pulp industry has been witnessing healthy growth due to rising demand from end-use industries such as tissue paper & board; plastic; paint & coating; artificial fibers (wool); film/tissue packaging etc. Rapidly growing economies coupled with increasing foreign investments are projected to drive regional growth over the coming years.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from packaging and printing industries: The specialty pulp market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2016 to 2021, owing to the increasing demand for specialty pulp from the packaging and printing industries.
- Rising demand for dissolving wood pulp: Dissolving wood pulp is used in various applications such as textiles, pharmaceuticals, food processing, and paper manufacturing. It is also used as a raw material in the production of rayon fiber, cellophane film, and other products. The rising demand for dissolving wood pulp is expected to drive the growth of the specialty pulp market during the forecast period.
- Growing use of biodegradable plastics: Biodegradable plastics are made up of natural materials that can be decomposed by microorganisms into water vapor and carbon dioxide without leaving any toxic residue behind.. They are increasingly being used in place of conventional plastics due to their environmental benefits.. This is expected to boost the growth prospects of the global specialty pulp market duringthe forecast period .
