Market Overview:
The global wax market is expected to reach USD XX million by 2030, at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period 2018-2030. The growth in the global wax market can be attributed to factors such as increasing demand from end-use industries and rising awareness about the benefits of using waxes. Based on type, the global wax market is segmented into petroleum and mineral wax, synthetic wax, and natural Wax. Petroleum and mineral Wax are further sub-segmented into paraffin Waxes and microcrystalline Waxes. Synthetic Wax is further sub-segmented into polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), styrene butadiene rubber (SBR), ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) Others include beeswax, carnaubaWax etc. NaturalWax includes beeswax, carnaubaWax etc., while others include lanolin oil among others. In terms of volume share in 2017, synthetic waxy accounted for more than 50% of the total synthetic waxy production globally followed by PE & PP segments with nearly 30%. However; in terms of value share natural Waxy held more than 60% share in 2017 due to high prices commanded by natural Waxy over its substitutes especially for applications such as candles & packaging where quality matters over price point considerations .
Product Definition:
A wax is a substance that is used to make things smooth or shiny. Waxes are often used as protectants because they create a barrier between the object and the environment.
Petroleum and Mineral Wax:
Petroleum and mineral waxes are produced from crude oil or natural gas. They are a mixture of paraffin, naphthenic oils, and aromatic hydrocarbons. Mineral waxes generally consist of calcium, sodium, potassium; iron oxide; titanium dioxide; zinc oxide &carnauba wax while petroleum based products contain ethylene glycols & propylene glycol as well as butane.
Synthetic Wax:
Synthetic wax is a man-made product and is also known as paraffin wax. It has been derived from crude oil by refining process. Synthetic waxes are available in various forms such as microcrystalline, semi-crystalline, and fully crystalline. They differ in terms of color & texture & melting point among others depending upon the method of manufacturing.
Application Insights:
The packaging segment accounted for more than 30.0% share of the global market in 2017 and is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. The growing packaging industry, particularly in emerging countries such as India, China and Brazil is anticipated to drive the product demand from 2018 to 2030.
Candles are one of the most popular applications globally due to their various benefits including scent retention ability and longer burn time when compared with other products such as lotions or oils. These candles have a higher melting point which makes them ideal for use in bathrooms where space is limited on account of low temperatures required for proper wax melting process. Furthermore, these candles also offer easy clean up along with an attractive look owing to decorative designs that can be molded into different shapes easily without any difficulty at all making it one of the best buys available globally at present times.
Regional Analysis:
North America was the second-largest regional market in 2017. The region is expected to witness moderate growth over the forecast period owing to high product demand from various application industries, including packaging, healthcare, and others. Rising consumer awareness regarding sustainable products will drive product demand further.
Asia Pacific is projected to be one of the fastest-growing regions during the forecast years on account of rapid industrialization and increasing population in emerging economies such as China and India. In addition, improving economic conditions are likely to boost wax consumption across this region over the coming years. Rapidly expanding end-use industries such as health & personal care coupled with growing domestic markets are anticipated to further propel industry expansion over the next eight years or so.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from end-use industries such as automotive, construction, and furniture
- Rising popularity of candles and other personal care products containing waxes
- Growing use of waxes in food packaging to extend shelf life
- Technological advancements that have led to the development of new applications for waxes
- Expansion of global trade leading to increased demand for Wax
