Chemicals Industry Overview
The chemicals market is expected to reach over $6851.59 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 7.8%!
Chemical companies are increasingly adopting sustainable and eco-friendly processes to eliminate the negative impact of chemical manufacturing on the environment. Evolution in technology and chemical sciences enabled chemical companies to utilize alternative fuels to produce chemical products. They are using naturally available carbon dioxide to produce fuels, industrial products, and other substances.
Chemicals Market Coverage
The chemicals market consists of the sales of chemicals by entities (organizations, sole traders and partnerships) that produce chemicals based on the transformation of organic and inorganic raw materials by a chemical process and the formulation of products (but excluding beneficiating of mining output, refining of crude petroleum, manufacturing of aluminium oxide, primary metal manufacturing, beverage distilling, tobacco manufacturing).The chemicals industry establishments produce a variety of chemical products by processing raw materials such as air, water, natural gas, oil, metals and minerals. The chemicals market is segmented into general chemical product; printing inks; toiletries; soap and cleaning compounds; adhesives; paints and coatings; pesticide and other agricultural chemicals; chemical fertilizers; synthetic rubber and fibers; plastic material and resins; ethyl alcohol and other basic organic chemical; other basic inorganic chemical; synthetic dye and pigment; industrial gas and petrochemicals.
