Global glyoxal sales surpassed USD 1.30 billion in 2015. The global glyoxal industry will continue to grow, especially in emerging economies such as the Middle East and Africa.
Because of its low moisture retention, the chemical is widely used in paper and food packaging. Future demand will be positively affected by the shift to packaged food due to our fast-paced lives. It is used in the textile industry as a cross-linking agent with cellulose to prevent cellulosic swelling. This allows for increased production, which results in soft and wrinkle-free textiles.
The oil & gas industry trends are expected to have a significant impact on the industry's growth dynamics. The oil & gas companies have made huge investments in E&P activities in countries such as Nigeria and South Africa, which is expected to boost demand. Glyoxal's key functions include oil recovery and gas sweetness, which are essential in making oil and gas usable according to end-use requirements.
Glyoxal, which has a dissolved organic carbon content of over 90%, is considered an environment-friendly according to OECD guidelines 301C–E & 303A. It can be used to resist reactive dyes printing and as an agent for leveling in the dyeing of polyamide with acid dyes. This broad application area has opened up new opportunities for market players in terms of innovation.
Asia Pacific is a region that offers tremendous growth potential for the industry. Demand will be driven by factors such as rapid industrialization, urbanization, and other factors. Industrialization has led to a rise in manufacturing activity in the region. Urbanization has also created the need for better public services like sanitation. It is widely used for industrial purposes such as fillers and intermediates, solids separation agents, and odor agents. It is a common ingredient in water treatment products.
Glyoxal can be used in many industries, including paper, textile, paper, agrochemicals and oil & gas. Glyoxylic acid production will see a rise in demand. Glyoxylic Acid, a key derivative of the product, is widely used in many industries, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals.
Oil and gas was the largest application sector, accounting for 30.4% overall volume in 2015. Glyoxal can be used in a variety of applications, including as a cross-linker to oil recovery and as a sulfur scavenger for gas sweetening. Due to the recent drop in crude oil prices due to shale gas discovery in North America, there has been an increase in oil refining activities. Glyoxal applications will be dominated by advanced economies like the U.S. and Canada. A rising demand for oil products in the various end-use sectors in China, India Thailand, Vietnam, South Korea and other Southeast Asian nations has also led to an increase in energy consumption in these emerging economies.
The 16.7% share of overall volume was held by resins and polymers in 2015. They are expected to hold a larger share by 2024. This chemical is used as a cross-linking agent for various polymerization processes. It is becoming more important in cross-linking and masking nucleophiles like sulfites and amides, amino and hydroxy groups.
Glyoxal is used as a building block or crosslinking agent for textiles to create softer, more wrinkle-free clothes. Glyoxal is being used in emerging textile industries across Asia Pacific due to its sustainable and biodegradable nature. Glyoxal has significant potential to be used as an alternative to aldehydes. It is expected to grow in market share due to its unique product characteristics.
Due to increasing land-fill problems and the non-biodegradability common plastic packaging materials, the global paper packaging market has seen a boom in recent years. Plastic packaging is being replaced with more eco-friendly alternatives like paper due to slow degradation, high prices and rising consumption of individual consumer goods.
The Asia Pacific glyoxal industry accounted for more than 65% of global volume share in 2015. The region's growth is expected to be driven by rising demand from key industries like paper, textile, oil & gas, and other end-use sectors. Due to the huge demand from cosmetic manufacturers for moisturizers, sun creams, and lotions, the region will continue its dominance in 2024.
North America is expected to grow at a 7.5% CAGR between 2016 and 2024. The region is expected to see increased activity in oil and gas exploration, as well as strong demand from the packaged foods industry. Glyoxal has wide applications in the end-use industries of agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, and this will benefit North American industry dynamics.
Europe's market growth will be driven by the increasing demand for end-use products such as leather, adhesives and paper packaging. This is in addition to the recovery of economic growth. Another key driver for regional market growth is the increasing use of glyoxal in the production and processing of glycolic acid, which serves as an intermediate for agrochemicals such as antibiotics, vanillin and allantoin.
Glyoxal is expected to grow in demand in the Middle East and Africa due to the region's rapid growth in construction. Due to rising domestic prices, and lower consumer spending, Central & South America will experience a slowdown in growth in the next few years.
