The color concentrates market is projected to reach USD 5.80 Billion by 2021, at a CAGR of 6.5% from 2016 to 2021. The color concentrates market has witnessed high growth in the recent years, and this growth is projected to continue in the near future, owing to increase in demand for color concentrates in various end-use industries, such as packaging, consumer goods, building & construction, and automotive, among others. The growing demand for plastics in various industries is also a driver for the growth of the color concentrates market.
On the basis of form, the color concentrates market has been classified into solid and liquid. The solid segment is leading the color concentrates market. The growth of this segment of the market can be attributed to various properties offered by solid color concentrates, which include low price, less let down ratio, inexpensive investments, dry nature, ease of transportation and storage, excellent color control, and reduced waste, among others. The liquid segment of the color concentrates market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Rapid color development, reduced energy consumption in their manufacturing, low material costs, enhanced color dispersion, accuracy in metering, and high color consistency are the properties offered by liquid color concentrates that have led to the growth of the liquid segment of the color concentrates market.
On the basis of end-use industry, the color concentrates market has been classified into packaging, consumer goods, building & construction, automotive, and others. The packaging end-use industry is leading the color concentrates market and is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The growth of the packaging end-use industry of the color concentrates market is due to increased demand for color concentrates for coloring plastics used for lightweight packaging.
Based on region, the color concentrates market has been segmented into Asia-Pacific, North America, Europe, the Middle East & Africa, and South America. The Asia-Pacific color concentrates market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period, owing to the increasing demand for color concentrates in the medical, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food & beverages packaging.
The key restraining factors for the color concentrates market is the high cost involved in the color matching process and increasing demand for pre-colored compounds. This is expected to trigger innovations in the color concentrates market as manufacturers of color concentrates would take initiatives to manufacture color concentrates that are cost-effective. Moreover, companies such as, Clariant (Switzerland), PolyOne Corporation (U.S.), A. Schulman, Inc. (U.S.), Ampacet Corporation (U.S.), Ferro Corporation (U.S.), Breen Color Concentrates (U.S.), Hudson Color Concentrates (U.S.), Penn Color, Inc. (U.S.), Colortech Inc. (U.S.), and Plasticoncentrates, Inc. (U.S.), among others are investing in R&D activities to launch new products and strengthen their positions in the color concentrates market.
