Get in-depth analysis of the COVID-19 impact on the Industrial Wax Market
Benchmarking the rapid strategy shifts of the Top 100 companies in the Industrial Wax Market
Request For Special Pricing[171 Pages Report] In 2018, the industrial wax market was valued at USD 9.8 billion and is projected to reach USD 14.3 billion by 2026, registering a CAGR of 4.8% during 2018-2026. The drivers of the market are increasing applications of industrial waxes and growing demand from candle application. The restraining factors in the market are shrinking supply of paraffin wax globally and increasing prices of industrial waxes.
The fossil-based waxes segment is estimated to be the largest type of the industrial wax market.
The fossil-based waxes segment is the largest type of the industrial wax market. These waxes are largely used in candle making, packaging, and coatings of commercial products. In addition, these waxes are used in the cosmetics industry as they are considered extensively safe and are derived from various processes of crude oil refining. Petroleum wax has a high-gloss characteristic, which makes it a suitable ingredient for polishes and is commonly used in floors, furniture, cars, and footwear.
The market in the tire & rubber application to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
The market in the tire & rubber application is projected to witness the highest growth rate during the forecast period. Industrial waxes are added to the compounds of rubbers and tires to protect them from ozone and UV lights. In addition, these waxes are applied to tires and rubbers to protect them from cracking. Moreover, the growing tire and rubber industries are expected to drive the demand for industrial waxes during the forecast period.
Asia Pacific accounts for the largest share of the industrial wax market
Asia Pacific was estimated to account for the largest share of the industrial wax market in 2017. China, India, and Japan are among the leading markets for candle making, packaging, coatings & polishes, and tires & rubber. The growth in the application segments has increased the demand for industrial wax in the region.
Market Dynamics
Drivers
Rising demand from applications such as candle, tire & rubber, and coating & polishes.
Candle application contributed the largest share in the industrial wax market and is expected to remain the largest segment during the forecast period. The growing demand for colored and scented candles is driving the market for industrial wax in candle application. Growing cosmetic industry is expected to drive the demand for industrial waxes. Wax paper is a proficient and cost-effective wrapping that protects products from humidity, water, and greasing. Excellent shine, anti-blocking, water-proofing, anti-scratch properties, and slip resistance are the favored properties of industrial waxes in the coating industry. The increase in demand for industrial waxes from the coating & polishes application is expected to boost the industrial wax market growth during the forecast period.
Restraints
Shrinking supply of paraffin wax
Changes in base oil production process had been observed in last few years. Base oil manufacturers are shifting their focus from waxes to comparatively profitable base oil option. Waxes are converted into base oils through isomerization in this process. As a result, the supply of fossil based paraffin waxes was seen to be shrinking. The continuous shrinking of supply of fossil waxes is expected to result in the supply-demand gap and is expected to be the restraining factor for the industrial wax market. The new technologies of wax production such as GTL and CTL are capable of producing good quality wax and expected to fill the demand-supply gap during the forecast period.
Opportunities
Growing demand for unconventional waxes
Biobased waxes are mostly favored by food packaging, cosmetics, and personal care applications. The specific properties of bio-based waxes are attributed to the growing demand of these types of waxes in food, cosmetics, and personal care applications. The growing cosmetic industry is also providing ample opportunities for the growth of the industrial wax market.
Challenges
To meet the growing demand for paraffin wax
Global industrial wax demand in 2017, accounted for 5,329.8 kilotons, and is growing at a CAGR of 3.8% during 2018-2026. Around 81% of demand is for fossil based waxes. Most of which is for paraffin waxes. The recent shutdowns of group I base oil plants, and capacity reductions have impacted on the total supply of paraffin waxes. Balancing the supply and demand is one of the challenges in the industrial wax market.
