The non-phthalate plasticizer market is projected to reach USD 4.53 Billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 8.7% from 2017 to 2022. The market is driven by the growing building & construction industry and the increased use of non-phthalate plasticizer in the flooring & wall coverings and wire & cable applications, globally. Growing end-use industries in emerging countries, such as China and India, and the increasing preference for non-phthalate plasticizer in different applications are expected to further fuel the growth of the market in the coming years.

Non-phthalate plasticizers are used in different applications, such as flooring & wall coverings, wire & cable, film & sheet, consumer goods, and coated fabric. The flooring & wall coverings segment was the largest application segment of the non-phthalate plasticizers market in 2016. Non-phthalate plasticizers are used in the flooring application, as they can withstand heavy foot traffic such as in retail stores and repeated cleaning such as healthcare facilities. Non-phthalate plasticizers-based wall coverings are durable and are easy to maintain.

Based on type, the adipates plasticizers segment was the largest segment of the market in 2016. The growth of the segment is expected to be driven by the high demand for adipates plasticizers from the consumer goods industry. The trimellitates plasticizers segment is projected to be the fastest-growing segment of the non-phthalate plasticizer market during the forecast period. Trimellitates plasticizers are typically used in applications requiring low volatility and high temperature resistance for extended periods of time.

Asia-Pacific, North America, Europe, South America, and Middle East & Africa are the key regions considered in the non-phthalate plasticizer market. Asia-Pacific was the largest market for non-phthalate plasticizers in 2016. The region is also projected to be the fastest-growing market, in terms of both value and volume, during the forecast period. Significant growth of the construction industry, especially in the developing countries in the region, is expected to drive the growth of the non-phthalate market in Asia-Pacific.

Some of the major challenges for the growth of the non-phthalate plasticizers market are rising prices of raw materials, such as adipic acid and use of alternative materials in some applications. The use of high-cost non-phthalate plasticizers increases the cost of the end products and is, therefore, a major challenge in the market.

Eastman Chemical Company (U.S.), BASF SE (Germany), Exxon Mobil Corporation (U.S.), UPC Technology Corporation (Taiwan), Evonik Industries AG (Germany), LG Chem Ltd. (South Korea), DIC Corporation (Japan), Polynt SpA (Italy), Perstorp group (Sweden), Kao Corporation (Japan), PolyOne Corporation (U.S.), and Nan Ya Plastics Corporation (Taiwan) are the leading companies operating in this market. Companies are expected to improve their presence in regions, such as Asia-Pacific and South America, to cater to an increasing customer base in these regions.
