Follow on Google News | Important protection for men and goods: Ceresana analyzes the global growth market biocidesBiocides are used to prevent damages caused by microbes or other organisms. They protect industrial products and consumer goods as well as animals and human beings.
By: Ceresana Considerable differences in price and consumption Although biocides are usually added in comparatively low quantities to the final product, market research institute Ceresana forecasts global revenues of almost US$7.3 billion in 2019. The prices of biocides vary considerably depending on the type of product, thus constituting a crucial influence on revenues generated in the various fields of application. The sectors paints, disinfectants, and smaller niche applications in particular utilize biocides that are substantially more expensive than products applied in, i.e., water treatment. In quantitative terms, as far as consumption of biocides is concerned, the dominating area on the market for biocides is industrial and public water treatment. Large regional and application- About a quarter of demand coming from Asia With a roughly 42% share of global consumption, North America is the major sales market for biocides, followed by Western Europe and Asia-Pacific. Shares in demand of the individual world regions will continue to shift over the next eight years. In the past, developing countries in Asia-Pacific have already been able to profit from the dynamic development of additional important sales markets for biocides. "Due to the rapid growth in industrial output, demand for biocides in the sectors water treatment, paints, varnishes, paper, and plastics increases. At the same time, improved standards of living and stricter hygiene regulations have caused utilization in consumer-related sectors such as disinfectants to rise", explains Oliver Kutsch, CEO of Ceresana. The analysts of Ceresana expect countries in Asia-Pacific, with the exception of Japan, to increase their shares of the global market for biocides. Until 2019, this region is likely to see its share of worldwide biocide consumption to expand to over 24%. This development will occur mainly at the expense of Western Europe and North America, where the sales markets are already saturated. Growth impulses generated in those regions will be due less to an increase in consumption volume within individual sectors than to alternations between the different product types. In this regard, legal requirements as well as health concerns and trends in environmental consciousness are of vital importance. The Study in Brief: Chapter 1 concisely summarizes the most important facts regarding biocides and provides information concerning application areas, types of biocides, effects on the environment, and the legal situation. Chapter 2 provides a presentation and analysis of the biocides market – including forecasts up to 2019: for each region, demand and revenues will be explained In chapter 3, demand and revenues generated with biocides in the sectors disinfectants, water treatment, wood preservation, paper industry, paints and adhesives, plastics, and other application areas are analyzed in detail. Chapter 4: in-depth analysis of the application areas of biocides: The data on demand development is split by Western Europe, Eastern Europe, North America, South America, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, and Africa. Chapter 5 analyzes demand and revenues for individual types of biocides based on halogens, metals, sulfur and nitrogen compounds, phenols, and others.
