ROCKVILLE, Md., March 22, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fact.MR’s global rubber processing chemicals market report forecasts a moderate outlook, anticipating a CAGR of approximately 3% to reach nearly US$ 6 Bn by the end of the 2021-2031 forecast period. Uptake is most likely expected across the automotive tire manufacturing sector, attributed to swelling vehicle ownership, both, commercial and private.
Despite retaining a positive trajectory, growth was sluggish during the historical period. According to Fact.MR’s report, sales of rubber processing chemicals expanded at just above 2% CAGR. This is largely ascribed to a general slowdown in the global automotive industry. In addition, COVID-19-induced depression across major industrial verticals further slowed down market growth, leading the market to close in at approximately US$ 5 Bn in 2020.
Fortunately, prospects are expected to rebound, as several countries resume industrial production activities amid flattening infection curves. Prominent manufacturers are expected to find renewed growth opportunities in the synthetic rubbers domain. Owing to structural superiority in comparison with natural rubber, synthetic rubbers are fast making inroads across major industries, prompting chemical companies to focus on synthetic rubber processing chemicals.

What Does Analysis of Rubber Processing Chemical Demand for the U.S. Conclude?
The market for rubber processing chemicals in the U.S topped US$ 1 Bn in 2020, amid extensive uptake across the automotive industry. As vehicle ownership increases, consumers are spending on tire maintenance so as to improve automobile performance through reduced abrasion resistance and superior road grip.
Moreover, manufacturers are incorporating synthetic rubber, owing to their ability to adhere to metals, making it an excellent option for rubber gaskets, seals, tires and other products. Hence, processing chemicals for synthetic rubber is experiencing considerable incline.
How is China Likely to Generate Growth Opportunities for Rubber Processing Chemical Suppliers?
Sales of rubber processing chemicals in China are slated to expand at over 5% CAGR to be valued at above US$ 1 Bn by 2031. Growth is being spurred by extensive development of the Chinese chemical industry, as well as a swelling automotive aftermarket in the wake of surging automobile sales.
The International Council of Chemical Associations (ICCA) estimates that in 2019, the chemical industry in China emerged as one of its primary manufacturing industries, while a study conducted by BASF concludes that chemical production is likely to rise by 6.3% through 2021 and beyond.
Consequently, government policies are being modeled to accommodate entry of prominent rubber processing chemical manufacturers, which will lead to significant expansion of the market in the future.
