The growth trajectory of the high purity solvent market is projected to rise, driven by the escalating demand for paints and coatings. Paints and coatings, which are either a liquid, liquefiable, or solid mastic substances, congeal after being thinly applied to a surface. High purity solvents have a pivotal role in dissolving a range of ingredients in paint and coating mixtures. For instance, the American Coatings Association, a non-profit entity based in the US, reported in October 2023 that there had been an estimated growth in value of 25% in the coatings industry from 2021 to 2023. Consequently, the soaring demand for paints and coatings fuels the expansion of the high purity solvent market.

Key players in the high purity solvents industry are striving for innovation in bio-derived products to strengthen their market position. Bio-based solvents, which can serve as substitutes for those based on crude oil, are equally effective and often pose less safety risks. For example, in February 2022, Clariant, a premium chemicals firm based in Switzerland, introduced its novel range of Vita 100% bio-based surfactants and polyethylene glycols (PEGs), aimed at directly tackling climate change by eliminating fossil carbon from the value chain. Vita's product range, made from renewable raw materials, boasts a Renewable Carbon Index of not less than 98%. Engineered for natural formulations with high renewable carbon indices, these new Vita products aid manufacturers in augmenting the bio-based carbon content of consumer products like detergents, shampoos for hair and body, paint, industrial lubricants, and crop formulations.
