26 May, 2023

The global speciality chemicals market size is expected to grow from $712.64 billion in 2022 to $744.58 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.5%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The global speciality chemicals market size is expected to grow to $873.22 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 4.1%.

Global Speciality Chemicals Market Key Driver

Increasing demand for high-performance coatings is projected to propel the speciality chemicals industry forward. High-performance coatings are the final two types of protective coatings. They are specialised and particularly created to improve the structural integrity, soundness, and health implications of buildings, building sites, and structures. High-performance coatings combine specialist chemicals to provide further protection against environmental factors such as moisture, high temperature, and airflow, which have a large influence on coatings and can have an impact on both interior and exterior spaces. For instance, in July 2022, The Sherwin-Williams Company, a US-based paint, and coating manufacturing company, announced its financial results for the second quarter, in which the combined net sales of paints and coats were $5.87 billion, a 9.2% increase over the previous quarter. The use of high-performance coatings by professional architects in coil and packaging operations was a major contributor to the increase in consolidated net sales. Therefore, the increasing demand for high-performance coatings is expected to propel the growth of the specialty chemicals market in the coming years.
