2020 Insights on the Global Flame Retardant Chemicals Industry - by Product Type, Application and End-Use Industry


Dublin, March 13, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Flame Retardant Chemicals - A Global Market Overview" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Epoxy resins and polyolefins form the two largest applications for flame retardant chemicals, and they will retain their leadership position over the analysis period with epoxy resins recording the fastest growth.

While the global building & construction industry accounts for the largest share of flame retardants demand, the electrical & electronics sector, particularly in Asia, will emerge as the fastest growing.

Aluminum Hydroxide is the largest consumed product type with an estimated share of about 42% in 2019, which is anticipated to reach a projected US$5.4 billion by 2026.

However, the global market for Phosphorus Compounds is likely to log the fastest 2019-2026 CAGR of 5.6% and reach a projected US$3.1 billion by 2026. The overall global Flame Retardant Chemicals market for 2020 is expected to reach 2.8 million metric tons.
