Global Industrial Wax Market: Overview

Industrial wax is an organic compound that consists of long alkyl chains and are malleable, lipophilic solids at normal ambient temperature. These waxes are used in various industrial applications such as formulation of colorants for plastics, matting effects, and imparts wear-resistance to paints, act as slip agents in furniture, etc. Natural industrial waxes consist of unsaturated bonds including functional groups; whereas synthetic industrial waxes consist of homologous series of long chain aliphatic hydrocarbons.

Global Industrial Wax Market: Dynamics

Increasing demand for industrial wax for a range of applications such as candles, packaging materials, tires & rubber, cosmetics & personal care, food, and others, is a major factor expected to drive growth of the global industrial wax market. Increasing uses of synthetic wax, especially paraffin wax in cosmetics, medical products, food, and other applications owing to it being highly moisture resistant, and for its malleability, lubrication, and therapeutic properties. Moreover, rising demand for bio-based waxes in various applications for sustainable and degradable end products is projected to support market growth.

However, increasing raw material prices, coupled with rising crude oil prices are expected to be major factors that can restrain growth of the target market. In addition, declining use of fossil-based wax in the packaging industry is expected to hamper growth of the target market.

Increasing adoption of unconventional waxes among various end-use industries in developing countries and development of new and cost-effective products are among some other factors anticipated to create lucrative opportunities for prominent players, and is expected to positively augment growth of the target market.
