Flame retardant market size projected to reach USD 11.96
billion by 2025
“The global flame retardants market is expected to reach USD 11.96 billion by 2025.
The growth of key end-use industries such as construction, electrical & electronics,
and transportation is expected to drive the growth over the forecast period”
The global flame retardants market is expected to reach USD 11.96 billion by
2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Favorable regulatory
scenario promoting the use of these materials for fire safety is expected to fuel market
growth over the forecast period. Flame retardants are added to potentially flammable
products as a precautionary measure against fire hazards.
Stringent fire safety regulations and guidelines have forced construction industry to
adopt flame retardant usage. The usage of the high amount of composite material and
plastics has increased the risk of fire hazards. To reduce this risk and to increase the
critical escape time in case of fire hazards, there has been an increase in FR usage

and this trend is expected to grow over the next nine years thus benefitting flame
retardant demand.
Detailed Research Report available at:
http://www.grandviewresearch.com/industry-analysis/flame-retardant-market
Non halogenated flame retardants emerged as the leading product segment and
accounted for 57.7% of total market volume in 2015. The product segment is also
expected to witness the highest growth of 5.7% over the forecast period. Favorable
regulations regarding the use of non halogenated flame retardants are expected to
drive this segment over the forecast period.
Further key findings from the report suggest:

The global flame retardant market demand was 2.49 million tons in 2015 and is
expected to exceed 4.0 million tons by 2025, growing at a CAGR of 4.9% from
2016 to 2025

Aluminum hydroxide had the highest penetration within the non halogenated
segment, in terms of demand in 2015 and is expected to grow at an estimated
CAGR of 5.7% over the forecast period. Regulations restricting the usage of
halogenated flame retardants have been benefitting their non halogenated
counterparts

Epoxy resins were the largest application segment and accounted for 24.1% of
total market volume in 2015. Polyolefins are expected to experience the fastest
growth of 5.5% over the forecast period.

Electrical & electronics was the leading end-use industry consuming flame
retardants with a demand share exceeding 40% in 2015. It is also expected to
witness the highest growth of 5.2% over the forecast period. The growth of

electronics industry particularly in Asia Pacific coupled with favorable regulations
is expected to drive growth.

They are used widely in electronics & electrical industry to achieve the prescribed
flammability standards. Components such as printed wiring boards, electrical
connectors, wires & cables and electrical cabinets & enclosures use flame
retardants.

Asia Pacific was the leading consumer and accounted for 47.9% of total market
volume in 2015. The presence of manufacturing hubs, rising demand for
construction and consumer electronics in the region are the primarily attributed
reasons for the highest penetration. The region is also expected to witness the
highest growth over the forecast period.
