Demand for Metal Cleaning Chemicals for Manufacturing and Transportation Industries

The augmented market for green metal cleaners is likely to propel the metal cleaning chemicals market owing to increase in global manufacturing industries. The transportation heavy equipment and machinery requires maintenance so that the performance of the machinery is not hampered. Thus, it requires the wide usage of metal cleaning chemicals for the smooth operational efficiency. Therefore, it is estimated to support market demand by 1/4th of current levels in coming years.

Escalating Use of Aqueous Based Cleaning Chemicals

The use of trichloroethylene and other solvent chemicals poses numerous environmental and health risks and are not a preferred choice. Thus, companies are shifting towards safe and sustainable operating practices. The introduction of aqueous based technology and the rising demand for green chemical cleaning alternatives is an environment-friendly and cost-effective means for cleaning components and parts.

This helps in the reduction of industrial waste and improves workplace safety as well. Thus, these factors are likely to support market growth by 2.2X during the forecast years of 2022-2032.

Bio-Based Alternatives to Present Opportunity

Animal or plant materials are the main ingredients of bio-based cleaning chemicals. As they are made from a renewable resources, they do not contain environmentally damaging substances like toxins, synthetics etc. Companies in the market are offering innovative bio-based alternatives as a suitable product for removing fuels, carbon, fluids, contaminants like sensitive magnesium, aluminium, etc.

Therefore, the use of bio-based alternatives to avoid hazardous conditions is likely to create lucrative opportunities for the manufacturers in the metal cleaning chemicals market in coming years. It is expected to enhance their sales by 1.3X over the assessment period.

Environment and Government Regulations Restraining Market Growth

Due to the VOCs content in the solvent based chemicals and usage of water in aqueous cleaners, most of the metal cleaning chemicals are subject to various government authorities and environmental regulations. As the VOCs contain carbon atoms having high vapor pressure, they evaporate rapidly in the air. And after evaporating they form ground-level ozone and are the chief ingredients of smog as well leading to an adverse impact on environment and human health. It leads to reduced growth and survivability of tree seedlings, reduction in crops, harsh weather conditions etc. Therefore, all these factors are likely to restrain the market growth by 0.5X over the assessment period.
