Diisononyl Phthalate Consumption Analysis (2017-2021) in Comparison to Market Growth Forecasts (2022-2032)

Diisononyl phthalate is popularly used as a phthalate-based plasticizer, which is further used in plastics and PVC to add the characteristics of flexibility and durability. The economic nature of this plasticizer has increased its demand over the past few years. Non-phthalate plasticizers could see a rise in popularity as strict laws against the use of toxic chemicals are implemented across the world.

Expanding at a CAGR of 3.6% from 2017 to 2021, the global DINP market ended at a valuation of US$ 2.8 billion at the end of 2021.

Increasing use of plastics, rising demand for phthalate-based plasticizers, growing scope of application in several industry verticals, increasing demand for PVC products, and rising use in construction applications are significant factors that are expected to favor the sales of diisononyl phthalate in the years to come.

However, volatility in raw material pricing is expected to be a major factor restraining DINP market growth through 2032. Other factors such as increasing demand for eco-friendly plastic alternatives and stringent regulations governing the use of plastic are also expected to have a hampering effect on diisononyl phthalate market potential throughout the forecast period.

From 2022 to 2032, the global market for diisononyl phthalate is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 4.6%.

Which Demand Driver Spearheads Diisononyl Phthalate Market Growth?

“Rising Use of DINP-plasticized PVC in Construction Applications”

Rapid urbanization and industrialization across the world have fueled the demand for infrastructure development, and have subsequently driven the demand for construction products.

DINP-plasticized PVC demand is expected to be majorly driven by the construction sector as the use of flexible and durable PVC components increases in construction activities. Sales of PVC plasticizers are also expected to be driven by rising demand for PVC components.

Emerging economies such as India, China, and Brazil are anticipated to be key markets driving the consumption of DINP-plasticized PVC products. Rising construction activities are also anticipated to supplement the sales of superplasticizers.

What Could Cause Sales of Diisononyl Phthalate to Plummet?

“Attenborough Effect Negatively Impacting Diisononyl Phthalate Demand”

General awareness about environmental conservation and the negative impact of the use of plastics has substantially increased over the past few years. This has led to a substantial decrease in the usage of plastic products across the world as the youth and celebrities engage in campaigns to reduce plastic waste.

Reduction in the use of plastic will eventually lead to decreased demand for diisononyl phthalate, and hence, the Attenborough effect is expected to adversely impact market growth across the forecast period.

Other factors such as volatility in raw material pricing and stringent norms to ban plastic are also expected to reduce the sales of diisononyl phthalate over the coming years.

Why Should Diisononyl Phthalate Manufacturers Target the Asia Pacific Market?

“Rising Construction Activities in Asia Pacific to Drive Demand for DINP”

The Asia Pacific regional market is anticipated to rise at a CAGR of 5.1% throughout the forecast period owing to rapid urbanization and industrialization in the region, which is fueling demand for infrastructure development.

Governments in emerging economies such as China and India are funding new projects, which are increasing construction activity and thereby driving demand for DIMP in the APAC region.

The low cost of production of DINP is also predicted to drive the growth of the diisononyl phthalate market in the APAC region. This region is expected to account for a revenue total of US$ 1.2 billion by the end of 2032 and hold a market share of 26.9% in the global landscape.

The markets for diisononyl phthalate in North America and Europe are expected to expand at CAGRs of 4.7% and 4.6%, respectively, across the forecast period.
