Ketene Derivatives Market

Increasing Adoption of Agrochemicals in Developing Countries to Fuel Growth of the Ketene Derivatives Market

The agrochemical industry has grown in response to rising food demand. While increasing population is resulting in increasing food demand, decreasing cultivable land necessitates increased use of agrochemicals. Agrochemicals are used to protect crops from disease, pests, and weeds. They also contribute to increased soil fertility. According to the FAO, the world population will reach 9 billion by 2050. As the world's population grows, so does the demand for food products to feed it. According to the FAO, cropland per capita has decreased from 0.24 hectares per capita in 2000 to 0.2 hectares per capita in 2019; the shrinking agricultural area will necessitate more produce from the available land. The agrochemical industry's expansion is expected to drive the ketene derivatives market. For instance, in 2020, the global agrochemical market volume was estimated to be 289 million metric tonnes. The global market for agrochemicals is expected to reach 402 million metric tonnes by 2030.

The rapid pace of industrialisation and expanding R&D activities in the agrochemicals industry are key trends driving the prospects of ketene derivates market. In April 2020, Sumitomo Chemical has completed the acquisition of four Nufarm South American subsidiaries. With this acquisition, Sumitomo Chemical will be able to expand its crop protection product development and sales network in South America, including Brazil, the world's largest crop protection market.

Ketenes' versatility in the chemical industry has opened the door to massive revenue potential from their use in pharmaceuticals, beverages, aromatics, and agrochemical applications. The use of amides and anilines in the paints and coatings industry is increasing. Furthermore, the textile industry sees ketenes as a commercially valuable material, boosting the ketene market's growth. One of the driving factors propelling market growth is the growing textile industry. A large presence of natural resources, the expansion of manufacturing industries, the rise of disposable income, and other factors are driving market growth in this region. However, demand for ethylene urea in this region is increasing because China the world's largest producer and exporter of textiles. China's textile industry has become one of the country's economic pillars, thanks to its rapid growth over the last two decades. Among the most important Chinese exports are clothing, clothing accessories, textile yarns, and textile articles.

Ketene derivatives are also widely used in Europe. The ketene derivatives market in the region is expected to grow significantly due to an increase in the number of manufacturers and increased sales of pharmaceutical products in the region. For instance, the European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations (EFPIA), represents a sizeable portion of Europe's drug manufacturers. It currently has 36 national pharmaceutical associations and 39 of Europe's leading pharmaceutical companies as members. Russia, and Turkey are also EFPIA members. In 2020, EFPIA members are expected to generate approximately 310 billion euros in production value.
