India Ethylene Oxide Market Analysis: Plant Capacity, Production, Operating Efficiency, Technology, Demand & Supply, End Use, Sales Channel, Region, Competition, Trade, Customer & Price Intelligence Market Analysis, 2015-2030

India Ethylene Oxide market demand stood at 1.36 Million Tonnes in FY2021 and is forecast to reach 2.2 Million Tonnes by FY2030, growing at a healthy CAGR of 5.51% until FY2030. The persistent hike in demand for the product is due to the enormous production of MEG for polyester fabrics and PET. Increasing consumption of DEG in the plasticizers industry is also contributing to the rising demand for the product. The sudden outbreak of Covid-19 in the fourth quarter of FY 20 is anticipated to have a positive impact on the demand for Ethylene Oxide as it is utilized in an abundant amount in many products of specialty chemicals, which is being regarded as the most leveraging sector in times of the pandemic due to its vast influence in the hygiene and healthcare industry.

The total production of Ethylene Oxide in India is shared majorly by three leading manufacturers. The domestic manufacturers of Ethylene Oxide are fulfilling the majority of the demands, leading to a negligible import and export market. On the other hand, the Indian Oil Corporation has proposed to set up a new MEG plant, owing to its increasing consumption in the textile industry for the production of PTA. This is anticipated to further fuel the demand for Ethylene Oxide in the country since it is consumed in an appreciable amount during the production of MEG.

Ethylene Oxide is a versatile compound consisting of a significant number of derivates. The compounds derived from Ethylene Oxide find applications in various end-user industries including agrochemicals, textiles, pharmaceuticals, etc. Production of Ethylene Oxide is carried out in two steps, where Ethylene is first subjected to direct oxidation over silver catalyst yielding aqueous Ethylene Oxide, which is further purified for industrial use. Thus, the production and availability of Ethylene in India is yet another factor, which is directly responsible for the demand and supply of Ethylene Oxide in the country. Moreover, the demand for Ethylene Oxide is further fuelled by its high use in the sterilization of medical equipment and surging demand from agricultural industries as a pesticide.
