Glycol Market, By Type (Ethylene Glycol, Monoethylene Glycol, Diethylene Glycol, Triethylne Glycol, Polyethylene Glycol, Propylene Glycol, and Other Types), By End-User Industry (Automotive and Transportation, Packaging, Food and Beverage, Cosmetics, Pharmaceuticals, Textile, and Other End-user Industries), By Geography (North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa)

Glycol is an organic compound that finds a variety of applications across industries like cosmetics, food, pharmaceuticals, and automotive antifreeze. It acts as an intermediate in the production of various other chemicals and polymers. There are different types of glycols like ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, butylene glycol, etc. depending on the raw materials used. Among these, ethylene glycol occupies a major share globally due to its versatile properties and wide applicability in various end-use industries. It has solvent and humectant properties that has led to its utilization in fields such as polyester fibers and resins, automotive antifreeze formulations, and aircraft de-icing. Glycol also finds usage as a heat transfer fluid in many industrial processes requiring heating or cooling.

Market Dynamics:

Polyester fibers and resins are the primary applications of glycol, especially ethylene glycol which has a global demand of over 15 million tons annually. On the other hand, factors like fluctuation in feedstock petroleum prices impacts the production costs. Stringent regulations regarding emissions from glycol based automotive antifreeze products act as a restraint. However, technological innovations to produce bio-based or recycled glycols present new opportunities. The construction industry utilizing composite materials made from resins and the growing fleet of aircrafts are bolstering demands.
