Ethylene Glycols Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Derivative (MEG, DEG, TEG), By Application (Polyester Fibers, PET, Antifreeze & Coolants), By End Use (Automotive, Textile), By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2024 - 2030
Ethylene Glycols Market Growth & Trends
The global ethylene glycols market size is expected to reach USD 23.56 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 5.3% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Growing demand for polyethylene terephthalate (PET) for packaging applications, primarily in Asia Pacific and Latin America is expected to remain a key driving factor for the market. In addition, growth from the global textiles industry is also expected to support the ethylene glycol market development over the forecast period. Volatile prices and tight supply of raw materials, on account of frequent fluctuations in crude oil prices, are expected to inhibit the market growth over the next six years.
Monoethylene glycol (MEG) emerged as the leading product segment and accounted for 32.67% of total market volume in 2023. MEG in addition to being the largest product segment is also expected to be the fastest-growing ethylene glycol at an estimated CAGR of 4.5% from 2024 to 2030. MEG is mainly used for manufacturing PET and growth of the global beverages market is expected to drive the demand for MEG over the forecast period. Global market for di-ethylene glycol (DEG) is expected to reach USD 6.23 billion by 2030.
