Europe Furfural Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Raw Material (Rice Husk, Corn Cobs, Sugarcane Bagasse, and Others), By End User, By Application, By Country and Growth Forecast, 2023 - 2030


The Europe Furfural Market would witness market growth of 4.9% CAGR during the forecast period (2023-2030). In the year 2020, the Europe market's volume surged to 242.51 hundred tonnes, showcasing a growth of 4.2% (2019-2022).

Furfural-based products play a vital role in crop protection and enhancement in agriculture. Furfural-based pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides are used to control pests, weeds, and fungal diseases in crops. Additionally, furfural-based soil conditioners and bio-stimulants improve soil health, nutrient uptake, and plant growth, contributing to higher yields and crop quality. Similarly, furfural-based resins and coatings are used in various applications in the paints and coatings industry. It resins offer excellent adhesion, chemical resistance, and weatherability, making them suitable for protective coatings in automotive, marine, and industrial applications. Moreover, furfural-based coatings are also used for corrosion protection, decorative finishes, and wood preservation.

Likewise, it holds promise as a renewable energy feedstock for producing biofuels and bio-based chemicals. Furfural-derived biofuels, such as furan-based bioethanol and biodiesel, offer sustainable alternatives to conventional fossil fuels. Moreover, it can also be converted into furfuryl alcohol, which serves as a precursor for renewable polymers and plastics. Furfural-based chemicals are utilized in the textile industry for fiber modification, dyeing, and finishing processes. Furfuryl alcohol, for example, is used as a crosslinking agent in producing durable press fabrics and flame-retardant textiles. Furfural-based resins are also employed in manufacturing synthetic fibers and composite materials.

Within the F&B processing sector, significant value generation was observed in specific segments. The manufacture of bakery and starch-based products emerged as the most prominent, contributing to 17.7% of the total value added by EU F&B processors. This was closely followed by the manufacture of beverages, which contributed 16.3%.
