The Global Vinyl Ester Market size is expected to reach $1.9 billion by 2031, rising at a market growth of 6.3% CAGR during the forecast period. In the year 2023, the market attained a volume of 4,365.12 hundred tonnes, experiencing a growth of 20.4% (2020-2023).
The growing chemical processing industry in the Asia Pacific is driving the demand for vinyl ester resins to manufacture corrosion-resistant equipment such as storage tanks, pipes, and reactors. Thus, the Asia Pacific market captured 39.5% revenue share in the market 2023. In terms of volume Asia Pacific region would attain a volume of 2,887.66 hundred tonnes in the market 2031.The automotive industry in Asia Pacific is witnessing significant growth, driving the demand for lightweight materials like vinyl ester composites for vehicle components. For instance, according to the International Trade Administration's 2023 data.
Vinyl ester resins provide high mechanical strength, impact resistance, and dimensional stability, making them suitable for demanding applications such as aerospace, automotive, marine, and industrial components.
Additionally, Vinyl ester resins offer excellent corrosion resistance properties, making them ideal for manufacturing equipment such as storage tanks, pipelines, reactors, and scrubbers used in chemical processing plants. Thus, because of the growth in the chemical processing industry, the market is anticipated to increase significantly.
However, Vinyl ester resins may be perceived as a premium material option, leading to cost considerations that favor more economical alternatives. Vinyl ester manufacturers face competitive pricing pressure from alternative materials such as epoxy, polyester, phenolic, and thermoplastic resins. Thus, high cost compared to alternative materials can slow down the growth of the market.
