Global Metalworking Fluid Additives Market Growth 2025-2031

The global Metalworking Fluid Additives market size is predicted to grow from US$ 2490 million in 2025 to US$ 2873 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.4% from 2025 to 2031.

Multi-functional additives for metalworking fluids are widely used to formulate water soluble and neat cutting oils for metal working processes. During metal processing these fluids form an effective barrier between metal surfaces and contaminants (such as air, water and other corrosion-producing materials) hence protect metal and finally increase the operating efficiency and reliability of the equipment.

Metalworking fluid additives for industrial lubricants are fairly complex due to their need to carry out multiple functions when in use. These functions include cooling, corrosion protection, providing lubricity and removing metal parts away from the machining activity.

In the metalworking fluid additives market enterprises, the main suppliers are Lubrizol, Afton, FUCHS, Ingevity, Chevron Oronite, Dover Chemical, Evonik Industries, BASF, Vanderbilt Chemicals and Dow, etc. And Lubrizol is the largest suppliers. Lubrizol accounted for about 27% production share. North America is the largest market, with a share about 32%, followed by Europe and China with the share about 28% and 16%.In terms of product, emulsifiers is the largest segment, with a share over 25%. And in terms of application, the largest application is metal removal fluids, followed by metal treating fluids.
