The United States cosmetic imports accounted for 24.7% of the total import market share at $291 million. Industrial wax is widely used in cosmetics and personal care industries for hair care, skincare, makeup, and other allied products. Thus, growing cosmetic industry is expected to drive the demand for industrial waxes.
Industrial Wax Market Challenges
Shrinking supply of paraffin wax
Changes in the production process of base oil have been observed in the past few years. Base oil manufacturers are changing their focus from waxes to a more profitable choice for base oil. Via isomerization, waxes are converted in this process into base oils. As a consequence, it was seen that the stock of fossil-based paraffin waxes is decreasing. As the supply of fossil waxes continues to shrink, the supply-demand gap is expected to result and is expected to be the limiting factor for the industrial wax market. New wax processing technologies such as GTL and CTL are able to produce good quality wax and are expected to fill the demand-supply gap during the forecast period.
Market Landscape
Technology launches, acquisitions and R&D activities are key strategies adopted by players in the Industrial Wax Market. In 2019, the market of Industrial Wax Market has been consolidated by the top five players accounting for xx% of the share. Major players in the Industrial Wax market includes Sinopec Corp, China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC), HollyFrontier Corp., BP PLC, Nippon Seiro Co., Ltd., Baker Hughes, Exxon Mobil Corp, Sasol Ltd., among others
Key Takeaways
Asia Pacific dominates the market, owing to the rise in construction activities across the globe, driving the demand for adhesives, which is one of the leading applications for waxes. In addition, technological developments have stimulated the demand for adhesives in the region. This in turn, is projected to have a significant impact on market growth over the forecast period.
High wax consumption is expected to increase market growth over the forecast period due to its advantages, including UV resistance, anti-caking properties, excellent insulation, and resistance to microorganisms, moisture and odor. The development of the polymer manufacturing, pharmaceutical, food and personal care industries is also boosting demand for wax globally.
In addition, wax-coated paper provides professional and cost-effective packaging options to protect items from moisture, moisture, and greasing. Some of the sectors, such as cosmetics, are now entering into alliances with other industry leaders. Such strategic partnerships, such as bio-based wax, synthetic wax, and petroleum wax, are likely to generate a huge market for wax.
However, operations in various industries such as cosmetics, adhesives and so on is being significantly affected due to the COVID-19 epidemic, as most of countries have issued “stay at home guidance” i.e., lockdown. And it is expected that the outbreak of COVID-19 will be seen in the whole year of 2020, and a few months in 2021. This is limiting Industrial Wax market growth.
