The global ethylene dichloride market has been on a steady trajectory, poised to hit a value of US$ 19.2 billion by the close of 2022 with a projected moderate CAGR of 3.7% between 2022 and 2028, reaching a substantial US$ 24.0 billion by the end of the forecast period. This growth surge primarily stems from the burgeoning utilization of ethylene dichloride in the fabrication of various chemicals, materials, industrial, and consumer goods. The escalating applications across diverse sectors are significantly driving the market’s expansion, underlining its pivotal role in multiple industries’ production and innovation.

Increasing demand for Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) resins for different usages like the production of plastic and flooring materials is a primary growth driver for the ethylene dichloride market. This is owing to the application of ethylene dichloride in the production of PVC. Furthermore, growing adoption of ethylene dichloride (EDC) as a lead scavenger in petrol will bode well for market demand over the forecast period. Rapid expansion of the oil and gas industry all over the world is expected to push manufacturers to concentrate more on the proliferation of their refinery capacities, which will foster market growth for ethylene dichloride.

Additionally, elevated demand for production of chlorinated solvents and pesticides will likely boost market growth. Ethylene dichloride market is further positively influenced by certain demographic and macro-economic factors like development of textile and chemical industries, evolution of the mining sector and others. Ethylene dichloride is also considered to be environmentally friendly as it is non-toxic for aquatic organisms and doesn’t accumulate in the aquatic food chain. With rising environmental consciousness, this is expected to propel market expansion for ethylene dichloride.

“An upsurge in the production of PVC along with the rising demand for petrol will likely augment sales in the global market over the forecast period,” says an FMI analyst.

Regional Analysis

According to the latest reports by FMI, North America accounts for the major share of the global ethylene dichloride market, accounting for almost 36% of the overall market share in 2022. The regional market growth is propelled by the presence of multiple renowned ethylene dichloride manufacturers in the U.S. Several ethylene dichloride manufacturers are employing capacity expansion strategy which is expected to supplement the regional market growth.

The Europe ethylene dichloride market is anticipated to account for 21.2% of the total market share by the end of 2022. This is owing to the rapid development of the pharmaceutical and packaging industries in the U.K. Rising trend of online shopping coupled with the evolving food and beverage sector are likely to fuel the packaging sector in the U.K. This will increase the demand for plastic packaging which in turn will supplement ethylene dichloride market growth in the U.K.

Apart from these developed countries, ethylene dichloride market in India will witness an acceleration in demand. Owing to the swift rise in the demand for crude oil and favourable government initiatives, the regional ethylene dichloride market will register significant growth. Thus, the South Asia ethylene dichloride market is expected to account for nearly 20.7% of the total market share.

Segmentation Analysis

According to the latest study by FMI, by application, the vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) segment is predicted to dominate the global ethylene dichloride market. The rising conversion of VCM to polymeric PVC since the former is considered to be hazardous for human health is responsible for the growth witnessed by this segment.

Based on the production process, oxy chlorination is evaluated as the leading segment in the global ethylene dichloride market. This production process is gaining massive traction across the world due to the urgent need to lower harmful emissions from the production of polyethylene dichloride.

Unlike the traditional direct chlorination production process, oxy chlorination uses hydrogen chloride in combination with oxygen. The relatively low cost of hydrogen chloride, as compared to chlorine, is predicted to make oxy chlorination the most preferred production process.
