Global Flame Retardants Market Trends

Electronics and electrical industry

Everyday electronics have become a necessity in today’s world. Digitization and penetration of the internet have spurred the use of consumer electronics.  The plastic casings of electrical devices like TVs, smartphones, laptops, tablets, computers, and gaming systems are manufactured with flame retardants to reduce risks of ignition and spreading of fire thereby giving ample time for people to move out and emergency personnel to respond quickly. It is highly effective in preventing sparks, overheating, smoke, melting, or short circuits. These factors will drive the growth of the flame retardants market in the forthcoming years. 

Transport and automotive sector

Electric vehicles and efficient transportation infrastructure are the need of the hour for combating climate change. Flame retardants are a viable solution for making lightweight, durable, and flexible cars that reduce fuel consumption. The high-energy electric components like batteries, cables, and connectors provide real fire threats. Retardants provide low flammability and less smoke production for safer evacuation. Such factors will boost the growth of the flame retardants market during the forecast period. 

Construction industry

Fire-resistant buildings are important for saving the lives of occupants and providing efficient fire protection. Flame retardants are used in electrical wiring, cables, and in the insulation of walls, and ceilings. Structural elements like concrete, plaster, wood, and steel parts are coated with paints that contain flame retardants. All such measures are put into place to construct safe residential or office buildings. This is going to drive the growth of the flame retardants market in the subsequent years.

Manufacturing consumer goods

Recurring durable goods such as furniture, upholstery, mattresses, carpets, curtains, and fabrics are applied or added with flame retardants to decrease their chances of igniting and catching fire. These widespread applications will thereby propel the growth of the flame retardants market in the coming years. 

Flame Retardants Market Share Analysis

Based on type, the ATH segment will provide lucrative opportunities for growth in the flame retardants market share due to its smoke suppressing and retardant features making it suitable for use in various end-user industries.
