Benzenoid Market Research, 2031

The global benzenoid market was valued at $764.40 million in 2021, and is projected to reach $1,333.10 million by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 5.8% from 2022 to 2031. Benzenoids are also called aromatic hydrocarbons. They are a type of chemical compounds with a minimum of one benzene ring in their structure. Most common aromatic hydrocarbons are benzenoids and some of them are trans-bicalicene, toluene, nitrobenzene, phenol, aniline, and others.   

The uncertainties caused by the global spread of the COVID-19 pandemic had little impact on the benzenoid market. This is primarily due to consistent demand from the personal care, flavor & fragrance, and other sectors. Furthermore, during the pandemic, demand for benzenoid increased rapidly in the healthcare and pharmaceutical sectors. This is because, during the COVID-19 pandemic, the demand for soaps and detergents increased dramatically due to their ability to reduce the risk of coronavirus infection. Because of regulations imposed by the governments of several countries, soap and detergent manufacturers were able to continue operations.

The substantial growth of the benzenoid market can be primarily attributed to increased demand from various applications including aroma chemicals, flavor, and fragrance sectors. Apart from the fragrance industry, benzenoid is extensively utilized in other industries such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, soaps, etc. Moreover, benzenoid use is important in fine fragrances and various consumer goods such as perfumes, hair oils, detergents, confectionaries, and beverages. Numerous products including specialty aroma chemicals, industrial fragrance compounds, customized fragrance compounds, and flavor compounds also frequently use benzenoid.  

The possibility of negative health impacts associated with the use of synthetic chemicals is likely to restrain the benzenoid market growth during the forecast period. Several research investigations have established that increased exposure to benzenoid may lead to cancer. Moreover, benzenoid is flammable and toxic.

The industry players are investing a lot of effort on the research and development of smart and unique strategies to sustain their growth in the market. These strategies include product launches, mergers & acquisitions, collaborations, partnerships, and refurbishing of existing technology. Business expansion along with R&D activities is anticipated to offer ample growth opportunities to benzenoid market players during the forecast period. Benzenoid is extensively used by specialty chemicals companies for manufacturing various fragrances and flavors. These manufacturers are using different strategies to increase their market share in the benzenoid industry.
