Global Furfuryl Alcohol Market Size Study, by Application (Resins, Solvent, Corrosion Inhibitors, Others), by End-Use (Foundry, Agriculture, Paints & Coatings, Pharmaceuticals, Food & Beverages, Others), and Regional Forecasts 2024-2032
Description
The global furfuryl alcohol market, which reached a valuation of USD 610.69 million in 2024, is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8% during the forecast period from 2024 to 2034. Furfuryl alcohol, derived from renewable resources like corn cobs and sugarcane bagasse, serves as a critical chemical in various industrial applications. Its significant use in the production of furan resins, which are indispensable in the foundry industry for manufacturing molds and cores, has made it a key player in sectors such as automotive, aerospace, and construction.
The rising demand for metal castings in these industries is driving the furfuryl alcohol market, alongside a growing shift towards bio-based chemicals. This shift, propelled by environmental concerns and regulatory pressures, is pushing industries to adopt more sustainable and eco-friendly products, with furfuryl alcohol being a prime candidate due to its renewable origins. Additionally, the expansion of the chemical industry, particularly in emerging economies, is further augmenting the market growth as furfuryl alcohol is increasingly used as an intermediate in producing various chemicals, including coatings, adhesives, and pharmaceuticals. However, the market is not without its challenges. The fluctuating prices of raw materials such as corn cobs and bagasse, essential for furfuryl alcohol production, present a significant hurdle. Price volatility due to seasonal availability, agricultural yield variations, and competition for biomass can affect the stability and profitability of furfuryl alcohol manufacturing. This necessitates innovations in supply chain management and the exploration of alternative feedstock sources to ensure consistent production.
Regionally, Asia Pacific has dominated the furfuryl alcohol market, capturing over 68% of the revenue share in 2024. The region’s dominance is driven by the extensive use of furfuryl alcohol as a flavoring ingredient in the food and beverage industry, as well as its significant role in the foundry sector. China, in particular, is a leading manufacturer, responsible for over 80% of global production. The country’s strategic focus on producing both furfural and furfuryl alcohol gives it a cost advantage, further solidifying its position in the global market. Whereas, the market in North America is anticipated to grow at the fastest rate over the forecast period 2024-2034
