Global Mould Release Agent Market Growth 2026-2032
Description
The global Mould Release Agent market size is predicted to grow from US$ 84.33 million in 2025 to US$ 107 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.7% from 2026 to 2032.
Global sales of Mould Release Agent was about 12630 tons in 2024 with average price of 6750 USD/ton.
Key raw materials of the product is PTFE and rubber industry is the largest consumer.
The average gross margin of the industry ranges from 25%-30%.
A Mould Release Agent is a processing aid applied to the mould surface or incorporated into a moulding compound to reduce adhesion between the mould and the formed part, enabling clean demoulding, helping protect the mould, and often improving surface finish and cycle stability.
Growth in composites (wind blades, aerospace), rubber goods, automotive lightweight parts, and precision moulding of engineering plastics is pushing manufacturers toward faster demoulding, higher yield, and more stable cycle times—making release agents a critical consumable rather than a minor aid. More complex geometries, thin-wall/high-gloss/textured surfaces, and downstream processes such as painting and bonding also increase the need for low-transfer, low-cleaning, and well-controlled film-forming release systems.
As for market challenge, performance is highly formulation- and process-dependent—varying by resin/rubber chemistry, cure temperature window, mould material, and surface treatment—so release agents often require customization and lengthy validation. Any transfer or residue can trigger coating defects, adhesion failures, or surface blemishes, creating quality and liability risks. In parallel, tighter environmental and chemical compliance expectations (lower VOC/odour, restrictions affecting certain fluorinated and solvent systems) raise the bar for formulation design and supply-chain control, forcing trade-offs among performance, compliance, and cost.
The industry is shifting from frequent “single-use external sprays” toward semi-permanent, multi-release, low-transfer systems that are easier to clean and more consistent. Water-based, solvent-free, and low-VOC solutions are expanding, with increasing emphasis on “paint- and bond-compatible” release technologies. At the process level, automated application (robots/sprayers), in-line consumption control, and digital process monitoring are being adopted to reduce variability; for high-temperature and high-aesthetic applications, advanced silicone/wax/film-forming polymer blends, PFAS alternatives, and integrated solutions that work together with mould coatings or surface texturing are becoming key upgrade paths.
