The global 1,5-cyclooctadiene market revenue stood at around $210.0 million in 2020, and the market is predicted to progress rapidly during 2020–2030 (forecast period). This is attributed to the surging adoption of various modern agricultural methods, which are driving the use of agrochemicals such as pesticides and fertilizers. In addition to this, the increasing industrialization and urbanization rates and soaring disposable income of people, especially in the Eastern countries, are also fueling the expansion of the market across the world.
As 1,5-cyclooctadiene is a major raw material for polystyrene, which is heavily required in the production of food packaging, the burgeoning need for packaged meals, on account of the mushrooming population of working people in both developing and developed countries, is driving its demand. In addition, the growing preference of people for purchasing food products and groceries online is also pushing up the requirement for polystyrene packaging, which is, in turn, propelling the expansion of the market.
Across the globe, the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region contributed the highest revenue to the 1,5-cyclooctadiene market in 2020, as per the observations of P&S Intelligence, a market research company based in India. This trend is also expected to continue in the upcoming years. This is credited to the surging per capita income and the growing demand for personal care and home-use products in regional countries such as South Korea, China, Thailand, and India.
In recent years, the agriculture sector has witnessed the large-scale usage of the hydrocarbon, primarily because of the surging requirement for agrochemicals such as insecticides and fertilizers. Moreover, the ballooning utilization of agrochemicals for augmenting the crop yield and preventing the chances of crop losses is becoming highly essential for sustainable and organic agriculture, thereby driving the demand for 1,5-cyclooctadiene. Additionally, the rising scale of farming operations, especially in developing countries such as China, Brazil, India, South Africa, South Korea, and Indonesia, is expected to propel the need for 1,5-cyclooctadiene in the coming years.
Hence, the market will grow rapidly in the forthcoming years, primarily because of the burgeoning requirement for food packaging and processed food products, expansion of the personal care industry, and the surging usage of agrochemicals such as pesticides, insecticides, and fertilizers in farming processes all over the world.
