Abstract
The report covers forecast and analysis for the dust suppressant market on a global and regional level. The study provides historical data from 2015 to 2018 along with a forecast from 2019 to 2025 based on revenue (USD Billion) and volume (Kilotons). The study includes drivers and restraints for the dust suppressant market along with the impact they have on the demand over the forecast period. Additionally, the report includes the study of opportunities and various trends in the dust suppressant market on a global level.
As per the report, the global demand for dust suppressant market was valued at approximately USD 3 billion in 2018 and is expected to generate revenue of around USD 8 billion by end of 2025, growing at a CAGR of around 12% between 2019 and 2025.
On unpaved roads and lots, dust-suppressing agents are used to reducing fugitive dust and control the cost of erosion and maintenance. The way dust is reduced varies according to the product type; some form crusts or protective surfaces on the ground, others are binding agents, which shrink particles and cause moisture to shrink. The potential environmental effects of dust suppressants include a deterioration in surface and groundwater, soil contamination, soil toxicity, and water biota, human and human toxicity, air pollution caused by volatile dust suppressants, soil accumulation, soil hydrological changes, and effects on the indigenous population of flora and fauna.
In the forecast period, the global market for dust suppressants is expected to grow substantially. Higher awareness in manufacturing, mining, and investment growth in civil infrastructural dust suppressants are some of the critical aspects that have a positive influence on the global market for dust suppressants. Dust can cause a wide range of challenges, including harmful health effects. Other challenges in diverse industries are, apart from the health sector, cross-contamination and dust recovery. As dust suppressors are vital for industries like cement, building and mining, the growth of these end-use industries is expected to drive the dust suppressing market growth. Dust-repelling is nevertheless labor-oriented, and the shortage of skilled work and low public awareness are expected to curb the growth of the global dust-repelling market. Despite these challenges, the current trend towards utilizing new and better technology will increase worldwide dust suppressor demand during the forecast period.
Due to the cost-effective solution over dry suppressants, wet suppressants have naturally become the leading natural segment. The segment growth is driven by its excellent ability to reduce dust emissions at buildings, mining, and production sites. The segment dominated in 2018 by the type of polymer emulsion. The growth of the sector is driven by increased demand for paints and coatings, personal care products, pulp, and paper. Polymer emulsion is gaining enormous traction from the end-user industry due to its low VOC content, better recyclability, and shelf life. Construction sector held a substantial market share in 2018. This segment market is driven by increased expenditure on commercial, residential, and industrial infrastructure. Rapid urbanization and industrialization have helped to build industry growth.
Due to the presence of the manufacturing sector in the Asia Pacific, the region has a significant part in the world dust suppressant market. Due to the higher demand for mining and metallurgical industries, the Asian Pacific dust suppressor market is expected to increase consumptiveness. Investments in the Asia Pacific construction sector will also boost the dust reduction market over the forecast period. Europe is expected to hold more than half of the global dust suppressant market share. Due to the significant growth of the construction sector, MEA is projected to show high growth in the dust suppressant market.
Some of the leading players in dust suppressants market is Borregaard LignoTech, Archer Daniels Midland Company, Huntsman International LLC, Chemtex Speciality Limited, GelTech Solutions, Hexion Inc., Benetech Inc., Cargill Incorporated, and DowDuPont Inc., among others.
