Segment-
Petroleum Segment to Grow Considerably Backed by Rising Usage of Paraffin
In terms of product type, the market is segregated into animal & plant, mineral, synthetic, and petroleum. Out of these, the petroleum segment held 63.5% wax market share in 2019 and would grow considerably throughout the forecast period. Petroleum products mainly consist of micro-crystalline type, petrolatum, and paraffin. Paraffin is the most commonly used product worldwide. It is highly versatile and possesses a low reactive nature. Therefore, it is best suited for several industrial applications. In addition to this, it is cost-effective, unlike the other types. The animal & plant segment would grow at a fast pace owing to the rising demand for non- carcinogenic, as well as bio-based non-toxic products.
Regional Analysis-
Asia Pacific to Lead Stoked by Abundant Availability of Raw Materials
Based on geography, the market is divided into Europe, the Middle East and Africa, North America, Asia Pacific, and Latin America.
