Global Flame Retardant (Aluminum Trihydrate, Antimony Oxide, Brominated, Chlorinated, Organphosphorous) Market Report 2014-2019
M2 - Fri Sep 05, 3:30AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/4wbjz8/flame_retardant) has announced the addition of the "Flame Retardant Market by Type and End-User Industry - Global Trends & Forecast to 2019" report to their offering. The flame retardant chemicals market is anticipated to increase at a healthy rate annually, to reach $10,340 million, by 2019. The flame retardant chemicals market is witnessing high growth on account of rising demand from existing and new applications in differrent end-user industries that would become significant in the future, especially in the Asia-Pacific region. North America holds the second-largest market share followed by Europe and RoW. In terms of individual countries, the market is dominated by China. Flame retardant chemicals are primarily used in various end-user applications such as building & construction, electronics, automotive & transportation, wires & cables, textiles , and others. The use of flame retardant chemicals in electronics is growing at a high rate, followed by the wires & cables industry. The research and development cost involved in the flame retardant chemicals market in terms of man hours, material, and technology are significant. There is a lot of R&D required to develop new technologies that will help in reducing the cost of production. The growth in the flame retardant chemicals market requires constant innovation and the introduction of new and improved products and technologies that meet the requirements of the customers. This has contributed largely to an enhanced focus on R&D by the players to bring new products as well as to decrease the cost of production by implementation of new technologies. The raw materials used for the production of flame retardant chemicals include several products such as bromine, chlorine, aluminum, and phosphorus. Different types of flame retardant chemicals require their own set of raw materials and ingredients, as organophosphorus requires phosphorus and brominated requires bromine. Any change in the demand and supply of these raw materials can have an impact on the flame retardant chemicals industry. The increase in the price of raw materials force the manufacturers to increase the prices of their flame retardant chemicals products to stem the losses. Flame retardant chemicals are highly toxic and hazardous, so the companies have to face many government regulations for flame retardant chemicals production.
