There are three types of azo pigments, namely orange, yellow and red. These are further classified according to their color index for their respective end-use application and have the following technical names: ß-naphthol pigments, naphthol as pigments, azo pigment lakes, benzimidazolone pigments, diazo condensation pigments, metal complex pigments, isoindoline, and isoindoline pigments. These pigments find applications in high-grade coatings and plastics.
Between 2017 and 2022, the market for Azo Pigments is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 3.9%. In addition, current forecasts indicate that between 2023 and 2033, the growth prognosis for azo pigments would remain at 4.2%. A little reduction in growth rate during the historical period can be attributed to the global economic crisis and the decline in chemical sales that took place as the raw material shortage peaked during the Covid-19 outbreak.
However, with increased demand from end-use industries, the market is anticipated to rise significantly over the course of the projected period. Additionally, the increase in raw material availability is assuring that Azo Pigments will continue to be produced consistently and unabated over the predicted period.
How demand from printing ink manufacturers is driving the market for azo pigments?
The continued economic expansion and the anticipated increase in global population are both expected to increase the need for printing inks. Demand for inks used in printing and packaging is predicted to increase, especially in developing countries like China and India, which are anticipated to have particularly rapid expansion in the printing sector throughout the Asia-Pacific region. The region's improved economic conditions, rising urbanization rate, and rising educational levels will all contribute to the industry's anticipated growth in publishing and printing. These elements will also increase the need for printed publications like books, newspapers, and magazines. The market is seeing an increase in demand for print versions of educational, professional, corporate, and technical materials.
Why do the paints & varnishes industries have a high demand for azo pigments?
The market for colorants, which includes dyes and pigments, has recently seen remarkable growth as a result of the substantial middle-class population in emerging economies. Increasing consumer spending and a growing demand to employ a variety of colors are two other variables that are anticipated to have an impact on the market for colorants. This has led to a growth in the demand for azo pigments, which are required for the manufacturing of plastics, coatings, printing inks, synthetic fibers, glass, ceramics, construction materials, medications, cosmetics, etc. This in turn has been driving the global market for azo pigments. The market for paints and coatings is expected to grow quickly throughout the projected period due to increased construction activities.
How will the dependency on petroleum feedstock hamper the growth of the azo pigments market?
The essential starting materials for the manufacture of azo pigments include base (amine), HCL (30%), acetic acid, sodium nitrite, sulphamic acid, caustic, and xylene, all of which are derived from petroleum. Due to the erratic nature of feedstock prices, azole pigment prices will change.
These fundamental components, which are widely employed by the colorants and coatings sector, are frequently produced by refinery processes and petrochemical feedstock. The feedstock used in the colorants and coatings industry-both petrochemical and non-petrochemical-is utilized in considerable proportions.
On the basis of product type, which segment is dominating the global azo pigment market by consumption?
“Yellow Product Type accounts for the largest share of azo pigments owing to the variety of color indexes available in the yellow pigment”
Cost, combined with particular physical characteristics, is a major consideration when choosing a pigment color index. Yellow azo pigment provides a wide variety of color indexes as compared to red and orange pigments. During the projected period, demand from the paints & coatings, printing inks, and other end use industries is anticipated to propel segment expansion in the global market.
What are the growth opportunities for azo pigments in paints & varnishes applications?
“Rising urbanization and construction sector will create significant growth opportunities azo pigments in paints & varnishes applications”
The rising urbanization can increase in per capita income in emerging countries has boosted the building & construction industries. This boost has created a huge demand for paints & varnishes from the construction sector. Due to various advantages of azo pigments & government regulations, many players are opting for azo pigments for paints & varnishes applications. In the forecast period, the demand from the sector is anticipated to grow at a higher CAGR.
