Industry Outlook

Propylene Glycol Global Outlook

Propylene Glycol (PG) is one of the Chemicals classified as diols. They are used mainly to produce polymers like unsaturated polyester resins. It is also known as 1,2-dihydroxy propane, 1,2-propanediol, methyl glycol, Mono Propylene Glycol (MPG), and trimethyl glycol. Glycol Solvents are used as a deicing solvent or an anti-freezing solvent. Dipropylene Glycol (DPG) and TriPropylene Glycol (TPG) are byproducts of PG. These functional fluids are used in food, drug & cosmetics, liquid detergent, and paints & coating. 

  • The global market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 2.4 percent during 2019–2024, with the demand likely to reach 2.7 MMT by the end of 2024
  • Demand for UPR (which goes into construction, transportation, marine industries as a reinforced plastic and fiberglass composites) is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5–6% from 2016 to 2021

Industry Best Practices

  • Large-volume buyers usually prefer buying via contract across all three major regions.
  • Among small-volume buyers, CPG players opt for contracts, due to the need for high-quality pharma grade MPG, while non-CPG small-volume buyers can buy in the spot market.
  • Regional sourcing is preferred in Europe, owing to REACH regulation on PG, while both global and regional sourcing are followed in North America and Europe.

Global Market Size

  • The global PG market is expected to exceed the $4.5 billion mark by 2022.
  • Bio-based PG is expected to grow faster than conventional PO-based PG, as a result of its high usage in pharma industries in the North American and European markets to ensure lower levels of toxicity to the environment.
  • Key applications driving the PG growth are heat transfer fluids, fragrance, cosmetics, and personal care sectors.

Global Capacity–Demand Analysis

  • Capacity–demand gap was expected to narrow down by 2020, if no further new plants or capacity expansions take place, resulting in supply issues.
  • An increase in buying interest for bio-based PG, globally, will help in mitigating volatility in PG prices, which is greatly influenced by upstream energy prices.

Propylene Glycol Market Outlook  

  • Currently, the US is the largest market for PG, followed by China and Germany.
  • Asia represents almost 43 percent of the global PG consumption, with China being the major consumer.
  • Globally, about 6 percent of PG is produced through the biofuel route, made of glycerine (soybean or canola seeds in the US) or sorbitol (corn, based in China).
  • Bio-based PG production would result in capacity expansions across China, France, and the US.

Propylene Glycol Market Overview

  • Europe and the US are considered to be relatively mature in the bio-based propylene glycol market.
  • Key regions that will drive the future market of propylene glycol would be China, followed by the US and Germany.
  • The Asian region with high downstream demand from the construction, automotive, and home care industries is expected to be the major driver of PG up to 2022.
  • European downstream markets are more mature as compared to the Asian region and will not witness high-demand growth rates.
  • The strict environmental regulations in Europe are a constraint for the propylene glycol market. 
  • Global Bio-Chem (China) had commercialized this process, using corn as a feedstock to produce corn-based biochemical products. However; they had temporarily stopped their production in 2016 & 2017 due to lesser profitability amidst lower crude oil prices.
