Specialty Cellulose - A Global Market Overview

Market Report I 2024-07-01 I 208 Pages I Industry Experts

Report Synopsis

Demand growth for Specialty Cellulose is expected to accelerate at a moderate pace, driven by the increasing popularity of bio-based materials across various end-use markets. This growth will be led by cellulose ethers and microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), supported by positive long-term trends in the pharmaceutical, food, and construction industries, particularly in emerging countries such as China and India. Conversely, demand for cellulose acetate is projected to remain flat during the forecast period. This is due to a decline in consumption linked to decreasing acetate tow production for the cigarette industry, although this will be somewhat offset by moderate growth in cellulose acetate used in plastics and LCD screens.

The specialty cellulose industry is highly concentrated and dominated by a small number of large suppliers, owing to the high technological and expertise demands, the extended qualification periods required by customers, and the limited size of the market niches. RYAM, Bracell, GP Cellulose, and Borregaard account for about 65% of the global specialty cellulose sales. Global Specialty Cellulose demand is projected to reach close to 2 million metric tons by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 2.5% between 2024 and 2030.
