Formaldehyde Demand in 2013 was worth USD 11.7 billion
and is expected to generate the revenue of USD 18.1 billion by the end of 2019,
growing at a CAGR of 7.5% between 2013 and 2019.

Rebound in the construction activity across the world
is expected to drive demand for different kinds of formaldehyde resins in the
next six years. This in turn is expected to propel the demand for formaldehyde
in the years to come. Asia Pacific has been witnessing strong growth across key
end-use industries of formaldehyde including construction, automobile and
textiles. Volatile raw material prices are expected to be a key concern for
formaldehyde manufacturers over the next five years.
Growing health awareness and increasing environmental
regulations are expected to restrict demand for formaldehyde derivatives and
thus limiting the growth of formaldehyde market. In July 2010, theU.S.
government imposed new formaldehyde emission regulation “Formaldehyde Standards
for Composite Wood Products Act” for various products such as plywood, Medium
Density Fiberboard (MDF), and others. Moreover, in Europe, REACH has already
imposed stringent emission standards for formaldehyde 

emissions from wood products.
Urea formaldehyde resins (UF Resins) accounted for over
39% share of total formaldehyde volumes consumed in 2013. However, phenol
formaldehyde (PF) resins are expected to exhibit fastest growth during the next
six years. With over 13% share in total volume consumption, phenol formaldehyde
resin was the second largest application market for the formaldehydes in
2011.Construction, automobile, aerospace and textile are among the key end-user
industries for formaldehyde. Construction industry has remained the most
predominant end-user of formaldehyde with over 65.0% in total volume consumed
in 2013.
Asia Pacific accounted for 57.7% share of total
formaldehyde volume consumed in 2013. Moreover, the demand for formaldehyde in
Asia Pacific is expected to show robust growth in the years to come. In 2013,
Europe was the second leading geographic market for formaldehyde followed by
North America. Some of the leading industry participants include Bayer AG, BASF
SE, Celanese Corporation, Huntsman Corporation, Dynea Oy, Momentive Specialty
Chemical Inc., Georgia Pacific Corporation, and Perstorp Formox AB.
