2. Increasing consumer awareness towards personal health and hygiene and their growing
demand for different products are the major factors which are driving the global market
of aerosol. One of the major factors driving the demand for propellants is the steady
growth of the global aerosol market. However, various environmental and health risks
associated with the use of propellants in aerosol products are expected to be a
restraining factor for the market. The aerosol propellants industry is dominated by
hydrocarbons and development of innovative, eco-friendly aerosol propellants are
expected to offer major growth opportunity for industry participants.
Key applications industries for aerosol include paints and coatings, household products,
and medical to auto care, industrial sprays, food, and veterinary among the others.
Spray Polyurethane Foam (SPF) is one of the most predominantly used aerosols. SPF is
mainly used in paints and coatings industry. Strong demand from paints and coatings
industry is expected to trigger growth of SPF and overall aerosol industry in the years
to come.
Hydrocarbons including propane, n-butane, and isobutane accounted for over 80%
share of the total aerosol propellants market volume in 2012 and are expected to grow
at CAGR of 4.5% from 2013 to 2019. Hydrocarbons, due to their lower cost and high
compatibility with all the other old and new propellants, are widely used in aerosol
products. In addition, they are on the "Generally Recognized as Safe" (GRAS) list which
is another factor expected to drive market growth. With 7.7% share in total volume
consumption in 2012, dimethyl ether (DME) was the second largest segment of the
aerosol propellants market. Chloro fluoro carbons (CFCs) which accounted for 0.3%
share in total volume consumption in 2012 are expected to witness decline in their
market share in the years to come. Due to stringent environmental regulations the use
of CFC has been phased out from all applications. However a small volume of CFC is
still in use as an aerosol propellant and is being traded in the black market.

3. With over 37% share in total volume consumption in 2012, Europe was the leading
regional market for aerosol propellants and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.0%
from 2013 to 2019. North America was the second largest market for aerosol
propellants with 30.7% share in total volume consumption in 2012. Asia Pacific is
expected to be the fastest growing region over the next six years, due to rising
consumer income, increasing awareness, changing lifestyles and increasing demand for
aerosol products.
U.S. was the largest aerosol propellants consuming country in 2012, followed
by China and Germany. The global aerosol propellants market was highly fragmented
and consists of a large number of small and medium scale manufacturers. In this highly
dynamic industry, distribution plays a very important role and is the key to success.
Lindal, Aeropres and Diversified CPC International are among the major players in this
market.
