MARKET LEADER
New Product Launches and Expansions: Key Growth Strategies
Growth of the flame retardants market is restricted by factors,
such as the toxic nature of halogenated flame retardants and high
loading levels of non-halogenated flame retardants altering the
properties of final products. The opportunities for flame retardant
manufacturers lies in developing more effective synergist
compounds to boost the performance of flame retardants.
Synergist blends help in reducing the amount of halogenated
flame retardants by percent weight, thus reducing the toxicity
and improving the retardant properties.

Emerging technologies and developing more effective synergist compounds
will be the key opportunities for flame retardant players in the future. For
instance, there is an increasing trend of technological advancement, with
manufacturing companies shifting to the use of lightweight and durable
nanoparticles/nano-fillers in their polymer matrix. The Dow Chemical
Company (U.S.) introduced the new polymeric technology. Polymers are
reinforced with nanoparticles either by melt compounding or in-situ
polymerization. The blend exhibits high thermo-mechanical and flame
retardant properties by adding only 2%–5% of these particles. The main
challenge posed by nanotechnology is its higher cost than other flame
retardant technologies. However, their long-term benefits prove to be much
more lucrative for them in such blends. According to a study by the National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the nano-based retardants are
comparatively less toxic and their chemical consumption by weight is 30%
lower than conventional flame retardants with no effect on their final
properties.

16. Flame Retardant Market worth 12.81 Billion USD by 2021
Phosphorous-based flame retardants are projected to register the
highest growth between 2016 and 2021. The rapid growth of
these retardants is triggered by the ban on use of toxic flame
retardants as directed by regulatory bodies such as ROHS and IPC.
The stringent regulatory framework is driving the market for
phosphorous-based flame retardants in North America and
Europe. In addition, the demand from polyurethanes and
engineering plastics also pushed the market as phosphorous
flame retardants emerged as the best commercially feasible
replacement. Asia-Pacific is projected to be the largest and
fastest-growing market owing to increasing production from
small- to medium-scale manufacturers and consumption in
various end-use industries in China.

17. Flame Retardant Market worth 12.81 Billion USD by 2021
The wires & cables market is estimated to show a significant rise in
demand in near future. This growth is projected to be driven by rapid
expansion in wind energy, nuclear energy, telecommunication, and
other end-use industries. The demand will also be driven by the rapid
expansion of the information processing and communications sectors.
These users are estimated to trigger the demand for global flame
retardants in the wires & cables industry. The major users of wires &
cables are the building & construction, automotive, and
telecommunications industries. There is considerable scope of
expansion of the industry in the emerging markets of Asia-Pacific and
Middle East & North Africa (MENA). Stable economic growth in
developing economies, such as China and India, along with fast
urbanization and investment opportunities will boost the demand for
flame retardants in the region in future.
