The global Methylene Dichloride market stood at approximately 1682 thousand tonnes in 2024 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 4.69% during the forecast period until 2035.
Methylene Dichloride is a colourless, volatile liquid with a somewhat pleasant smell. It is extensively utilized in a variety of end-use industries, such as the Paint Stripping, Adhesives, Aerosols & Coatings and Pharmaceuticals. Methylene chloride finds application in several industrial processes such as paint peeling, pharmaceutical production, paint remover, and metal cleaning and degreasing. Methylene dichloride paint removers can remove many kinds of coatings from a range of surfaces. Paint strippers with methylene chloride concentrations ranging from 10% to 90%. Methylene chloride is also used to decaffeinate tea and coffee in the food & beverage sector. Due to its volatility, it is used in the pharmaceutical industry, as an aerosol spray propellant, and as a blowing agent for polyurethane foams.
Paint stripper is the most common use of methylene dichloride. Therefore, it is projected that the market for methylene chloride will grow during the forecast period in response to a rise in the demand for paints and coatings. The construction and automobile industries' increasing demand for solvents, the ease of access to methylene dichloride is likely to foster market growth. Also, the growing use of methylene chloride as an extraction solvent in the food and beverage manufacturing sector is another contributing factor. Many insecticides and pesticides are manufactured using methylene dichloride as a solvent. As the world's population grows, so does the need for agrochemicals to boost agricultural output. In turn, this is anticipated to fuel the agrochemical industry's need for methylene dichloride during the next years. Owing to these reasons, the global Methylene Dichloride market is likely to reach approximately 2771 thousand tonnes in 2035.
In terms of consumption, the Asia Pacific region leads the global Methylene Dichloride market. Throughout the projection period, the Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to hold the biggest market share for methylene chloride. The need for paints and coatings is rising in the area. A sizeable portion of paint and coating use comes from the building and automobile industries. Asia-Pacific is home to the world's largest construction market, which is driven by China and India. The rise of construction activities in these countries is primarily driven by causes such as rising living standards, rising per capita income, industrialization, and infrastructure development and renovation.
Based on the end-user industry, the global Methylene Dichloride market is divided into Paint Stripping, Adhesives, Aerosols & Coatings, Pharmaceuticals and Others. Among these sectors Paint Stripper and Adhesives are the leading segments and held about 50% of the global Methylene Dichloride market in 2024 and is anticipated to prevail the similar trend in the upcoming years.
