A boom in demand for environmental dyes and widening of the global consumer spending are the major driving factors
The global Organic Dyes market is forecast to reach US$ 10.15 billion by 2027, according to a new report by Reports and Data. The market is avouching a gush in demand for environment-friendly dyes. One of the major driving factors for an increase in demand for organic dyes are rising in demand for High-Performance Pigments (HPP). Also, a surge in the market for printing inks is the factor that will result in the hike in demand for organic dyes in the forecast period.
Although being obtained from the environment, organic dyes still have some environmental concerns as their major restraining factor. As when water-bodies receive a high concentration of these organic dyes, it hinders the oxygenation capacity of the water-bodies, thus affecting the biological activity of aquatic life.
Transformation in emerging economies, as well as growth in the manufacturing bases, are the opportunities, and the harmful health effect due to releasing of organic dyes in water bodies is the challenge that the market is currently facing.
The Covid-19 impact
As the Covid-19 crisis grows, manufacturers are quickly adopting safe strategy and techniques which are supposed to increase the demand for fertilisers, preferably as the market starts stabilising. The primary effect is the constraints in logistics, as it is seen that the results are both bullish and bearish. The impact of Covid-19 is variable, depending upon the participants of the market and the locations. Getting skilled labour is also one of the restraints, which is a result of this pandemic. While looking at the supply side, most of the Indian domestic producers of organic dyes have reopened their plants post lockdown. In logistics, many countries are loosening the import-export policies post lockdown to resume to recover the loss due to this pandemic.
Further key findings from the report suggest:
- Dyeing from natural sources is an ancient culture that continues today, but just the process has changed a little over time. As Western culture is becoming more health-conscious, the demand for natural dyes is witnessing a resurgence.
- The agricultural industry also uses organic dyes like colouring fertilizers, pond dyes, crop protection, and seed treatment, among others.
- Paint and coatings are mainly for improving the material’s physical appearance. These solutions are designed with keeping in mind the sustainability, cost-effectiveness, and performance criteria. The selection of colorant depends upon the type of surfaces. High-performance dyes and pigments are essential components for the protection of corrosion and heat to provide perfectly matched colour shade as per choice.
- The Asia Pacific holds the first position in the production of organic dyes. China is the first, and India is the second-largest producer of organic dyes across the world.
- An acidic dye is generally applied in textiles at low pH. Some of the other uses include food colourings and staining organelles. China is the highest producer of acid dyes in the whole world.
- Key participants include Altana Ag, Cathy Pigments Inc., DIC Crop, Clariant International Limited, Sun Chemical Group, Cabot Crop, Lanxess AG, Rockwood Holdings, Huntsman International LLC, and BASE SE, among others.
