Summary

Global demand to rise 3.9% yearly through 2013
World demand for dyes and organic pigments is forecast to increase 3.9 percent per year to $16.2 billion in 2013, in line with real (inflation-adjusted) gains in manufacturing activity. In volume terms, demand will grow 3.5 percent annually to 2.3 million metric tons. While the textile industry will remain the largest consumer of dyes and organic pigments, faster growth is expected in other markets such as printing inks, paint and coatings, and  plastics. Strong gains will occur in the Asia/Pacific region and, to a lesser extent, other  developing regions such as the Africa/Mideast region and Eastern Europe, while market maturity will limit advances in North America and Western Europe.

Overall market value will benefit from important consumer preferences toward environmentally friendly products, which will support consumption of highperformance dyes and organic pigments. However, gains will be limited by the mature state of the organic colorant industry in developed areas such as the US, Western Europe and Japan, where dyes and organic pigments are essentially commodity items used in well-established markets. Also restraining gains will be intense competition and continued pricing pressures, especially from lowcost producers based in Asia (China and India in particular).

Organic pigments to lead demand gains
Growth in dye consumption will trail increases in organic pigment demand, although dyes will continue to represent the lion’s share of the overall market both in volume and value terms. Among the different dye product types, disperse dyes are expected to see the fastest gains, due
to their usage in the fast-growing polyester fiber industry. For their part, organic pigments find increasing use in inks and coatings due to their ability to provide intense and bright colors. However, drawbacks to the use of organic pigments include their only moderate ability to provide opacity. The best prospects are for high-performance products such as quinacridones, which will experience favorable gains as endusers require more exacting properties from their  coloring agents. Azos will benefit from their ability to provide a wide range of yellow shades, without the heavy metals such as those in chromate inorganic pigments. While specialized pigment grades will offer good opportunities due to their enhanced environmental acceptability and superior performance traits (e.g., heat stability, chemical resistance and lightfastness), commodity grades are expected to continue to dominate the organic market. These lower-priced commodity organic pigments will remain widely employed in large-volume markets with less exacting performance standards for colorants, such as printing inks.

Asia/Pacific region to grow the fastest
Following established trends seen over the past decade, the Asia/Pacific region will experience the strongest growth and increase its share of the global dye and organic pigment market -- representing one-half of world demand in 2013, up from 37 percent in 1998. China is by far the largest single consumer in the world and the fastest growing national market. India will also post rapid increases, but demand levels will remain well below that of China. China alone is expected to account for about two-fifths of global value gains in dye and organic pigment demand between 2008 and 2013.
