Wax Market To Cross $12.89 Billion By 2025

The global Wax Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.7% between 2019 and 2025. Coating and printing ink verticals are driving the market. Wax stands out due to its resistance to scratch, rubs, marks, and repellency against water. It acts as an additive to a spectrum of inks inclusive of gravure, letterpress, flexographic, and lithographic.

Paraffin wax comes from crude oil; which is, in turn, derived from petroleum. Suzler Ltd. has adopted a novel process of crystallization for refining paraffin from the residue of synthetic fuel production. The latest trend in this regard is the technology developed by the Indian Institute of Petroleum; which claims to yield paraffin wax from used plastics.

At the same time, scarcity of raw materials is likely to restrain the market; as it is inversely proportional to the price. As such, it could be concluded that fluctuating prices of raw materials are expected to act as a barrier to the wax market.
