Lignin Market Dynamics

Drivers

Raw Material Availability Influenced the Market Growth

Rising availability of raw material availability and easy production is widening the scope of growth for the market. In other words, lignin can be extracted using a arnage of methods such as sulfite pulping, kraft pulping, organosolv pulping, soda pulping, and hydrolysis techniques which is directly influencing the market growth of the market. Also, growth and expansion of agricultural industry is directly influencing the market growth rate.

Growing Awareness to Direct the Market Demand and Supply

Increased awareness about the range of application of lignin is inducing increased demand and supply on global scale. Low purity lignin can also be extracted from wastes produced in various sectors, such as pulp and paper and bio refineries which is inducing a good market growth rate.

Growing Demand for Paints and Coatings to Direct the Market Growth

Lignin is an ideal substitute for crude-oil-derived naphtha which in turn is inducing the market growth rate. Lignin is a primary source of aromatic substrate and aromatic compounds are vital for the production of paints and coatings. This will yet again bolster the growth of the market.

Opportunities

Rising Research and Development Operations

Increased funding from federal government pertaining to the research and development proficiencies is also bolstering the growth of the market. Research and developmental operations directed towards sustainable development will ensure optimum and judicious use of resources, thereby improving the market value.

COVID-19 Impact on Lignin Market

COVID-19 had a negative impact on the market. This was because of the shutdown of the manufacturing facilities and plants owing to the lockdown and restrictions. Supply chain and transportation disruptions further crated hindrances for the market. In other words, the industry faced a backlash owing to the disruptions in value chain, including workforce losses, raw materials supply, trade and logistics, and uncertain consumer demand. Manufacturers from lignin market are taking efforts to recover from the losses.
