Key Highlights
A recent research report published by Transparency Market Research
projects the global wax market to expand at a CAGR of 2.62% during
the period between 2019 and 2027. The report,
titled “Wax Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends
and Forecast, 2019 - 2027,” estimates the global wax to reach US$
10.73 Bn by 2027, from US$ 8.49 bn in 2018.
The report points out that the rising base of end-use industries such as
adhesives, rubber, cosmetics, packaging, candles, and wood and fire-logs is
driving the global wax market. The growing demand from the packaging and
cosmetics industries is particularly contributing towards the growth of the
market. However, the closure of Group I base oil refineries will inhibit the
growth of the global wax market during the forecast horizon. The overall market
has a huge opportunity to grow with the introduction of gas-to-liquid (GTL)
waxes.

Segmental Outlook: Global Wax Market
In terms of product types, the report segments the global wax market into petroleum and mineral wax, synthetic wax, and natural wax. Petroleum and mineral wax has been sub-segmented into microcrystalline wax, paraffin wax, and other petroleum and mineral waxes. Synthetic wax has been categorized into polymer wax, GTL wax, and others. Natural wax has been segmented into vegetable wax, bee wax, and other natural wax. In 2018, petroleum and mineral wax was the largest product segment in the market. However, during the forecast period, synthetic wax is expected to be the fastest growing product type as it resembles petroleum to a large extent and can be used as a substitute for petroleum wax across a number of applications. Synthetic wax held a share of 11% in the market in 2018. In the coming years, the natural wax segment is expected to register moderate growth.
