Strategic Insights
Ethylene Dichloride Market Growth Drivers- Growing Demand for PVC in Construction and Infrastructure: One of the main growth factors for the EDC market is the increasing demand for PVC in construction and infrastructure. PVC is widely used as a building material, which includes pipes, windows, doors, flooring, and roofing. With increasing infrastructure investments in emerging economies, the demand for PVC is rising and, in turn, is driving the requirement for EDC, the key precursor in PVC manufacturing. This surge in demand for construction projects is expected to further propel the ethylene dichloride market.
- Increasing Automotive and Electronics Industries: Ethylene dichloride is vital in the production of a wide range of plastic products. It is used in the automotive and electronics sectors. The demand for lighter and stronger materials in automobile manufacturing and sophisticated plastic parts in electronics has opened up a significant market for EDC. As these industries expand around the world, the demand for ethylene dichloride will remain strong and support market growth.
- Growing Chemical Production Activities: Ongoing industrialization and an expansion of manufacturing activities in emerging economies, mainly Asia-Pacific and Latin America, create an ongoing demand for ethylene dichloride. EDC is a starting material in the manufacture of many chemicals such as VCM, a precursor to PVC. Rising chemical production capacity in the same regions continues to provide a base for supporting ethylene dichloride demand.
- Shift towards sustainable, ecologically friendly production: As environmental regulations are becoming increasingly stringent across the globe, the ethylene dichloride market is experiencing a trend toward more sustainable production methods. Manufacturers are focusing on reducing carbon footprints and improving energy efficiency in the production of EDC. For instance, the shift toward the use of renewable feedstocks and adopting cleaner production processes is gaining momentum in response to global sustainability goals.
- Technological Advancements in Production Processes: New production technologies are enhancing the efficiency of ethylene dichloride production. Catalytic cracking innovations and optimized cracking processes have increased yields and energy efficiency. As these technologies continue to advance, they reduce costs and improve profitability for manufacturers, which will drive market growth in the coming years.
- Consolidation and Strategic Mergers & Acquisitions: In the last few years, key players in the EDC market have been into mergers, acquisitions, and joint ventures to expand their portfolios and gain a competitive advantage. This consolidation trend enhances companies' production capacity, makes supply chains more efficient, and opens up new markets, especially in emerging regions that are experiencing a rise in demand for chemicals.
- Growth in Emerging Economies: The demand for construction materials such as PVC increases with infrastructural investments in emerging economies. The demand for ethylene dichloride increases in the above substances because it is used considerably in the production of PVC, and with increased construction projects on roads, buildings, and utilities in these regions, the demand for the product will therefore increase.
- Manufacturing Growth in Key Industries: A healthy industrial scenario strengthens the demand for chemicals. It is fueled by increased manufacturing activities in industries like automobiles and electronics, which have boosted up ethylene dichloride demand, enhancing the production of various plastic segments for the market's sustained momentum.
- Stricter Environmental Regulations on Ethylene Dichloride Production: Strict environmental regulation would probably affect how much ethylene dichloride is produced and used. More stringent regulations could increase costs of compliance measures, eventually making the availability of ethylene dichloride difficult, and would, at the same time, probably drive production to more environmentally friendly practices or alternatives in the chemical industry.

The Insight Partners performs research in 4 major stages: Data Collection & Secondary Research, Primary Research, Data Analysis and Data Triangulation & Final Review.
- Data Collection and Secondary Research:
As a market research and consulting firm operating from a decade, we have published many reports and advised several clients across the globe. First step for any study will start with an assessment of currently available data and insights from existing reports. Further, historical and current market information is collected from Investor Presentations, Annual Reports, SEC Filings, etc., and other information related to company’s performance and market positioning are gathered from Paid Databases (Factiva, Hoovers, and Reuters) and various other publications available in public domain.
Several associations trade associates, technical forums, institutes, societies and organizations are accessed to gain technical as well as market related insights through their publications such as research papers, blogs and press releases related to the studies are referred to get cues about the market. Further, white papers, journals, magazines, and other news articles published in the last 3 years are scrutinized and analyzed to understand the current market trends.
- Primary Research:

To comprehend the market dynamics for the nation, a number of growth variables, inhibitors, application areas, and current market trends are researched. The aforementioned elements aid in determining the country's overall market's growth potential.
- 3.3 Company Profile:
The “Table of Contents” is formulated by listing and analyzing more than 25 - 30 companies operating in the market ecosystem across geographies. However, we profile only 10 companies as a standard practice in our syndicate reports. These 10 companies comprise leading, emerging, and regional players. Nonetheless, our analysis is not restricted to the 10 listed companies, we also analyze other companies present in the market to develop a holistic view and understand the prevailing trends. The “Company Profiles” section in the report covers key facts, business description, products & services, financial information, SWOT analysis, and key developments. The financial information presented is extracted from the annual reports and official documents of the publicly listed companies. Upon collecting the information for the sections of respective companies, we verify them via various primary sources and then compile the data in respective company profiles. The company level information helps us in deriving the base number as well as in forecasting the market size.
- 3.4 Developing Base Number:
Aggregation of sales statistics (2020-2022) and macro-economic factor, and other secondary and primary research insights are utilized to arrive at base number and related market shares for 2022. The data gaps are identified in this step and relevant market data is analyzed, collected from paid primary interviews or databases. On finalizing the base year market size, forecasts are developed on the basis of macro-economic, industry and market growth factors and company level analysis.
- Data Triangulation and Final Review:
The market findings and base year market size calculations are validated from supply as well as demand side. Demand side validations are based on macro-economic factor analysis and benchmarks for respective regions and countries. In case of supply side validations, revenues of major companies are estimated (in case not available) based on industry benchmark, approximate number of employees, product portfolio, and primary interviews revenues are gathered. Further revenue from target product/service segment is assessed to avoid overshooting of market statistics. In case of heavy deviations between supply and demand side values, all thes steps are repeated to achieve synchronization.
We follow an iterative model, wherein we share our research findings with Subject Matter Experts (SME’s) and Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) until consensus view of the market is not formulated – this model negates any drastic deviation in the opinions of experts. Only validated and universally acceptable research findings are quoted in our reports.
We have important check points that we use to validate our research findings – which we call – data triangulation, where we validate the information, we generate from secondary sources with primary interviews and then we re-validate with our internal data bases and Subject matter experts. This comprehensive model enables us to deliver high quality, reliable data in shortest possible time.
