The global chemical distribution market size is anticipated to reach USD 403.22 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.3% from 2025 to 2030. The growth is majorly driven by rising demand for a variety of specialty and commodity chemicals from numerous end-use industries around the world.
The consumption of specialty goods like CASE (coatings, adhesives, sealants, and elastomers), polymers and resins, agrochemicals, and building chemicals, which are currently used in small amounts, is expected to increase significantly in the future years. Since the regional governments monitor these substances closely, only a few producers create them.
Most end-use sectors, including those in construction, automotive, infrastructure, electronics, and medicines, utilize specialty and commodity chemicals. Due to accelerating industrialization, particularly in China, the demand for chemicals has increased quickly throughout the Asia Pacific region. Significant demand for electronic-grade raw materials has resulted from the country's rising electronics output and customers' increasing purchasing power, which is helping the chemicals distribution industry thrive.
On the contrary, in order to attain structurally efficient cost, market share, and competitive advantage, small and large manufacturing enterprises are expected to form strategic alliances with foreign players. This would enable them to better serve their worldwide customers. Furthermore, the acquisition has been a crucial strategy for chemical firms looking to expand their customer base and fortify their supply chain.
Another issue that presents a barrier in the supply chain for chemicals is the dependence of manufacturers on suppliers for the safe delivery of non-bulk and loose chemical substances and managing varied logistics requirements, including repackaging and custom blending. The National Association of Corporate Directors (NACD) and other regulatory bodies supervise the implementation of safety standards for product transportation and distribution across North America, while REACH oversees safety requirements in Europe.
