LONDON – The demand on the global butadiene market is indicating reasonable growth – it is also expected that it will move upwards by 2-2,5% annually in the coming 5-6 years. The butadiene markets in the developed countries are not considered as considerable contributors to the demand growth – the market has already reached its saturation point. However the developing BRIC countries make up the major driver behind the butadiene industry activity.
Up to 50% of the produced volume of butadiene is taken up by SBR and polybutadiene. These applications are forecast to lead the demand in the near future as they are both set to lavishly develop through 2017.
Insightful information and analysis of the butadiene market is the focus of the new market research report “Butadiene (BD): 2012 World Market Outlook and Forecast up to 2017”. The report provides a close-up review of the global, regional and country-wise markets for butadiene. The analysis offered by the study incorporates data on the past and present market situation and unveils detailed market projections.
The butadiene industry is examined in detail and the key market parameters are indicated – production and consumption in the reviewed countries, trade activities, prices for the material in the reviewed periods. Market projections present the future of butadiene industry in the coming 5 years and show the future trends and opportunities, volumes and prices.
