The global bio solvents market size is expected to reach USD 5.21 billion by 2030, registering to grow at a CAGR of 3.9% from 2024 to 2030 according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Volatile petrochemical prices coupled with growing concerns regarding VOC presence in conventional solvents are expected to remain a key driving factor for the global bio solvents market. Bio solvents have been gaining acceptance across key end-use industries and are expected to replace most of the conventional solvents on account of its biodegradability and toxin-free properties. Increasing demand for green paints & coatings is expected to further complement the market growth. Increasing market penetration in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries is also expected to have a positive influence on market growth.
Increasing penetration of lactate esters in coatings, printing inks, and industrial cleaning applications is expected to drive its demand over the forecast period. Growth of paints & coatings industry on account of increasing construction spending particularly in emerging markets of Asia Pacific and Latin America is expected to further drive its demand. Glycols are expected to be the fastest-growing product segment during the forecast period. Positive outlook on the global automotive industry is expected to fuel its demand over the next six years.
