The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic conditions have severely affected every sector around the world. Whereas, the chemicals and materials sectors were moderately affected during the pandemic. This is primarily due to the uncut demand for chemicals for healthcare, life science, and cleaning agents. However, other elements of chemical and material sectors such as paints, industrial oil, construction materials are facing diminution in demand. Strict lockdown resulted in a nearly 50-60% reduction in supply for raw materials, which directly affected the manufacturing process. Further, halt on many end-use industries directly affected the chemical demand all around the world.
Chiral Chemicals Market Overview
Chiral chemicals are special class of compounds, which covers asymmetrical carbon center in molecule. These molecules are non-superimposable on the mirror image, known as the enantiomers or the optical isomers. Product is being progressively used for various application in agrochemicals, pharmaceutical, and fine chemicals. Numerous corporations have been trying to develop technology for increasing yield of these chiral chemicals.
KYROBIO is the one such initiative taken by European Commission Framework Seven to develop biocatalysts for industrial synthesis of these chiral chemicals. Companies such as, BASF SE; Rhodia, Inc. The Dow Chemical Company; Perkin Elmer; and the Codexis, Inc. are some of key companies, which are involved in production of numerous such pharmaceutical intermediates.
These companies are focusing more on development of the application-specific products to surge product efficacy. The introduction of microreactors has led to an improvement in manufacturing efficiency, thereby allowing local manufacturers to enter the chiral chemical market. The main end-use industries in value chain are agrochemicals, the pharmaceuticals, and fragrance manufacturers. Bulk ordering is major feature of value chain as the key manufacturers engage in the practice for supply of the raw materials.
Chiral Chemicals Market Segment Overview
Demand for the enantiomerically pure products in the pharmaceutical formulations is estimated to propel the demand for the chiral chemicals in the application segment. Technical advancement and R&D by the companies are anticipated to propel demand in Europe and North America over forecast period. Agrochemicals are expected to witness significant growth of more than 14% from 2015 to 2027 on account of the growing demand for the eco-friendly pesticides.
Herbicides, plant growth regulators, pesticides, fungicides, and pheromones are some of agrochemicals manufactured using the chiral chemicals. The rising population coupled with a focus on increasing the crop yield is likely to augment the product demand in agriculture chemicals application in the future. Growing demand for the eco-friendly agrochemicals which target specific areas of the plant health is anticipated to widen application scope for the chiral chemicals in agrochemicals segment.
Chiral Chemicals Regional Overview
North America accounted for the largest share of the global chiral chemicals market on account of technological advancements and the presence of a large number of key companies. In addition, rising demand for naturally-derived fragrances in the region is anticipated to fuel growth over the next few years. Asia Pacific is likely to witness the fastest growth of over 18% from 2016 to 2024 on account of increasing foreign investments in China and India.
Low industrial costs due to the cheap labor attract the pharmaceutical manufacturers in the countries, thereby increasing product demand. In addition, extensive R&D on the development of new drugs for the treatment of rare diseases is expected to propel the chiral chemicals market growth. The market in Europe is driven by countries, such as Germany and Switzerland, where the number of pharmaceutical manufacturing companies is high. Product demand is expected to increase in this region owing to the rising number of contract manufacturing facilities in Eastern Europe.
Chiral Chemicals Market Competitor overview
Some of the prominent companies in the chiral chemicals market include BASF SE; Johnson Matthey PLC; Solvias AG; Strem Chemicals; Bayer AG; Codexis, Inc.; Chiral Technologies; Rhodia; W. R. Grace & Co.; PerkinElmer, Inc.; The Dow Chemical Company; and Chiracon GmbH. Key strategies adopted by these companies to increase their global reach include partnerships and agreements.
For instance, in February 2016, the Strem Chemicals, Inc. signed a partnership with the company named Chiral Technologies. to allocate Daicel’s chiral reagents in Europe and the U.S. This helped company to expand its product offerings. Likewise, in Jul 2016, Chiral Technologies entered into an exclusive distribution agreement with the company named Scanco International S.A. to support its existence in the Central & South America.
