The future of Formaldehyde will be positive in our country due to growing consumption of formaldehyde by multiple end user industries including constructions, furniture, paints & coatings, textiles, fertilizers & pesticides, etc., and is expected to increase at a CAGR of 3.9% during the forecasted period of 2016 to 2021.

The Southern region of the country is the largest hub of Formaldehyde consumption, accounting for almost half of the domestic consumption. Demand in other regions of the is, expected to increase in the future.

Balaji Formalin Private Limited, Kanoria Chemicals and Industries Limited, Allied Resins and Allied Chemicals Ltd, Hindustan Organic and Chemical Limited, Atul limited and Assam Petrochemical Limited are the chief Formaldehyde manufacturers in the domestic market. Currently, Nepal is the biggest importer of Indian Formaldehyde, importing more than half of the total quantity exported from India. Sri Lanka, Kenya, Bhutan and UAE hold the remainder of the export share. India, however needs to further expand its percentage of exports and increase the production up to its full capacity so as to enhance the export market.

World consumption of formaldehyde is forecasted to grow from 37% at an average annual rate of about 4% from 2016 to 2020. China is the single-largest market for formaldehyde, accounting for 44% of the world demand; other countries with large markets include the United States, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Poland, Russia, South Korea, Japan, Brazil, and Canada.

Overall economic performance will continue to be the best indicator of future demands for formaldehyde.
