C RESIN MARKET OVERVIEW

The global C resin market size was forecasted to be worth USD 3.27 billion in 2024, expected to achieve USD 5.56 billion by 2033 with a CAGR of 6.1% during the forecast period from 2025 to 2033.

C resin is a form of coumaron indene resin that is chemically inert and has good electrical insulating qualities. It is soluble in hydrocarbons, ketones, and esters 12.It is an effective tackifier and processing aid in the compounding of a variety of rubbers including NBR, CR, EPDM, CSM, CPE, NR, and acrylic rubbers. Resins are various compounds, and without a specific type (such as epoxy resin, polyester resin, or others), it's difficult to provide extremely specific information. Resins are utilised in a wide range of industries, including the automotive, aerospace, construction, and electronics industries.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Lockdowns and Restrictions Disrupted the Supply, Demand and Havocked  the Market Growth

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the C resin market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

Global supply chains were affected as a result of lockdowns, travel restrictions, and manufacturing closures. Many resin manufacturers have difficulties procuring raw ingredients and exporting finished goods, resulting in production and delivery delays. Many resin-using industries, such as automotive, aerospace, and construction, saw a drop in demand as a result of lower consumer spending, project delays, and supply chain disruptions. This resulted in a drop in resin orders. Like other commodities, the resin market witnessed price volatility. Oil price fluctuations, which are a crucial component in many types of resins, have had an impact on resin pricing dynamics.

LATEST TRENDS

Sustainable, Bio-Based and Nanocomposite Resins to Grow Market Potentially

There is a rising emphasis on environmentally friendly and sustainable resins made from renewable sources or recycled materials. Companies have been spending in R&D to develop resins with a lower environmental impact. Nanotechnology has been used with resin systems to produce nanocomposites with improved mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties. These materials are used in a variety of high-tech sectors. Demand for eco-friendly resins is being driven by rising environmental restrictions and a greater emphasis on sustainability. Because of environmental concerns, resins with minimal volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions and manufactured from renewable or recycled ingredients are in high demand.
