The Global Carbon Monoxide Market was valued at USD 5.2 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.3% over the forecast period 2024-2032, reaching approximately USD 6.97 billion by 2032. The market growth is fueled by expanding industrial applications of carbon monoxide, particularly in chemical synthesis, metallurgy, pharmaceuticals, and electronics.
Carbon monoxide plays a crucial role as a reducing agent in metal fabrication, as well as in the production of key chemicals such as methanol, aldehydes, and phosgene, which are extensively used in polyurethane, plastics, and bulk chemicals manufacturing. The growing demand for carbon monoxide in the chemical sector has positioned it as a key commodity for industrial applications.
The Asia Pacific region dominates the global carbon monoxide market, holding the largest revenue share due to its rapid industrialization and increasing demand for carbon monoxide in chemical processing and metal fabrication. The presence of major manufacturing economies such as China, India, and Japan further reinforces the region's stronghold on industrial CO consumption. Meanwhile, North America and Europe remain key markets due to technological advancements in CO production and increasing applications in biotechnology and electronics.
Several key players, including Air Liquide, Linde plc, Air Products and Chemicals, Inc., and Praxair Inc., are actively investing in expanding production capacities. For instance, in May 2023, Air Products announced the construction of two carbon monoxide production facilities in Texas, adding over 70 million standard cubic feet per day (MMSCFD) to its Gulf Coast CO pipeline network. These investments indicate strong demand and future growth potential in the carbon monoxide market.
