The global furfural derivatives market size is expected to reach USD 21.84 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 7.24% from 2023 to 2030, as per the new report by Grand View Research, Inc.. The industry growth is majorly driven by the growing demand for sustainable and bio-based chemicals along with the wide range of applications of furfural derivatives in different industries. Furfural derivatives can be used as key components in the production of biofuels and other green chemicals. The shift toward renewable energy sources and sustainable chemical production is bolstering their consumption globally. Furfural is derived from agricultural waste products like corncobs and sugarcane bagasse.
Thus, the products are considered more environmentally friendly and sustainable than some petrochemical alternatives, thereby contributing to green chemistry initiatives. These derivatives find application in a wide range of industries, including chemicals, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, electronics, and others, which makes them versatile. Asia Pacific was the dominating region and held a revenue share of 66.1% in 2022. The region has abundant sources of agricultural residues like rice husks and sugarcane bagasse, which can be used as feedstock for furfural production. This availability of raw materials has led to increased interest in these derivatives in the region. Environmental awareness and sustainability initiatives have been on the rise in Asia Pacific. Furfural derivatives, being derived from renewable sources, align well with these goals, leading to increased adoption in eco-friendly applications.
