The Asia-Pacific diesel exhaust fluid (AdBlue) market is projected to register healthy growth during the forecast period, 2021-2030. The market was valued at USD 1,886.81 million in 2020 and is projected to register a CAGR of 9.91% to reach USD 5,411.94 million by 2030. The purity of the AdBlue is of paramount importance, as any impurity in DEF can disturb the whole SCR system and, eventually, the performance of the vehicle. The packaging of AdBlue, therefore, is rigorously tested by the American Petroleum Institute to ensure that it meets industry-wide quality standards. It is available in a variety of storage options such as bulk, totes, bottles, or jugs. The prominent factors driving the growth of the market are the increased adoption of carbon emission norms by automotive manufacturers coupled with the growing sale of passenger cars and commercial vehicles across the globe. However, the gradual adoption of electric vehicles and the mass production of e-vehicles is expected to hamper the growth of diesel-powered vehicles in the coming years, thereby hampering the growth of the diesel exhaust fluid (AdBlue) market during the assessment period. Nevertheless, the development of hybrid selective non-catalytic reduction (SNCR) and the adoption of SCR technology in passenger vehicles are likely to boost the demand for diesel exhaust fluid (AdBlue) and create lucrative opportunities for the players operating in the Asia-Pacific market.
The increasing demand for diesel exhaust fluid (AdBlue) in end-use industries, including automotive, agriculture, and construction, is the major factor projected to boost the market growth. The growth of the market is also driven by the increasing regulations regarding greenhouse gas (GHGs) emissions and an increase in the demand for the product in the automotive industry. However, the fluctuating prices of raw materials, such as urea, will majorly hamper the market growth during the forecast period.
Based on application, the market is broadly categorized into automotive, construction machinery, farm machinery, electronic generators, railway engines, and others. In terms of value, automotive application was valued at USD 1,180.77 million in 2020.
According to MRFR analysis, the Asia-Pacific diesel exhaust fluid (AdBlue) market has been segmented based on country into China, Japan, India, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, and the Rest of Asia-Pacific. China held the largest share of 37.28% in 2020 due to stringent regulations in the region and automobile and agricultural machinery manufacturers abiding by these regulations, which is expected to increase the consumption of diesel exhaust fluid (AdBlue). The market was valued at USD 703.49 million in 2020 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 11.28% to reach USD 2,284.74 million by the end of 2030.
BASF SE (Germany), Yara (Norway), Mitsui Chemicals Inc (Japan), BP p.l.c (UK), Borealis AG (Austria), Nissan Chemical Corporation (Japan), GreenChem (Netherlands), NOVAX Material & Technology Inc (China), Royal Dutch Shell PLC (Netherlands), and Adeco doo (Siberia) are the major companies operating in the market that compete in terms of quality and price.
