2021 Tetrahydrofuran (THF) Market - Size, Share, COVID Impact Analysis and Forecast to 2027
![](/report_cover/2961/2021-tetrahydrofuran-thf-market-size-share-covid-impact-analysis-n-forecast-to-2027_en.gif)
The global tetrahydrofuran market is forecast to increase from $2.15 billion in 2019 to $3.2 billion in 2026 at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.44%.
Strong growth in production volume coupled with investments in capacity expansion activities will support the industry growth. In particular, the demand for spandex and PU elastomers during the forecast period will drive the market growth.
In the pre-COVID case scenario, the industry is forecast to register 8.11% from $2.4 billion in 2020 to $3.88 billion in 2026.
Trends, Drivers and Challenges
Growing Demand for Spandex Fiber - Spandex, Lycra, or elastane is a synthetic fiber often considered as the next generation fiber. The lightweight, soft smooth synthetic fiber is increasingly being used in the garment industry driven by its elasticity property, in particular, in stretchable clothing.
Increasing Environmental Regulations - The companies operating in the global THF market are subjected to several stringent regulations in their business, as the companies are handling chemicals, which may cause harm to humans. The companies have to monitor the whole life cycle of THF from manufacturing, logistics, to final consumption, and disposal in order to reduce toxic effects, which could be affected by the regulations governing the global chemical industry.
Increasing Importance of Green Chemistry - Green chemistry is the design of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use or generation of hazardous substances according to the EPA (US). The green chemicals market is estimated to be around $92 billion in 2020 and is forecast to register over 8.5% compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) over the forecast period to 2026.
Leading Segments and Geographies
Acetylene based manufacturing process remains the most Dominant technology for Tetrahydrofuran worldwide with 39.5% market share in 2019. Further, over the forecast period to 2026, the segment will record 6.8% growth rate to reach $xxxx.x million in 2026.
PTMEG (Polyurethane Fibres) is the dominant application of THF and the segment is expected to register highest growth rate of 7.01% during the forecast period to 2026.
Solvents segment of Asia-Pacific Tetrahydrofuran market is contributing 20.3% of the total market in 2020.
