Global Bisphenol S Market Analysis: Plant Capacity, Location, Production, Operating Efficiency, Demand & Supply, End Use, Regional Demand, Company Share, Sales Channel, Manufacturing Process, Industry Market Size, 2015-2032
Bisphenol S demand stood at 52.0 Thousand Tonnes in 2022 and is expected to reach 81.21 Thousand Tonnes by 2032, growing at a healthy CAGR of 4.52% until 2032. Bisphenol S is an organic compound, that is considered a better alternative to Bisphenol A as it has been scientifically proven to be less harmful. BPS is gaining momentum & replacing BPA in thermal paper manufacturing and epoxy production across the globe. The key advantages of Bisphenol S are that it is less acidic as compared to Bisphenol-A. Even though the awareness about this product is increasing, the product supply is surplus in comparison to the demand generated. Also, the companies are currently operating at lower rates due to uncertainty in demand potential owing to the current pandemic situation.
The product Bisphenol S has a variety of applications as Heat Sensitive Developers, Polymer Modifiers, Flame Retardants, Water Soluble Resins, Thermosetting Resins, and also for the production of different intermediates. More than 42% of the demand is generated by Heat Sensitive Developers that are used for the manufacture of Thermal Papers. Amongst all these end-users, the majority of the demand for BPS is generated by thermal paper across the globe. Increasing demand for online purchasing coupled with the increasing importance of labeling in the food & beverage industry is promoting the use of thermal papers, which in turn is driving BPS consumption. Increasing the use of epoxy resins to give a specific aesthetic to a place, has catalyzed the BPS demand. Polyurethane systems have been associated with offering strength, durability, and resilience while dealing with challenging conditions such as heavy footfall, physical impacts, extreme temperatures, and corrosive chemicals. These offerings by PU resins are driving the BPS market growth.
The demand for Bisphenol S has recently taken an exponential pace in the European market as various health hazards possessed by Bisphenol are escalating, environmental regulators in Europe are gradually imposing a ban on consumption of Bisphenol A. BPA is on the EU’s candidate list for its reprotoxic and endocrine-disrupting properties and was subject to an EU ban in 2016, effective from 2020. In North America, Bisphenol S has been listed as an indirect food additive to be used as a monomer in the production of polyethersulfone resins. Solvay manufactures Bisphenol S for thermal paper manufacturers and is also using it as an intermediate in sulphone polymers to cater to the growing demand for thermoplastics from the automobile, aerospace, and electronics sectors. USFDA has already amended its regulations to no longer provide for the use of BPA-based polycarbonate resins in baby bottles and sippy cups as well as BPA-based epoxy resins as coatings in packaging for infant formula which is, in turn, driving the demand for BPS.
Asia-Pacific BPS market is expected to grow at a strong growth rate during the forecast period as the region has become a manufacturing hub for polymers, plastics, and electronics. According to World Bank’s report, despite the slowdown of the global economy and COVID-19 pandemic, the region is expected to witness comparatively better growth in the economy. Government initiatives such as ‘Make in India’, bringing Japanese manufacturing back in-country, or Vietnam’s growing industrialization are creating a future growth path for BPS manufacturers in the Asia Pacific region. However, it is anticipated that a spurt in the global demand as several economies ramp up their manufacturing units to cater to the exponential rise in consumer demand would further accelerate the market growth in the forecast period.
Major players operating in the Bisphenol S market include BASF SE, Konishi Chemical Ind. Co., Ltd., Solvay S.A., Nisso Metallochemical Co., Ltd., Jiangyin Changsheng Chemical Co., Ltd., Volant-Chem Corp., Nicca Chemical Co., Ltd., Chongqing Qiutian Chemical Co., Ltd., Zhangjiagang Gangda Chemical Co., Ltd., Nantong Botao Chemical Co., Ltd., and others.
