Research and Markets: Global Biocides - the Global Consumption of Biocides Was $ 3,141 Million at Active Manufacture Level in 2002, 40 % Growth on 1992.


Business Editors

DUBLIN, Ireland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 21, 2004

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com) has announced the addition of The Global Biocide biocide (bī`əsīd'), synonym for pesticide.  Report to their offering.

With the current maturity in the major biocide markets, leading producers of biocide active ingredients are increasingly focusing on new formulations and specialty applications for profitable growth.

They are also looking beyond the major consuming regions to developing areas in Africa, China, Eastern Europe Eastern Europe

The countries of eastern Europe, especially those that were allied with the USSR in the Warsaw Pact, which was established in 1955 and dissolved in 1991.
, Latin America Latin America, the Spanish-speaking, Portuguese-speaking, and French-speaking countries (except Canada) of North America, South America, Central America, and the West Indies. , and the Pacific Rim Pacific Rim, term used to describe the nations bordering the Pacific Ocean and the island countries situated in it. In the post–World War II era, the Pacific Rim has become an increasingly important and interconnected economic region. , according to according to

 a new multivolume study recently launched by Biocide Information Services See Information Systems. .

The global consumption of biocides was $ 3,141 million at active manufacture level in 2002, 40 % growth on 1992.

This performance reflects not only end industry growth, regulatory and technological changes but also the growing use of biocides as hygiene aids in a broad range of applications.

Specialty biocides includes algicides, incan bactericides, films fungicides This page aims to list well-known chemical compounds, to stimulate the creation of Wikipedia articles.

 percentage down, according to Niall D'Arcy, project manager at Biocide Information Services.

"Growth in the North American biocides market has slowed down, but competition for market share among the leaders has only accelerated. Consolidation in the industry has really raised the stakes for companies like Avecia, Basf, Bayer, Ciba, Clariant, Dow, Lonza, Rohm and Haas Rohm and Haas Company (NYSE: ROH), a Philadelphia, Pennsylvania based company, manufactures miscellaneous materials. A Fortune 500 Company, Rohm and Haas employs more than 17,000 people in 27 countries. The annual sales revenue of Rohm and Haas stands at about USD 8.2 billion.  and Troy, and they're looking to Countries in developing regions."

Countries such as China, Eastern Europe, India and South America South America, fourth largest continent (1991 est. pop. 299,150,000), c.6,880,000 sq mi (17,819,000 sq km), the southern of the two continents of the Western Hemisphere.  continue to offer growth opportunities as per capita income Noun 1. per capita income - the total national income divided by the number of people in the nation

 rises and human health issues are accorded more importance, D'Arcy said.

In addition, basic biocide producers will rely more on specialty niches ie hygiene sector for growth as the three largest application segments, coatings, personal care and wood mature.

"With mature markets in the large consuming regions and generic products starting to affect the market environment, specialty niches will offer a profitable outlet for active ingredient manufacturers," said D'Arcy.

With increased attention to specialty market sectors and growing regional markets, Biocide companies are expected to introduce new formulations to address shifts in demand. And these companies must also examine the specific needs of each regional market to adjust their strategies for growth accordingly.This report provides in depth information on the market for biocide products within consumer and industrial applications. It includes detailed market analyses and discussions of industry trends.

It assesses the impact of current and emerging regulations on the biocides used.

The report develops forecasts for biocides from 2003 through 2008. It discusses the efforts of biocide manufacturers and formulators in launching new biocide formulations to meet changing market requirements, for example build up of resistance, lower costs, regulations.

The report also provides an overview of 18 enduser applications for biocides and data on each of the major geographical regions. It provides value and volume data for different biocides.

In addition, the report provides a summary of each of the biocides that are being used to control microbes and insects within consumer and industrial applications. Industry influences on the biocides market are also discussed.

The scope of the study is worldwide.

The overview section provides extended definitions of the biocides to provide the reader with a clear understanding of the technology involved.

In addition, this section provides an analysis of biocide consumption by application and region.

There is a profile of an ideal biocide as outlined by endusers.

The company profiles section includes a detailed discussion of the companies that have pioneered biocide development and examines how their available products and services are setting the standards for preservation.

In this report more than 100 companies are discussed, and 20 of the most important companies are examined in depth. The base year for this study is 2002. Figures are based on revenue figures at the manufacturers' level and are projected at 2002-U.S. dollar value.

This report answers these sector questions:

- What are the future directions of the biocide industry?

- What are the most important biocides being used in enduser

applications today?

- What are the most promising biocides ?

- What impact will regulations have on biocides consumption?
