Succinic Acid is also known as amber acid, which is a key building block of a wide range of secondary chemicals used across various applications, such as pharmaceutical, food & beverage, solvents & lubricants, polyurethane, and agriculture. The major opportunities for succinic acid are provided by PBS, 1, 4 – BDO and food applications. Further, the increasing potential applications of PBS in various industries are expected to drive the demand for succinic acid for the manufacturing of PBS.

Market Dynamics

Market Drivers

The major driver contributing to the growth of the market for succinic acid is its increasing adoption as a substitute of adipic acid in polyurethane production and in various applications, such as industrial, personal care, and food & beverages.

Segments Analysis

By Type

"The petro-based segment accounted for the largest market share."

The market is segmented as bio-based and petro-based segments. The petro-based succinic acid segment global market share more than 50.1% in 2021 and dominates the market during the assessment period, as it is cost-effective and offers better efficiency as compared to bio-based succinic acid. The growth of the segment is owing to it being majorly used in the food & beverage industry as a flavor enhancer and in the chemical industry such as polyester polyols for manufacturing polyurethane and polybutylene succinate (PBS).

End-Use Industry Trends

"The industrial segment accounted for the largest market share."

The succinic acid market is segmented as industrial, coatings, food & beverages, cosmetics, pharmaceutical, and others. The industrial segment global market share more than 40.0% in 2021 and is expected to remain the dominant as well as fastest-growing end-use industry segment during the assessment period. The wide use of succinic acid is found in food packaging, as these are non-toxic, biodegradables, having better heat resistance as compared to other biopolymers, which is the major reason for the dominance of this segment.

Regional Insights

"Asia-Pacific accounted for the largest market share."

Asia-Pacific is estimated to be the largest market for succinic acid during the assessment period, with China, Southeast Asia, and India, being the major countries with lucrative growth opportunities. The growth of the market is driven by the growth of various end-use industries, such as industrial, food & beverage, pharmaceutical, and coating industries, which is generating huge demand for succinic acid and the presence of a large number of succinic acid manufacturers in the Asia-Pacific region. In China, succinic acid is majorly being used to produce a series of derivatives, such as dimethyl succinate (DMS) and 1,4-BDO, which are further used for soldering flux and surfactant applications in the chemical industry. North America and Europe are also expected to offer substantial growth opportunities during the assessment period. In addition, Europe share more than 35% market in 2021.
