White Spirit Market Trends
This section covers the major market trends shaping the White Spirit Market according to our research experts:
Growing Demand from Paint Thinner Application
- White spirit is a petroleum-derived, transparent liquid that stands to be an effective organic solvent widely used as a paint thinner.
- White spirit is commonly used in the construction industry, wherever paints are used. The growth of the global construction industry is boosting the demand for paints and coatings, stimulating the white spirit market.
- According to the US Census Bureau, during December 2021, the construction spending in the country was estimated at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of USD 1,639.9 billion, 0.2% more than the revised November estimate of USD 1,636.5 billion.
- China's growth is fueled mainly by rapid residential and commercial building expansion. China is encouraging and enduring a continuous urbanization process, with a projected rate of 70% by 2030.
- Also, China's construction output peaked in 2021 at about USD 4.44 trillion. As a result, these factors tend to increase the demand for the white spirit during the forecast period.
- In addition, white spirit is used for wooden furniture or floors, making it useful for application in the furniture industry. With numerous construction projects under planning or development phases worldwide, the expected growth in demand for furniture is also expected to create apparent demand for white spirit over the years to come.
- All the factors above are expected to drive the demand for white spirit for paint thinner applications over the forecast period.
Asia-Pacific to Dominate the Market
