Grease Market size was valued at US$ 5.45 Bn. in 2021 and the total revenue is expected to grow at 2.9 % CAGR through 2022 to 2029, reaching nearly US$ 6.85 Bn.Grease Market Overview:
Grease is a semi-solid compound generated when a thickening ingredient is deposited in a liquid lubricant. It contain chemical mix of thickener, oil, and additives. Grease behaviour is mostly determined by the base oil and additives used in the formulations. Grease additives are used to improve desirable qualities, inhibit unwanted properties, or introduce new properties to improve the grease's operating efficiency.To know about the Research Methodology :- Request Free Sample Report
Grease Market Dynamics:
Rise in automotive manufacturing and shipbuilding business drives the grease market. Growing usage of high-performance greases further propels the market growth. Numerous upcoming construction projects in North America and Asia Pacific to create an opportunity for grease market. Innovation in bio-greases in environmentally sensitive nations and the demand for more high-performance products is foreseen as an opportunity for the global grease market. Manufacturing, construction, and mining are just a few of the industries that use heavy load equipment that needs to be lubricated on a regular basis. Because of rising rivalry and increasing problems in manual processes, all of these businesses require the employment of cutting-edge technology to thrive. Process automation is becoming more popular as the cost of labor rises and safety regulations become more stringent. This is driving the growth of grease market. However, high prices of synthetic greases and volatile oil prices act as a restraining factor for grease market. Development of self-lubricant equipment, unfavorable availability of raw material are some other limiting factor for the grease market growth over the forecast timeframe. The grease market is expected to increase at a negative rate in 2021 as a result of the pandemic. To curb the spread of the virus, APAC countries took early preventive measures, such as social distance. According to sources, the countries of South Asia, including India, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka, as well as Central Asian countries, saw the greatest decline in automobile traffic. According to the IMF, the region's GDP growth rate would drop to 0% in 2021. Economic development will be slow in China, India, and South Korea. In 2021, China's GDP growth rate is expected to dip to 1.2 %Grease Market Segment Analysis:
Based on thickeners, Grease market is segmented into Metallic Soap Thickener, Non-Soap Thickener, Inorganic Thickener and Others. Metallic soap thickener segment is expected to dominate the segment in forecast period. Metallic soap thickener are again sub segmented into Lithium, Calcium, Sodium and Aluminium. More than 90% of the thickeners used worldwide are soap based. Metallic soap thickener possess multifunctional properties that make it suitable to be used in construction & off-highways, automotive, general manufacturing industries. Metallic soap thickener has greater capability of maintaining excellent stability at higher temperature along with other favourable properties such as load bearing, shear stability, water resistance, and rust protection.Based on end user industry, based on connectivity the Grease market is segmented into Power Generation, Automotive, Heavy Equipment, Food & Beverage, Metallurgy & Metal Working, Chemical Manufacturing and Others. Grease is highly used in the automotive industry for wheel bearings, universal joints, suspensions, gears, and connectors. Automotive is the largest and fastest-growing end-use industry for grease market. 80% of the world’s bearings are lubricated with grease. Excellent properties such as temperature tolerance, mechanical stability, water resistance, and anti-oxidants. Rising in manufacturing of machines and equipment for end-use industries.
Grease Market Regional Insights:
Asia Pacific is foreseen to grow at faster rate in grease market. Emerging economies such as China and India are expected to lead the production in the global grease market in the forecast timeframe. Asia Pacific is home to some of the largest light vehicle producers in the world with China, Japan, and Korea comprising just over 37 million units of production or 42 % of the global production market. Vehicles production are growing in several ASEAN countries, with Vietnam and the Philippines leading the charge. SAIC Motor Corporation, China's largest manufacturer, said that it will invest an extra US$350 million in a second production facility in India. Companies are developing new products for this category as a result of rising passenger car production and sales, significantly boosting the growth of the Asia Pacific grease market. Europe is second leading region in global grease market. In terms of its proportion of world trade, Germany is regarded as Europe's most powerful economy. As a result of the uncertainty induced by Brexit, the country's exporters saw a drop in profitability due to sluggish demand from the United Kingdom, the country's third largest exporting partner. Rhenus Lub GmbH & Co KG, for example, launched a high resistant and durable grease in June 2021 that has the potential to lower long-term overall machine costs by drastically lowering the re-lubrication interval time. It was created to work in difficult environments and has uses in electric motors, casting facilities, steel mills, and hot-gas ventilators, among other things. ExxonMobil Corporation is the grease market's second-largest player. In the grease market, the corporation had an 11 percent stake. ExxonMobil is concentrating on expanding its market share by entering new markets. The business completed the expansion of its refinery in Singapore.
