The Market for Specialty Chemicals in 2010-11

 

The Indian chemical and petrochemical industry was worth $83bn in 2010 and it was the third largest  in Asia and 12th worldwide by volume. The industry has consistently been moving towards knowledge based specialty products but with a recognition of the importance of being self-sufficient in primary feedstocks to service the growing demand for higher added value products.

 

The global specialty chemicals market, at $740bn represents 22% of the global chemical industry, saw a sharp rebound from the downturn in 2009.

 

Increasing raw material costs continued to be a major factor, accelerating further in H2 2010 and impacting on margins but this was mitigated by the increase in demand enabling some companies to improve margins and post higher sales levels. Many companies undertook restructurings to reduce costs and thus took greater advantage from higher volumes. Other companies restructured the portfolio towards even more higher margin specialties and quality products.

 

Towards the back end of 2010 and into 2011, the level of M and A activity increased leading to further consolidation within the market with the largest deal being BASF’s acquisition of Cognis.

 

The global crisis and recovery also signalled the overall strength of Asia in chemical manufacture and the growing importance of India as both a producer and consumer of specialty chemicals.

 

The Indian specialty chemicals (excluding Knowledge Chemicals) market was estimated at $15bn in 2010 and is forecasted to grow at 15% pa to 2015 primarily driven by the growth in the number of middle class consumers who are able to afford products which consume specialty chemicals. This in turn is underpinned by growth in exports to meet the demands in existing global markets for competitively priced solutions to customer needs.

 

Due to the investment in base petrochemicals and other feedstocks within India, MNEs within the Specialty Chemical industry are focusing on India as a manufacturing base for both the local and global markets.

 

Specialty Chemicals Division

 

The Division’s main activities are in the manufacture and marketing of active ingredients for use within the global Personal Care and Cosmetics industries. These active components represent 40% of all chemicals used within Personal Care products. In India, the market is forecasted to grow to just under $800m by 2015.

 

The company has been recognized as one of the leading manufacturing companies in India specializing in this industry segment and through its investments in both production and research, is well placed to consolidate its position in domestic and export growth markets. As per Plimsoll latest global ranking Vivimed has been ranked 54th Largest Company in the Hair, Nail and Skincare industry.

 

The Division continued its impressive growth performance achieving sales of Rs.316.28mn, a 21% increase over the previous year this was achieved through a combination of increase in market share and new product approvals in both domestic and global markets. Substantial investment are made in existing facilities at Bonthapally and Bidar for hair dye intermediates, hair care, sun care and antimicrobials, as part of its on-going expansion plan.

 

A manufacturing and marketing partnership with ISP Inc. (USA) for sunscreens was announced and new manufacturing facilities were commissioned and started during the year. A distribution agreement for Latin America excluding Brazil was agreed with Merck AG for the Division’s products.

 

In response to the growing demands for natural products within the Personal Care industry, the Division started the development of a range of natural skin care actives in partnership with Nisarg, a local SME in Andhra Pradesh. This partnership will be expanded to cover the whole portfolio of natural personal care ingredients.

 

R and D in both India and the UK focused on cost reduction and margin improvement activities as well as the development of new products. The latter included a new range of photo chromic specialty for the Asian market and initial sales quantities of a novel building block for use within the Printable Electronics industry. New products for skin care including skin brightening were introduced.

 

The Division has continued its REACH activities in Europe and significant progress has been made in meeting Their commitments for the next series of authorizations in 2013 in Their capacity as a Lead Registrant and SIEF member.
