Global Synthetic Lubricants and Functional Fluids Market: Region-wise Outlook

In 2014, Europe accounted for a major share of the global synthetic lubricants and functional fluids market. However, the region is likely to lose share as a result of the shift in manufacturing activities to parts of Asia and South America. Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness a high CAGR growth between 2015 and 2025. Developing economies like China and India have shown high performance, owing to the undeterred pace of industrialization. There is a strong domestic demand in most of the industrial sectors in the Chinese and Indian markets. The budding automotive sector in China and India is predicted to be a key driver for the increased demand. Furthermore, the growing aviation industry in the region is further projected to boost the demand for synthetic lubricants and functional fluids over the forecast period.

Global Synthetic Lubricants and Functional Fluids Market: Drivers

The requirement of high performance products and increasingly stringent environmental regulations are the key factors driving the growth of the global synthetic lubricants and functional fluids market.

Growth of the global synthetics and functional fluids market will also be fueled by the rising availability of high quality base stocks as a result of increasing investments in newer base stock capacities all over the world.

Owing to the expanding supply of the synthetic lubricants and functional fluids, original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), which are taking steps towards global specifications, are increasingly willing to advocate the use of high performance synthetic products.

Synthetic lubricants and functional fluids have emerged as the ideal choice, owing to its ability to decrease the maintenance time and downtime costs by increasing the drain intervals.

Another key factor driving the growth of the global synthetic lubricants and functional fluids market is the superior performance obtainable by synthetic lubricants over their conventional counterparts in terms of low friction, high temperature performance, and higher load carrying capacity. Additionally, the rising demand from the automobile and industrial segment in Asia-Pacific drives the growth of the global synthetic lubricants and functional fluids market.

Global Synthetic Lubricants and Functional Fluids Market: Restraints

Factors such as higher fuel prices and low disposable incomes have kept customers off-road with the passion for SUVs waning, thus causing decline in the number of vehicle miles driven. Weak employment rates and spending power have accounted for lower new vehicle sales, thus hindering the growth of the global synthetic lubricants and functional fluids market.

Additionally, decline in the industrial production, automotive production, and mining and construction activities have negatively impacted the global synthetic lubricants and functional fluids market.

Global Synthetic Lubricants and Functional Fluids Market: Key Players
