Glycols Market Size Worth USD 89.80 Billion by 2034 | CAGR: 6.50%

The global glycols market size is expected to reach USD 89.80 billion by 2034, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report “Glycols Market Size, Share, Trends, Industry Analysis Report: By Product (Propylene Glycol and Ethylene Glycol), Application, End-Use Industry, and Region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa) – Market Forecast, 2025–2034” gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.

Glycol is a viscous, colorless, and odorless organic chemical compound. It is widely used in antifreeze solutions, cosmetics, printing inks, de-icing agents, textiles, and brake fluids. Ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, and triethylene glycol are some commonly used glycol types.

The expanding packaging industry, fueled by changing consumer tastes and the swift rise in e-commerce, is propelling the growth of the glycols market. Glycols such as ethylene glycol and polyethylene glycol are important in packaging, functioning as humectants, solvents, or coatings. Furthermore, the increasing need for propylene glycol in the cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and food & beverage industries is aiding the growth of the glycols market expansion.

As it is a non-toxic solvent, propylene glycol finds extensive use in pharmaceutical, food and beverage, and personal care goods. The development of the glycol market is progressing because of its wide application in numerous end-use sectors, such as aircraft de-icing, construction (HVAC systems, insulation), and packaging (PET resins). Rising demand from sectors like textiles, packaging, and growing polyester fiber production, along with the need for sustainable solutions, is generating numerous opportunities in the glycol market.
