The complete version of the Report will include the impact of the COVID-19, and anticipated change on the future outlook of the industry, by taking into the account the political, economic, social, and technological parameters.
Global bio-lubricants market projected to propelling due to growing demand for bio-lubricants in the transportation & manufacturing industries
The global bio-lubricants market size value at USD 2.02 billion in 2019 and projected to reach USD 2.66 billion by 2027, registering a CAGR of 3.43%, during the forecast period, 2020-2027. The primary factors are the growing consumer awareness regarding the environment and depleting crude oil reserves in the developed regions. Further, the favorable regulatory framework in developed countries is anticipated to encourage the production & consumption of bio-based lubricants. Additionally, the eco-friendly nature and rapid degradability of bio-lubricants and stringent regulations, especially for applications such as those in marine, forestry, agriculture, among others, will positively impact the growth of the market.
The continued availability of high-quality bio-based base oils such as synthetic esters has increased the demand and performance of bio-based lubricants. These oils meet or exceed the prescribed standards for biodegradability, toxicity, and bioaccumulation, ensuring sustainability. Moreover, the increased consumer awareness of environmental protection and strict government regulation will augment the global bio-lubricants market across the globe. Also, the increasing oil prices and stringent environmental regulations on conventional lubricants across the world will spur the demand for bio-lubricants. Furthermore, the introduction of legislation and the surge in government spending on R&D and product innovation are estimated to boom the growth of the global bio-lubricants industry in the forecast span. With the advent of oleochemicals, the performance factors of most important synthetic esters have overcome. Synthetic esters help improve performance and meet and exceed the requirements of high-risk applications.
