Catalyst Market Size, Share, and Growth Trends: A Comprehensive Industry Report
The global catalyst market was valued at USD 31.09 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.6% from 2024 to 2030. This projected growth is largely attributed to the increasing demand from manufacturers across the globe seeking to optimize industrial processes, enhance product yield, and achieve both cost and energy savings. Catalysts play a critical role in a wide range of applications, including petroleum refining, chemical synthesis, polymers and petrochemicals, and environmental management—sectors that are experiencing heightened activity and demand. The polymer sector, in particular, is notably diverse and includes thermosets, thermoplastics, and elastomers. Each of these segments is growing independently, and their collective expansion is expected to significantly drive the demand for catalysts over the next eight years. Polymers are witnessing increasing usage in several end-use industries, especially in the automoti...
