Global Organobromine Market by Application (Flame Retardants, Biocide Application and Others), by Geography (North America, Asia-Pacific, Europe, Rest of the World) – Analysis & Forecast to 2019

The global organobromine market, along with its end products, has witnessed significant growth over the past few years; and this growth is estimated to increase in the coming years. Organobromine is a brominated organic compound. Organobromines compounds such as Tetrabromobisphenol-A, Hexabromocyclododecane, and bromodiphenyl ethers are used as flame retardants in many industries. Ethylene and methyl bromides are used as fumigants in the agriculture industry. Bromoform and dibromodimethylhydantoin organobromine biocides are used in water treatment applications. These biocides prevent the growth of algae, bacteria, and other microorganisms in water.

The rising demand for flame retardants due to stringent fire safety regulations; the growing demand from the electronics and automotive industries; and the expanding ship-building industries, among others, are some of the key factors driving the growth of the global organobromine market. The consumption of flame retardants is increasing across the globe. Furthermore, drugs containing organobromine ingredients are used for treating pneumonia and cocaine addiction. Flame retardants are the largest application of organobromine. These applications are also responsible for the growth of the global organobromine market.

Considerable amount of investments have been made by various market players to serve the end-user applications industry in the near future. The Asia-Pacific region in the organobromine market accounted for about 45.0% share of the total market revenues in 2014. This can be attributed to the increasing consumption of organobromine compounds in automotive, water treatment, electronics, and fine chemicals industries.
