Chemical manufacturing is forecast to grow 17.8%

The Chemical manufacturing sector touches the lives of more people than likely any other manufacturing sector. You might not think so until you consider all of the sub-sectors of Chemical Manufacturing.

Sub-sectors sought in the chemical industry

Basic chemicals

These include organic and inorganic chemicals, plastic resins, dyes and pigments. Plastic resins, in particular, have experienced significant growth as a replacement for traditional materials in the automotive, construction, and packaging end-use markets.

Specialty chemicals

These include adhesives and sealants, water treatment chemicals, plastic additives, catalysts and coatings. These chemicals are performance-oriented and typically include customer/technical servicing as an aspect of their sales.

Agricultural chemicals

These play a crucial role in the farm economy and the food processing sector. Thanks to modern agriculture, farmers have doubled the production of world food supplies since 1960, tripled the output of foods like cooking oils and meats, and increased per capita food supplies in the developing world by 25 percent.

Pharmaceuticals

These include diagnostics, prescription drugs, vaccines, vitamins, and over-the-counter drugs for human and veterinary applications. This subsector also includes biotechnology products. Strategic investment in companies, facilities, and research and development is especially important for this subsector.

Consumer products

These include soaps, detergents, and cleaners, as well as toiletries and cosmetics. While consumer products are an established segment of the industry, technological innovation and product development are important due to short product life cycles.

Revenue for US chemicals manufacturing is forecast to grow an amazing 17.8% in 2021 and at an annual compounded rate of 8% through 2024.
