According to Facts and Factors, the global chloromethane market size was worth USD 4,925.30 million in 2021 and is estimated to grow to USD 6,562.74 million by 2028, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 4.90% over the forecast period. The report analyzes the chloromethane market's drivers, restraints/challenges, and their effect on the demands during the projection period. In addition, the report explores emerging opportunities in the chloromethane market.
Chloromethane is a chemical substance that belongs to the haloalkanes class of natural compounds. It is a toxic gas that is very flammable and has a sweet odor. Although there is enough chloromethane in nature, it can also be synthesized. Chloromethane is generally produced by the activity of sunlight on biomass and chlorine present in the ocean structure. Chloromethane was initially used as a refrigerant. Because of its toxicity, chloromethane should not be used for personal use. Products containing chloromethanes include methylene chloride, methyl chloride, carbon tetrachloride, and chloroform.

The increased demand for chemical industries will impact the global chloromethanes market's expansion rate. The primary factors driving market expansion are the rising demand for silicone elastomers in different end-use industries such as construction, electronics, & automotive and the rising demand for tire replacements from emerging economies. Factors such as expanding urbanization and the increased usage of silicone in personal & medical applications are also driving the chloromethanes market. Furthermore, increased passenger vehicle sales and rising affordability will boost the chloromethanes market's growth rate. Furthermore, the increased demand for silicone polymers in the automotive industry due to lightweight vehicles would be a major driver affecting the growth of the chloromethanes market. Furthermore, a growing emphasis on R&D activities aimed at creating innovative processes for producing chloromethanes would generate favorable prospects for the growth of the chloromethanes market. Furthermore, rising consumer demand for perishable foods, technological advancements, and international trade in fresh food goods would present an attractive potential for market expansion.
The global chloromethane market is segregated based on product, application, end-user, and region. Based on product, the market is divided into methylene chloride, methyl chloride, carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, and others. Among these, the methylene chloride segment led the market in 2021 and is expected to maintain its dominance throughout the forecast period. Based on the application, the market is divided into refrigerants, industrial solvent, silicone polymers, laboratory chemicals, chemical intermediates, methylating & chlorinating agents, propellants & blowing agents, catalyst carriers, herbicides, local anesthetic, adhesives & sealants, and others. Among these, the silicone polymers segment led the market in 2021 and is expected to maintain its dominance throughout the forecast period. Based on the end-user, the market is divided into pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, textile, automotive, construction, paints & coatings, personal care products, plastics & rubber, and others. Among these, the pharmaceuticals segment led the market in 2021 and is expected to maintain its dominance throughout the forecast period.
The global chloromethane market is divided into geographic regions: North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East, and Africa. In 2021, the Asia Pacific region led the chloromethane market. It is expected to be the largest regional market over the projection period. China's massive shale gas resources and wide-ranging feedstock availability are projected to increase the product's production. These factors have also significantly increased the region's chemical manufacturing. Major corporations now focus on high-opportunity economies such as China and India, where trained labor and raw resources are more easily accessible at lower prices. As a result, these factors likely boost market expansion in the Asia-Pacific region.
