Organic pigments are referred to as synthetically-made carbon compounds. Natural pigments are extracted through animals and flowers, whereas synthetic organic pigments are extracted through petroleum compounds. They come in a range of deep colors, including rose, deep red carmine, and crimson. They are usually stronger, brighter, and more transparent than inorganic pigments, although not as light-resistant. They hold the potential to be partially soluble in several thermoplastics.

The surging demand for organic pigments in recent years can be attributed to the growing consumer preference for environment-friendly products. Further, the product is witnessing heightened demand from niche applications, such as the production of packaging and advertising leaflets and catalogs, which is expected to result in the strategic growth of the organic pigments market over the forecast period.

  • These substances are widely used in printing inks application owing to regulations and acts, including the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), FFDCA, and Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS). Even though the printing ink industry has been witnessing a constant decline in newspaper and periodical application segments due to digitalization, the demand for the same has been strongly growing in the packaging application segment.

Factors Restraining the Expansion of the Organic Pigments Market

Besides the factors bolstering the growth of the organic pigment market, the expert analysts at FMI have also identified some elements that are likely to hinder the pace of advancement in the long run. They are as follows:

  • Surging restrictions on raw materials of organic pigments are a market deterrent. Primary chemicals used in the manufacturing of organic pigments, such as toluene, benzene, naphthalene, xylene, and ethylene, are facing significant restrictions and regulations on industrial usage owing to their ill effects on human health.
  • Further, the growing dependence on the Asia Pacific to offer a global supply of the raw materials used in the manufacturing of organic pigments may also stall the market growth over the forecast period.
