The global dyes and pigments market size reached USD 39.0 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 52.0 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 3.26% during 2025-2033. Widespread product utilization across the textile, construction, and automotive sectors, the rising demand for organic and natural product variants due to escalating environmental concerns among consumers, and ongoing technological advancements represent some of the key factors driving the market growth.
Escalating Product Demand in Paints and Coatings
The increasing application of dyes and pigments in the expanding paint and coating industry is one of the most significant trends driving the market growth. Moreover, the growing number of construction and renovation projects is also providing a positive outlook to the overall market. For instance, according to the US Census Bureau, United States spending on private construction grew in 2021, which was US$ 1,245.40 Billion, and in 2020, it was US$ 1,107.90 Billion. Furthermore, the government authorities of various nations are also taking initiatives to facilitate development in residential and infrastructure projects, which in turn, is catalyzing the dyes and pigments market demand. For instance, under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana, the Indian government sanctioned the construction of 3.61 lakh homes in November 2021. In addition, with the clearance of the new housing units, 1.14 crore homes have already been approved for the program. Besides the construction sector, the bolstering utilization of paints and coatings in the growing automotive industry is further bolstering the market growth. For instance, India's passenger vehicle wholesales reached a new high of 42,18,746 units in the 2023-24 financial year, an 8.4% increase from the previous year. Similarly, the overall commercial vehicle sales increased from 7,16,566 to 9,62,468 units, hence driving the dyes and pigments market revenue in the forecast period.
Increasing Preference for Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Dyes and Pigments
Rising environmental concerns and regulations are driving the market for eco-friendly and sustainable dyes and pigments. Furthermore, numerous consumers are increasingly demanding products that are produced using environmentally friendly processes and materials. This, in turn, is prompting the customers to launch bio-based and natural dyes and pigments. For instance, in October 2021, Clariant, one of the world's leading providers of superior organic pigments and dyes, expanded its contribution to sustainability with the launch of its new product line, Licosperse, eco-friendly pigment preparations for polish applications. These pigments are produced with non-toxic raw materials, are non-dusting, and are heavy metal- and resin-free. Similarly, in October 2023, Vipul Organics Limited, a specialty chemicals company specializing in pigments and dyes for the textile industry, achieved a significant milestone by receiving the prestigious OEKO-TEX ECO PASSPORT certification. This recognition marked the company's complete range of Pigment Dispersions and Reactive Dyes complaint with ZDHC (Zero Discharge of Hazardous Chemicals) Level 3 standards. The introduction of eco-friendly pigments and dyes is anticipated to propel the dyes and pigments market share in the coming years.
Growing Product Utilization in the Textile Industry
The escalating utilization of dyes and pigments in the expanding textile industry to impart color to various types of textiles, including natural fibers like cotton, wool, silk, and linen, as well as synthetic fibers such as polyester, nylon, and acrylic, is significantly catalyzing the growth of the market. Furthermore, prominent growth in the textile industry is offering lucrative growth opportunities to the dyes and pigments market. For instance, the textile industry of China grew steadily during the first nine months of 2021, with collective profits worth CNY 171.1 billion (approximately US$ 26.80 Billion), a 31.7% increase year-on-year, according to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT). Similarly, according to the IBEF, in India, textiles and apparel exports, including handicrafts, totaled US$ 44.4 Billion in 2022, a 41% increase YoY, and the exports of readymade garments, including cotton accessories, stood at US$ 6.19 Billion in the same year. Additionally, in February 2021, the Indian government announced the setting up of seven mega textile parks in the next three years. The government has also decided to rationalize the duties on raw material inputs to manmade textiles by reducing the customs duty rate on caprolactam, nylon chips, nylon fiber, and yarn to 5%. Such initiatives in the textile industry are expected to positively impact the dyes and pigments market outlook over the forecasted period.
Pigments represented the largest segment
The dyes and pigments market report has provided a detailed breakup and analysis of the dyes and pigments market based on the product type. This includes dyes (reactive, disperse, direct, sulfur, vat, azo, and other dyes) and pigments (organic and inorganic). According to the report, pigments represented the largest segment.
The growth of the pigments segment can be attributed to the rising demand for high-performance pigments (HPP) and the widespread product utilization across the textiles, construction, paints, coatings, and plastics industries. Besides this, the shifting preference for organic pigments due to escalating consumer concerns regarding the environment is creating a positive outlook for market growth.
Paints and coatings accounted for the largest market share
The growth of this segment can be attributed to the product demand in construction and infrastructure development, especially across developing countries. Moreover, the expanding construction sector, along with the initiatives undertaken by the government authorities and private builders of various nations to cater to the rising need for residential units, is also offering lucrative growth opportunities to the overall market. For instance, Saudi Arabia's housing demand is expected to rise by more than 50% by 2030, reaching 153,000 dwellings from 99,600 in 2021. To reach a housing stock of 4.96 million houses by 2030, the Kingdom will need to build approximately 1.2 million new homes over the next decade. Besides this, the dyes and pigments market forecast by IMARC indicates that the increasing use of high-performance paints and coatings across the furniture and automotive sectors, wherein they are used to protect structures from external damages, is strengthening the market growth.
Asia Pacific accounted for the largest market share in the global market
The report has also provided a comprehensive analysis of all the major regional markets, which include North America (the United States and Canada), Europe (Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Italy, Spain, Russia, and others), Asia Pacific (China, Japan, India, South Korea, Australia, Indonesia, and others), Latin America (Brazil, Mexico, and others), and Middle East and Africa. According to the report, Asia Pacific was the largest market for dyes and pigments.
Some of the factors driving the Asia Pacific dyes and pigments market included the rising demand for fashion apparel and accessories, the expanding infrastructural development, and shifting preferences for organic and natural dyes and pigments. Furthermore, the growth of the textile industry in China and India is rapidly increasing, which is augmenting the market for dyes and pigments. For instance, the textile industry of China grew steadily during the first nine months of 2021, with collective profits were approximately US$ 26.80 Billion, a 31.7% increase year-on-year, according to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT). Besides this, according to dyes and pigments market statistics by IMARC, the expanding construction sector across the region and an increasing number of residential and commercial renovation projects are further catalyzing the demand for dyes and pigments. Additionally, various regional leading market players are increasingly investing in establishing new production units and expansion projects to cater to the escalating demand for dyes and pigments.
