The Green Chemicals Market reached $105.5 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow to $188.2 billion by 2031, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of about 7.5% from 2024 to 2031.

This part of the chemical industry is gaining momentum as governments push for policies that reduce reliance on fossil fuels and cut carbon emissions. Incentives like tax breaks, subsidies, blending mandates for biofuels, and requirements for cleaner production are making green chemicals more appealing than traditional options.

One of the main challenges is production capacity. Many manufacturers rely on bio-feedstocks from agriculture, such as corn, sugarcane, and biomass. This dependence subjects them to seasonal fluctuations and geopolitical disruptions. These constraints can drive up costs and may slow the decline of green chemical prices compared to conventional chemicals.
