E-Liquid Market Highlights 2020 – 2029
The e-liquid market is estimated to garner a large revenue by growing at a notable CAGR over the forecast period, i.e., 2021 – 2029. The growth of the market can be attributed to factors such as the increasing adoption of safer smoking alternatives, widening introduction of e-liquids with lesser toxicants and rising prices of conventional cigarettes. Along with these, as vaping is gaining popularity as a means of quitting smoking, the demand for e-cigarettes is expected to increase, which in turn is projected to boost market growth for e-liquids in the near future. According to the CDC, the aerosol in e-cigarettes usually contain fewer toxic chemicals when compared to the smoke of regular cigarettes. The smoke of regular cigarettes is known to have a mix of around 7000 chemicals.
The market is segmented by flavor into tobacco, menthol, fruit & candy, chocolate, and others, out of which, the tobacco segment is anticipated to hold the largest share in the e-liquid market on account of the growing demand for tobacco flavored e-liquid as it provides the experience of smoking real tobacco to smokers. Furthermore, on the basis of product type, the bottled segment is evaluated to grab the largest market share owing to the ease of storage and refilling of bottled e-liquids. However, the pre-filled segment is assessed to witness significant growth over the forecast period, which can be ascribed to the cost-effectiveness and easy disposal of pre-filled cartridges.

Additionally, according to the World Bank, Chemical industry in the U.S. accounted for 16.43% to manufacturing value-added in 2018. With the growing demand from end-users, the market for chemical products is expected to grow in future.

In the current scenario, Asia Pacific is the largest chemical producing and consuming region. China has the world’s largest chemical industry, that accounted for annual sales of approximately more than USD 1.5 trillion, or about more than one-third of global sales, in recent years. Additionally, a vast consumer base and favorable government policies have boosted investment in China’s chemical industry. Easy availability of low-cost raw material & labor as well as government subsidies and relaxed environmental norms have served as a production base for key vendors globally. On the other hand, according to the FICCI (Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce & Industry), the chemical industry in India was valued at 163 billion in 2019 and it contributed 3.4% to the global chemical industry.
