Growth Drivers

Growing Industrialization  

Grease's low viscosity attributes make it beneficial for bushings, bearing axles and moving parts of machinery and automobiles. Further, it has the ability to retain its properties at any temperature. It is useful in commercial and manufacturing industry owing to its properties such as contamination prevention, protection against rust and corrosion and withstanding high & low temperature. The product is popularly used across various industries such as automobile, railway, construction, pharmaceutical, food & beverage, mining and numerous others. Increasing product application scope in industries such as wind turbines is projected to fuel the demand for low viscosity lubricating oils in the coming years. Demand for low viscosity fluids in automobile industry shall extend the market opportunities over the forecast period.

Rise in Shipbuilding Business

A key factor driving the growth of the market is the growing shipbuilding business. The marine sector is one of the major end user of the global grease market. The shipbuilding business in the marine industry consumes the highest volume of grease. With the growing shipbuilding business, the inflow of global foreign direct investment (FDI), seaborne trade and business expansions of multinational companies has triggered the rapid market growth. Therefore, a high increase in the production of ships and growing repair and maintenance activities of old ships and boats will act as a driving factor for the growth of the global grease market.

Rising popularity of bio-based grease

The eco-friendly products are gaining popularity across numerous industries and the grease market is no exception to it. The emergence and application of bio-based grease, which is produced from renewable feedstock including plant-based oil and sugar through ultrafiltration, fermentation, and crystallization techniques is increasing. Moreover, the use of eco-friendly grease helps in maintaining the ecological balance in the environment, as it reduces Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and the toxicity of gases from nearby industries. Therefore, the growing popularity of bio based grease products will derive the market growth.

Restraints

Rise in crude oil prices

Crude oil prices have been fluctuating for the past many years and are likely to be volatile during the forecast period as well. The increase in price of base oil will also affect the price of grease which can negatively affect consumption in the industry. This, in turn, may obstruct the growth of global grease market.
