The story of the global toluene and the mixed xylenes markets follows a similar path of their petrochemical counterparts along the polyester fiber chain. Having recently experienced a rebound period following the global downturn in 2008, the benefits of that demand growth threaten to dissipate under rapid capacity additions. Notably, these additions have mostly occurred in the Middle East and Asia, while both North America and Western Europe have experienced some capacity rationalization. Where a need for increased capacity does exist—specifically the demand for mixed xylenes to fuel a world-scale paraxylene unit—economic incentives might fall short of operating requirements.
IHS Chemical World Toluene & Mixed Xylenes Analysis examines these short-term shifts against their longer-term context. The study examines supply, demand, production, capacity, pricing and profitability of the global toluene and mixed xylene industries over an 11-year period (five-year history, base year, five-year forecast). Clients gain single-source access to objective data and analysis for supporting their toughest investment and planning decisions.
Clients may order IHS Chemical World Toluene & Mixed Xylenes Analysis in book and CD-ROM format. Included is 12-month’s access to IHS Chemical’s online capacity and supply/demand databases, with updates to the capacity database as they occur and biannual updates to the supply/demand database.
