Global Styrene Market Research Report 2021

Styrene, also known by the names of “phenylethene”, “vinyl benzene” or “ethenylbenzene”, is a colorless oily organic compound and a derivative of benzene. Styrene evaporates easily and serves as a precursor to polystyrene and several other copolymers. It occurs naturally in small quantities in different foods and plants and is also found in coal tar.
The global demand for styrene has been witnessing high growth on account of the emerging packaging and construction industry which has led to increasing demand for infrastructure facilities and consumer goods, especially in emerging regions such as Asia Pacific. The overall global production of styrene has been relocating to emerging economies, while developed industrialized regions such as Western Europe and the U.S. have considerably reduced their production capacities over the past few years. This trend occurred on account of the previous excessive increase in production at a time when the global demand for styrene rose at less dynamic rates or even declined during the global recession in 2008 - 09. Recent jump in benzene prices have led to various styrene manufacturers increasing the cost of their styrene products. Moreover, the collision of seasonally strong demand and low inventories with reduced styrene supply from propylene oxide/styrene monomer (POSM) facilities has further propelled styrene prices.
