Emission Control Catalyst Market - Global Trends & Forecast to 2024

The Emission Control Catalysts (ECC) Market size is expected to grow from USD 21.1 billion in 2019 to USD 30.5 billion by 2024, at a CAGR of 7.7% during the forecast period. The major factors driving the market are the stringent emission standards implemented by governments across the globe and increasing aftermarket for catalytic converters.

The major players in the market include BASF Catalyst (Germany), Johnson Matthey (UK), Umicore (Belgium), Corning Incorporated (US), Tenneco (US), Clariant (Switzerland), Cataler (Japan), Heraeus (Germany), Haldor Topsoe (Denmark), Cormetech (US), IBIDEN (Japan), and INTERKAT (Germany). These players have adopted various growth strategies to expand their presence in the market further. New product launch, investment & expansion, and merger & acquisition have been the leading strategies adopted by the major players in the last five years to strengthen their competitiveness and broaden their customer base in the global ECC market.

BASF Catalyst (Germany) is the most significant player operating in the emission control catalyst market. The group has 30 manufacturing facilities worldwide and produces mobile as well as stationary emission catalysts for worldwide customers. The company has adopted new product launch and expansion strategies to broaden its product portfolio and maintain its position in the market. In December 2018, the company announced the construction of its new mobile emission catalyst production site in Shanghai, China. This expansion added 30,000 square-meters facilities which will include multiple manufacturing lines, providing a full range of emissions control technologies for heavy-duty and light-duty vehicle manufacturers.

Increasing gasoline engines to lead the growing demand for palladium metal in the ECC market.

Based on metal type, the ECC market has been segmented into four types, namely, palladium, platinum, rhodium, and others. Palladium based ECC is mainly in demand in 2018 as it has the ability to maintain acceptable performance at sustained temperature for a lifetime. Also, the metal has a high tolerance of high temperatures better than other metals. It is more widely used in gasoline-based engines than in diesel engines. As palladium is less expensive than platinum, its usage is projected to increase gradually in the market during the forecast period

APAC is the leading region in the ECC market.

APAC is the largest market for ECCs. Industrialization, growing population, and urbanization of APAC are boosting the ECC market. The major end-users of ECC in the region are light-duty vehicles (LDV), power plants, chemical plants, and motorcycles. The increasing use of ECC in passenger vehicles in the region is contributing to the growth of the automotive catalyst market. China is a key consumer of ECCs in the APAC. The demand from India and China is growing at an extensive rate because of the growing automotive base and the rapid expansion of the automotive industry in these countries. As a result, several leading players are expanding their manufacturing facilities in this region. For instance, in 2017, Johnson Matthey expanded its auto-catalyst production facility in Shanghai, China and in 2018 BASF, invests in new mobile emission catalysts production facility in China to meet customer demand.

Recent Developments

In March 2019, Johnson Matthey launched an innovative, automatically regenerating Activ DPF diesel particulate filter (DPF) system for stationary diesel engines. This will help in delivering clean energy, without depending on a filter monitoring system. This new development will help the company to meet the need of customers in the automobile industry.

In May 2019, Corning opened a new manufacturing site in China. The new Hefei facility is equipped to produce substrates and particulate filters for automotive emissions control, with initial production, focused on meeting customer orders for the company’s gasoline particulate filter (GPF) product line, Corning DuraTrap GC filters. This will help the company to meet the growing demand for ECC.

In December 2018, the BASF catalyst expanded its production capacity for mobile emission at its Pudong site in Shanghai, China. The company has expanded its production facility by more than 30,000 square-meter. This will help the company to meet the continuously rising demand for ECC.
