The global flame retardant market size was USD 6.72 Billion in 2021 and is expected to register a revenue CAGR of 5.1% during the forecast period, according to latest analysis by Emergen Research. Flame retardants market revenue growth is driven by factors such as rising fire safety laws, expansion of end-use sectors, rising demand from the electronics industry, and increased demand from the construction sector.
Flame retardants are regularly applied or sprayed on the following products: foam, upholstery, and mattresses, building and construction materials (electrical wires and cables), and insulation materials (polystyrene and polyurethane insulation foam). Many flame retardant products have been removed from the market or are no longer manufactured.
However, because it does not decay rapidly, it can be used reliably in the environment for many years. They can also bioaccumulate or accumulate over time in humans and animals. Humans are exposed to flame retardants in a variety of ways, including in their diet and consumer items in the home, car, and office.The report is formulated through extensive primary and secondary research and is curated with an intent to offer the readers and businesses a competitive edge over other players in the industry. The report sheds light on the minute details of the flame retardant industry pertaining to growth factors, opportunities and lucrative business prospects, regions showing promising growth, and forecast estimation till 2027. The report assesses the historical data and current scenario to offer accurate estimations of the flame retardant market in the coming years.

The use of flame retardants has given an important layer of fire protection, saving lives and property. These chemicals are utilized to provide vital fire safety protection in electrical devices. One of the most significant advantages of flame retardants in product development is that they can prevent the inadvertent ignition of electrical equipment and, if ignition does occur, it decreases the combustion rate. They are chemically linked to the circuit boards of consumer electronics, preventing any chemicals from leaching into the environment or posing health risks to users. The purpose of circuit boards is to transfer electrical current; hence proponents of flame retardants assert that fire protection is an apparent requirement. The plastic shells that wrap circuitry and electronics also contain flame retardants, with possibly more severe health effects. They are introduced to plastics at the end of the production process without bonding or reacting with the finished material, making it much easier for them to leak into the environment.
Some Key Highlights From the Report
- Brominated flame retardant segment accounted for largest revenue share in 2021. Brominated Flame Retardants (BFRs) are synthetic chemical mixtures that are added to a variety of products, including those designed for industrial use, to make them less flammable. Polymers, textiles, and electronic equipment are common applications. By assuring the duration of flames, brominated flame retardants serve a vital role in lowering the impact on people, property, and the environment.
- PVC segment accounted for a moderate revenue share in 2021. Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) is a commonly used polymer, particularly in electrical and communication cables as an insulating covering and in domestic applications such as window panes, doors, and house sidings. As a result of its flame-retardant properties, PVC inhibits both the initiation and spreading of fire. Fire protection is provided not only by the presence of chlorine inside the polymer matrix but also by the creation of a carbonized product as a result of the recent evolution of hydrogen chloride. It is hypothesized that a carbonized product has conjugated & cross-linked structures that safeguard the polymer main chain during combustion. As flame retardants for PVC, chemical substances such as coordination compounds, metal alloys, and inorganic and organic chemicals are recommended.
- Automotive & transportation segment accounted for a significant revenue share in 2021. Flame retardants are used in the automotive industry for functional and structural thermoplastic engineering components found under the hood. They play an important role in heat insulation in mass transit, trucks, marine industry, and aviation. The most frequent materials used for this purpose are stiff polyurethane foams, crosslinked polyolefins, and crosslinked plasticized PVC and nitrile rubber mixtures. It is also important to note the use of plasticized PVC-coated fabric to manufacture automobile and boat covers.
- Market in Europe accounted for moderate revenue share in 2021. Increasing production of consumer electrical and electronic goods, rise in safety regulations in building construction, and increase in standard of living in eastern European countries are expected to propel the need for flame retardants. In the European construction and engineering business, flame retardants are predominantly utilized for structural insulation.
