Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on the global Antifreeze Market

The demand for antifreeze was mainly driven by industries, such as automotive, industrial heating, energy manufacturing, and construction equipment, before the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has affected economies and industries in various countries due to lockdowns, travel bans, and business shutdowns.

In 2020, various industries had to slow down their operations due to supply chain disruptions caused by the shutdown of national and international borders upon the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. The automotive industry is one of the major end-users of antifreeze. China leads the automotive industry both in terms of production and consumption. In the automotive industry, consumer demand has declined dramatically. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the construction and infrastructure sectors globally.

However, with the uplift of COVID-19 guidelines, the demand for antifreeze is increasing in various sectors, including the automotive sector. Various industries are resuming their operations, including the automotive industry. This, in turn, is creating demand for antifreeze.

Market Insights

Increasing Vehicle Production and Aftermarket for Antifreeze and Engine Coolants

In the automotive industry, antifreeze is used in the internal combustion of liquid-cooled engines that can adjust the freezing and boiling points. The automotive sector has witnessed tremendous growth in the last decade. The growth of the automotive industry in various economies such as the UK, Germany, France, China, India, and Italy has mainly driven the global antifreeze market growth. According to the Organisation Internationale des Constructeurs d'Automobiles (OICA), the number of commercial and passenger cars produced in American countries increased from ~16.2 million to ~20 million from 2010 to 2019, at a rate of more than 23%. Further, China contributes significantly to the global automotive market. Companies operating in the automotive market are also investing heavily in the automobile manufacturing sector.

Coolant Type Insights

Based on coolant type, the global antifreeze market has been segmented into ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, and glycerin & others.The global market share for the ethylene glycol segment was largest in 2021. Ethylene glycol is an odorless, colorless, viscous liquid with superior heat transfer properties. It is poisonous and needs to be handled cautiously to avoid human or animal exposure. Ethylene glycol helps to prevent coolant liquid from freezing within the radiator by lowering its freezing temperature, lubricating the water pump, and inhibiting corrosion. It also finds application as a coolant to reduce overheating car engines in the summer.

Technology Insights

Based on technology, the global antifreeze market has been segmented into inorganic additive technology, organic acid technology, and hybrid organic acid technology & others. The market share for the organic acid technology segment was largest in 2021.  Organic acid technology coolants are originally marketed as permanent or long-life antifreeze. Propylene glycol is used as the base in organic acid technology products. Hence, they are less harmful to pets, kids, and the environment in case of spillover.  Various organic acid technology coolant type includes nitrated organic acid technology, phosphate organic acid technology, and silicated organic acid technology.

Wacker Chemie AG, BASF SE, Chevron Corporation, Dow Inc., EXXON MOBIL CORPORATION, CCI Corporation, Old World Industries, Prestone Products Corporation, Valvoline LLC, and Shell plc are some of the major players operating in the global antifreeze market.  Players operating in the global market are constantly focusing on strategies, such as investments in research and development activities and new product launches.
