Major Driver Impacting Market Growth

The emerging demand for aromatics in the petrochemical industry has contributed to the growth of the toluene market. Aromatics are petroleum-derived forms of hydrocarbons, composed primarily of carbon and hydrogen elements. Toluene is a common aromatic, used as a chemical feedstock, solvent, and fuel additive in the chemical industry. To cater to the growing demand, companies are investing in expanding their production capacity. For instance, in July 2023, the U.S. Energy Information Administration, a US-based government agency, total world petroleum consumption was about 97.26 million b/d. Therefore, increasing demand in the petrochemical industry is driving the toluene market. Therefore, the growing demand for aromatics in end-use industries is driving the toluene market.
