The market for LAB is 3.2 million tons/year and is forecast to grow 2.5
percent annually to 2025. Over the last ten years, LAB had been pressured
by the high cost of petroleum and competing surfactants gained ground in
its markets. Valued at $6.3 billion in 2013, the largest component in the
market is demand in Asia which accounts for 50 percent of usage. Asia is
growing at 3.2 percent annually. These are among the findings of Detergent
Alkylates - World Markets to 2025. The comprehensive study was published
in July 2015 and is the sixth in a series of multiclient studies on LAB by
Colin A. Houston & Associates since the mid-1980s.
How to Subscribe22
The report compares the economics of five different plant configurations in
two countries: the U.S. and India. Integrated and non-integrated economics
are compared as well as the HF and Detal-Plus® catalyst systems.
For over 50 years, LAB has been the most widely used surfactant intermediate.
The LAB market has continued to grow over the last decade, led by Asia.
Competing surfactants have lost economic advantage as LAB prices have
corrected with oil prices since the end of 2014. Asian consumption is
forecast to grow 3.2 percent annually through 2025. A capacity buildup
in China has driven a surplus that is being exported to a wide number of
areas.
The report details trade movements from producer countries to customer
markets in more than 50 different countries. Ex-regional trade has grown
from 18 percent of production in 2006 to 22 percent in 2013, notably from
the Middle East and West Europe. China’s ex-regional trade has also grown
over the period.

Detergent Alkylates - World Markets to 2025 includes
a detailed global analysis of LAB and its sulfonated
derivatives by region. The study reports on consumption
and trends, as well as competing materials. It evaluates
historical, current and future supplies (based on current
announcements) in each region and documents trade by
country for 2013.
Growth of LAB use is supported by increased living
standards and a corresponding rise in per capita
detergent consumption in the developing areas. In
addition, the ongoing conversions from branched alkylates
and soap use support demand. Spare LAB represents
an opportunity for the second and third tier detergent
producers to expand their business and erode the use of
soap-based products. New product types that favor LABbased formulations have given a temporary boost in the
North American market.
The study provides a full view of all facets of the detergent
alkylate industry: raw material supplies and requirements,
producers, regional markets, surfactant consumption,
environmental issues, and sulfonation capacities. It
provides the outlook for LAB and derivatives on a regional
and global basis in the context of formulation issues,
consumer preference, competition with other surfactants,
demographics, and environmental and customer-related
issues.
Other developments in the evolution of detergent
ingredients represent challenges for LAB usage. For
one, increased reliance on enzymes in cleaning systems
is reducing demand for surfactants. The recent wave of
new detergent alcohol capacity has resulted, at times,
in a surplus of more than a million tons. Fortunately
these new supplies have limited ability to replace LAB’s
key applications. Competition between the primary
surfactants is described in a chapter on End Markets.
The subscription price for this study is $24,500. The
following pages contain the Table of Contents and other
details. Please contact us for further details, or if you
have any questions.
The recent high priced plateau of crude oil left the
economics of LAB production vulnerable to ethylene- and
vegetable oil-based products. However, the volatility of
vegetable-based oils has limited the effect on the LAB
industry during the past five years. With oleo-based
surfactants no longer undercutting the petroleum-derived
economics, the outlook for LAB use has improved.
Technical developments have provided some new
opportunities for LAB. The development of novel feedstocks
could reposition LAB as a surfactant intermediate derived
from renewable sources. The opportunity of modified LAB
should not be overlooked, especially as the technology
comes off patent and the practice of low temperature
washing becomes more widespread.

Detergent Alkylates - World Markets to 2025
DESCRIPTION OF THE STUDY
Detergent Alkylates - World Markets to 2025 is a
comprehensive study which details the production,
capacity, trade and supply/demand balance by region for
LAB. Major factors affecting the outlook are examined
including
raw
material
requirements,
surfactant
consumption trends, novel technological developments,
production costs, prices, sulfonation capacity, and
environmental issues, among others.
Historical and
forecast consumption of LABS is reviewed in depth
for the 2005-2025 period by application and end use,
incorporating an understanding of the formulation trends,
competition with alcohol-based surfactants, consumer
preferences and customer-oriented requirements.
A brief discussion of each of the main chapters is
provided below.

on n-paraffin feedstock. Declining TnP levels in kerosene
have effectively reduced the output at several n-paraffin
units and some other locations face kerosene shortages.
Merchant internal and alpha-olefin use remains an
important alternative for producing LAB, and provides the
opportunity for some producers to increase incremental
production.

Sulfonates
This chapter covers sulfonation technology, a detailed
listing of producers, and an evaluation of the LABS
markets. LABS consumption is analyzed over the 20052025 period for each major region.
Consumption of
LABS is segmented by end-use market (household, I&I,
industrial), over the 2005-2025 period. Each regional
analysis encompasses a discussion of end-use markets
and customers in which demographics, formulations,
environmental issues and customer-related issues are
evaluated.
