San Francisco, 26 December 2018, The
estimated market potential for FDCA is expected to reach USD
498.2 million by 2020, according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc.
Avantium’s FDCA production facility is expected to come online by in 2016 - 17
with annual capacity reaching 50 kilo tons by 2017. FDCA is expected to have
great potential as a replacement to other petroleum based chemicals such as
adipic acid, terephthalic acid and bisphenol A. The addressable market for FDCA
as of 2013 was in excess of 50 million tons with PET and PBT being the largest
applications.
The market potential for FDCA is expected
to reach 498.15 kilo tons by 2020, growing at a exponential CAGR of 367.0% from
2014 to 2020, owing to the projected commercial production of FDCA by Avantium
in 2016 using bio feed stock. The market for FDCA in 2013 was 40 tons with
production on order basis primarily for scientific applications.

Further Key findings from the study suggest:
·
Post commercialization,
PET is expected to be the largest application segment for FDCA accounting for
64% of the global market in 2020. The growing demand for packaging material
coupled with the need for bio based products is expected to greatly boost the
demand for FDCA.
·
Polyamides are expected
to be the second largest application segment in 2020 with a potential market
for 80,000 tons. FDCA has the potential to replace adipic acid and its bio
based alternative considering economic production by 2020.
·
A limited number of
companies manufactured and supplied FDCA as of 2013 and primarily for
scientific purpose. Avantium is expected to begin construction of its first
commercial FDCA plant with 50 kilo ton capacity in 2015 and is expected to
begin production by 2017.
·
Avantium has been a key
participant inFDCA technology development, with partnerships and alliances with
key application clients including The Coca-Cola Company, Danone, Teijin, Solvay
and Rhodia.
