North America 1-hexene Market is Expected to Reach 482 Thousand MT in February 6, 2015 | Page 3

Europe 1-hexene Market Despite the economic downturns in the region, the European chemical industry is still in a strong position. More than half of the chemical sales in Europe are that of petrochemicals and polymers, experiencing a continuous rise of share in sales among all chemicals. Europe is the third-largest market for 1-hexene, with a major contribution from Germany. The European 1-hexene market has matured, and therefore, the growth in future is expected to be lower than that seen in the past. The key countries in the region include Germany, France, Italy, and the U.K., together accounting for a major share of the European 1-hexene market, in terms of volume, in 2013. Europe’s 1-hexene demand is projected to reach 180 thousand MT by 2018. The European region is expected to experience slow growth in the next five years, owing to the mature nature of the market and the prevalent impacts of the global meltdown of 2008. http://www.micromarketmonitor.com/market/europe-1-hexene-1348842840.html Middle East 1-hexene Market The Middle East is one of the important regions in terms of production and consumption of 1hexene. The region is characterized by continuous technical innovations in various segments of the 1-hexene industry, owing to the presence of a few top regional players. The Middle East & Africa 1-hexene demand is projected to reach 195 thousand MT by 2018. Therefore, the Middle East is emerging as a major producer of polyethylene and is subsequently expected to become a major exporter of polyethylene, which in turn would increase the overall demand of 1-hexene in the market. The Middle East accounted for a market share of 12.4% of the total demand generated by the 1-hexene demand in 2013. The major players in the region include Saudi Basic Industries Corporation (Saudi Arabia), and Qatar Chemical Company Ltd. (Qatar). http://www.micromarketmonitor.com/market/middle-east-1-hexene-3622277636.html About Micro Market Monitor: Micro Market Monitor identifies and attends to various unmet needs of different industrial verticals, which include value chain impact analysis.
