NEW INTERTECHPIRA MARKET REPORT

THE FUTURE OF CARBON

BLACK TO 2015 GLOBAL
MARKET FORECASTS
REPORT SUMMARY
Worldwide carbon black consumption
is currently 9 million tonnes p.a.,
expected to reach 13 million by
2015. Average global growth will
likely exceed 4% over the next fve
years, with China, India, and Central
and Eastern Europe showing much
higher demand, while capacity will
shift geographically to meet demand,
as recent Asian production numbers
show. The Future of Carbon Black
to 2015 will provide statistical data
for market size by country, region and
end-use sector, including the effects
on the auto industry of the fnancial
crisis, and the results felt by the
huge carbon black-consuming tyre
market. The report will also address
supply, technology and market drivers,
and includes fve-year forecasts for
consumption in key end-use sectors.
