Market Overview Flame retardants are usually used to treat potentially flammable materials such as textiles and plastics. Halogen-free flame retardants are used as a replacement for halogen-containing compounds due to their environment-friendly properties. The global halogen-free flame retardants are primarily driven by the increasing adoption of environment-friendly products due to stringent regulations pertaining to environmental protection. The limited use of halogenated flame retardants owing to the emission of corrosive smoke during combustion with the evolution of toxic gases is expected to propel the demand for halogen-free flame retardant during the review period. Plastics are widely consumed in the construction industyr due to their properties such as durability, cost-effectiveness, recyclability, and ease of installation. The increasing use of plastics in the construction industry is expected to fuel the market growth over the assessment period. The use of halogen-free flame retardants in major end-use industries such as electronics & electrical, automotive, paints, textiles, and others is likely to boost the market growth further. Moreover, plastic is also used in aircraft interiors such as decks, wings, rotor blades, and others, which is expected to fuel the demand for halogen-free flame retardant in the aerospace industry. Phosphorous, Inorganic & Nitrogen Flame Retardants Association (Pinfa) has recently launched ‘Outreach Project,’ which is intended to promote a constructive dialogue between stakeholders on a series of issues ranging from fire safety to the health and environmental footprint of flame retardants and flame retardant containing products. This may increase the demand for halogen-free flame retardants in numerous applications during the forecast period. Various manufacturers are focussing on key
