Thailand import trend for phthalic anhydride experienced significant growth from 2023 to 2024, with a growth rate of 28.43%. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for the period 2020-2024 stood at 1.81%. This robust import momentum can be attributed to increased demand from various industries, indicating a positive market stability and strong trade dynamics during the period.

By 2027, Thailand's Phthalic anhydride market is forecasted to achieve a stable growth rate of 2.90%, with China leading the Asia region, followed by India, Japan, Australia and South Korea.

The phthalic anhydride (PAN) market in Thailand was valued at USD 17.04 million in 2025 and is estimated to reach a value of USD 22.12 million with a CAGR of 4.8% over the forecast period. Increasing industrialization leading to higher product demand from downstream industries such as automotive coatings, printing Inks & dyes, resins & polymers are driving factors that are contributing towards industry growth over the forecast period 2025-2031. Additionally, high production capacity coupled with low cost manufacturing facilities makes Thailand one of the most attractive destinations for PAN producers worldwide which further helps support growth prospects within this segment over coming years
The phthalic anhydride market in Thailand is influenced by its use as a key ingredient in the production of plasticizers, coatings, and resins. The growth of the plastics and construction sectors drives the demand for products that incorporate phthalic anhydride. Major manufacturers like BASF and ExxonMobil contribute to the availability of this chemical in the market.
Environmental regulations and shifting consumer preferences challenge the phthalic anhydride market. Phthalic anhydride is used in the production of plasticizers, which have faced scrutiny due to potential health and environmental impacts. Regulatory changes and the demand for more sustainable materials drive the market toward alternative solutions.
The phthalic anhydride market experienced challenges as manufacturing activities decreased. Sectors like plastics, coatings, and textiles, which use phthalic anhydride, were impacted by the economic slowdown.
In the phthalic anhydride market, companies like Perstorp Holding AB and Shandong Hongxin Chemicals Co., Ltd. stand out. These players produce phthalic anhydride, a key chemical used in plastics and resins.

Export potential enables firms to identify high-growth global markets with greater confidence by combining advanced trade intelligence with a structured quantitative methodology. The framework analyzes emerging demand trends and country-level import patterns while integrating macroeconomic and trade datasets such as GDP and population forecasts, bilateral import–export flows, tariff structures, elasticity differentials between developed and developing economies, geographic distance, and import demand projections. Using weighted trade values from 2020–2024 as the base period to project country-to-country export potential for 2030, these inputs are operationalized through calculated drivers such as gravity model parameters, tariff impact factors, and projected GDP per-capita growth. Through an analysis of hidden potentials, demand hotspots, and market conditions that are most favorable to success, this method enables firms to focus on target countries, maximize returns, and global expansion with data, backed by accuracy.
By factoring in the projected importer demand gap that is currently unmet and could be potential opportunity, it identifies the potential for the Exporter (Country) among 190 countries, against the general trade analysis, which identifies the biggest importer or exporter.
