Vietnam 1,4 Butanediol Market to Grow with a CAGR of 7.45% through 2030

Growing automotive production in Vietnam, combined with the rise in industrial activities is expected to drive the Vietnam 1,4 Butanediol Market growth in the forecast period, 2026-2030.

According to TechSci Research report, “Vietnam 1,4 Butanediol Market –– By Region, Competition, Forecast and Opportunities, 2030F”, the Vietnam 1,4 Butanediol Market stood at USD 66.45 Million in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 102.51 Million by 2030 with a CAGR of 7.45% during the forecast period.

The Vietnam 1,4 Butanediol (BDO) market is experiencing a dynamic and evolving landscape, driven by a combination of industrial growth, increased demand for high-performance materials, and a rising focus on sustainability. 1,4 Butanediol is a versatile chemical compound with a wide range of applications, including in the production of plastics, textiles, automotive parts, electronics, and pharmaceuticals. Vietnam, as one of the fastest-growing economies in Southeast Asia, has seen a steady increase in the demand for 1,4 Butanediol due to the expansion of key industries such as automotive, textiles, electronics, and chemicals.

The market’s growth is significantly influenced by the demand for derivatives of 1,4 Butanediol, particularly in the production of Polyurethanes (PU), Tetrahydrofuran (THF), Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT), and Gamma-Butyrolactone (GBL). Polyurethanes, which are derived from 1,4 Butanediol, are heavily used in the automotive industry for the production of lightweight, durable, and energy-efficient parts. As the automotive sector in Vietnam continues to expand, particularly with the growing focus on electric vehicles (EVs) and fuel-efficient designs, the demand for polyurethanes is expected to increase. This, in turn, is driving the need for 1,4 Butanediol, especially in producing automotive components like seating, insulation, and body panels.

The textile industry is another key driver of the Vietnam 1,4 Butanediol market. Vietnam is one of the largest textile and garment exporters in the world, and the demand for high-quality fabrics continues to rise. 1,4 Butanediol is used in the production of spandex, a highly elastic material essential for the production of activewear, sportswear, and other stretch fabrics. The rising global demand for comfortable, functional, and performance-driven apparel is boosting the need for 1,4 Butanediol in the textile sector. The growing emphasis on sustainable and eco-friendly textiles further enhances the demand for bio-based 1,4 Butanediol, produced from renewable feedstocks, aligning with global trends towards sustainable fashion.

As Vietnam’s electronics industry grows, the demand for advanced materials like 1,4 Butanediol is also rising. 1,4 Butanediol is utilized in the production of components such as plasticizers and coatings, which are essential in consumer electronics like smartphones, computers, and wearables. The electronics market in Vietnam has expanded rapidly, with the country becoming a manufacturing hub for global tech giants. This growing demand for consumer electronics, along with the drive for smaller, more flexible devices, is expected to boost the demand for 1,4 Butanediol-based components.

Vietnam’s strategic location in Southeast Asia and its active participation in global trade agreements, such as the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) and the EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA), have further stimulated market growth. These agreements open up new avenues for Vietnamese manufacturers to export 1,4 Butanediol-derived products to international markets, strengthening the country’s position in the global supply chain. The presence of well-established shipping ports in Southern Vietnam, particularly around Ho Chi Minh City, has solidified the region’s role as a key export hub for 1,4 Butanediol. However, the Vietnam 1,4 Butanediol market faces several challenges that may impact its growth. One of the most significant is the country’s dependence on imported raw materials, particularly petrochemical feedstocks. Vietnam’s chemical industry still relies heavily on imported raw materials for the production of 1,4 Butanediol, and fluctuations in global raw material prices, particularly crude oil, can lead to price volatility and supply chain disruptions. This reliance on imports not only increases production costs but also exposes the market to global supply chain risks.

The Vietnam 1,4 Butanediol Market is segmented into application, regional distribution, and company.

Based on application, Tetrahydrofuran (THF) is the second most dominating derivative of 1,4 Butanediol (BDO) in the Vietnam 1,4 Butanediol market. THF, a highly versatile solvent and intermediate, plays a significant role in various industries such as chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and polymers, driving the demand for 1,4 Butanediol in the country. Vietnam, with its growing industrial base and expanding chemical sector, has seen increasing demand for THF, which is produced primarily from 1,4 Butanediol. The demand for THF in Vietnam is particularly influenced by its applications in the production of synthetic polymers, coatings, and as a solvent in chemical reactions.

In the chemical industry, THF is used as a solvent in the production of coatings, adhesives, and paints, which are essential to industries like construction, automotive, and electronics. Vietnam’s construction industry, in particular, has experienced significant growth, and with it, the demand for coatings and adhesives has surged. THF’s ability to dissolve a wide range of substances and its low toxicity make it an attractive option for these applications. As the country’s infrastructure development continues to expand, the use of THF in construction materials and coatings is expected to rise, thus bolstering the demand for 1,4 Butanediol as a precursor. THF is crucial in the production of polyurethane, which is used in a variety of applications, including automotive parts, insulation, and textiles. As the automotive and textile industries continue to thrive in Vietnam, the need for THF, and consequently 1,4 Butanediol, grows. Vietnam’s expanding automotive market, particularly with a shift toward electric vehicles (EVs), is driving the demand for lighter, more efficient materials like polyurethane, which are derived from THF.

 

Based on region, Northern Vietnam is the second most dominant region in the Vietnam 1,4 Butanediol market, following Southern Vietnam, which is the primary hub for industrial activities. Northern Vietnam, with its economic growth and strategic positioning, plays a crucial role in the market dynamics, although it is not as dominant as the South. The key driver of the region's position in the 1,4 Butanediol market lies in its growing industrial base, particularly in sectors such as chemicals, textiles, and automotive, which are increasingly driving demand for 1,4 Butanediol and its derivatives. Hanoi, the capital, and nearby provinces like Hai Phong and Quang Ninh are home to several industrial zones focused on chemical production, manufacturing, and processing. While the southern region has a more extensive chemical manufacturing infrastructure, Northern Vietnam has seen increasing investments in the chemical sector, with local and international companies setting up production facilities. These manufacturing units are increasingly relying on 1,4 Butanediol for producing Polyurethanes (PU), Tetrahydrofuran (THF), and other derivatives used in various products, from automotive components to textiles. The region's expanding industrial capacity supports growing demand for 1,4 Butanediol, making Northern Vietnam an important player in the market.
