Covid-19 Impact Analysis

COVID 19 was a health adversity pandemic that was alerting humans across the globe about being predictable on what they are using or consuming. As benzyl chloride has a restraint or challenge of high concentration in some products, which results in toxic outcomes on humans, people started to repel themselves from using the Benzyl Chloride products. The key players suddenly experienced a drop in sales, negatively impacting the market. 

The manpower was also down for most of the companies across various regions, which affected the production pace of demanding products. Hence, the business within that time span was paused with negative values. But soon after 2021 hits the calendar, the Benzyl Chloride market started picking up from where it left. The toxic effects were reduced, and the customers were convinced that the cosmetics and other products within the market were safe for their consumption, with test reports and evidence as support. 

Market Dynamics

Market Key Drivers Benzyl alcohol is one of the most widely used benzyl chloride applications; it is used in pharmaceutical applications, natural health products, cosmetics, flavor products, textile dyes, solvents, etc. Hence, this concludes that the demand for benzyl chloride gradually increases over time for the preparation of benzyl alcohol and its application for diverse purposes. Hence, this acts as a vital market driver for the industry to thrive. Market ChallengesThe challenge that the global benzyl chloride market is facing substantially is the regulations that are being imposed upon the use of benzyl chloride. It is because benzyl chloride is considered a carcinogenic product. The key players are studying the country-wise regulations in order to modify or improvise the production of benzyl chloride products for the targeted market. Market OpportunitiesThe use of benzyl chloride products is escalated over the course of time as a chemical intermediate. The production of benzyl quaternary ammonium compounds is also in demand, and the key players are recording peak requests for rapid supplies to meet the demand requests. Hence, this is one crucial opportunity for the market to pick up the pace and record more sales over the present forecast years. Hence, this shall help the market surpass the predicted benzyl chloride market size. Market RestraintsMedical experts across various regions have tested the use of benzyl chloride to have acted as a health hazard in association with that product. Therefore, most of the products are banned for use or are regulated for more dilution in order to make them safe for humans to use as cosmetics, paints or other such applications. COVID did slow down the manufacturing process, and the workforce is yet to restore completely. Most of the key players are still actively hiring a proficient workforce to get back to their usual place of production. The posh regions and cities within them have fully functional key players with a suitable workforce.

Cumulative Evaluation Of The Market 

Benzyl Chloride is also on the Right to Know Hazardous Substances list. It is because there is a citation by big departments such as ACGIH, DOT, OSHA, NFPA, EPA, IRIS, IARC, DEP and others for humans to be aware of what amount of benzyl chloride is safe for their consumption or use in any means. The chemical is also listed on the Special Health Hazard Substance List. The key players are working upon imposing the powerful effects of benzyl chloride in cosmetics and other such applications at permissible levels. It is to ensure that no health adversity gets triggered due to it.
