Ethyl Lactate is used in pharmaceutical preparations, fragrances, and food additives due to its relatively low toxicity. Ethyl Lactate is also used for many agricultural and industrial applications. It is used as an extraction solvent for the decaffeination of coffee and tea. For paints, varnishes, and lacquers ethyl lactate is used as a coating solvent.

Impact of COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has led to supply chain disruption due to the lockdown across the globe. Due to the rapid spread of coronavirus, there was a decrease in the demand for chemical intermediates. The ethyl lactate market was also impacted by this outbreak due to the stringent regulation imposed by the government. But, due to the various use of ethyl lactate in the pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors demand for ethyl lactate increased during the pandemic specially in the pharmaceutical sector. It means that chemical industry workers maintained the normal work schedules related to all chemical supply chain activities, production, and transportation of raw materials or final chemical products.

Market Dynamics

Drivers

  • Increasing utilization of ethyl lactate in the pharmaceutical sector

  • Growing utilization of ethyl lactate as an alternative to petroleum-based solvents

  • Non-carcinogenic nature of ethyl lactate

  • Wide range of applications of ethyl lactate in various industries

Ethyl lactate has properties like low vaporization and low toxicity as compared to petroleum-based solvents which drive the market for ethyl lactate significantly. Industries induce demand for ethyl lactate instead of petroleum-based solvents due to the cost efficiency of ethyl lactate which produces a lucrative opportunity for the ethyl lactate to grab the market.

Restrain

  • Harmful impact on the skin and eyes after a long-time touch with ethyl lactate

Opportunities

  • Continuously rising adoption of ethyl lactate in the cosmetics and personal care industry

Challenges

  • Fluctuation in raw material prices

The constant fluctuation in crude oil and natural gas prices has severely affected the ethyl lactate market. There is also cost-cut pressure from the consumer and end-user industry which also creates a challenge for ethyl lactate manufacturers.

Impact of Russia-Ukraine War:

The Russia and Ukraine war has posed a growing challenge for chemical plants and the ethyl lactate market. This issue has been a cause for concern as it has the potential to impact the production and supply of ethyl lactate, a key ingredient in various industrial applications. As a result, it is imperative that measures are taken to address this issue and ensure the continued smooth operation of chemical plants and the ethyl lactate market.

Impact of Recession:

Chemical Industry has faced various challenges in the previous years. From supply chain disruption due to the coronavirus pandemic to the energy crises provoked by the Russia-Ukraine war demand for chemicals and chemical intermediates is fluctuating constantly. With already weakened demand, the threat of recession is a serious issue for the chemical industry. Less demand from the sector that uses the chemicals in their manufacturing due to inflation has affected the market of the chemical industry. The world economic recession badly affected the chemical sector as the demand for products that require chemicals for their manufacturing decreased. Chemical companies face a variety of challenges in responding to recession across the industry.

An accurate research report requires proper strategizing as well as implementation. There are multiple factors involved in the completion of good and accurate research report and selecting the best methodology to compete the research is the toughest part. Since the research reports we provide play a crucial role in any company’s decision-making process, therefore we at SNS Insider always believe that we should choose the best method which gives us results closer to reality. This allows us to reach at a stage wherein we can provide our clients best and accurate investment to output ratio.

Each report that we prepare takes a timeframe of 350-400 business hours for production. Starting from the selection of titles through a couple of in-depth brain storming session to the final QC process before uploading our titles on our website we dedicate around 350 working hours. The titles are selected based on their current market cap and the foreseen CAGR and growth.

 

The 5 steps process:

Step 1: Secondary Research:

Secondary Research or Desk Research is as the name suggests is a research process wherein, we collect data through the readily available information. In this process we use various paid and unpaid databases which our team has access to and gather data through the same. This includes examining of listed companies’ annual reports, Journals, SEC filling etc. Apart from this our team has access to various associations across the globe across different industries. Lastly, we have exchange relationships with various university as well as individual libraries.

Secondary Research

Step 2: Primary Research

When we talk about primary research, it is a type of study in which the researchers collect relevant data samples directly, rather than relying on previously collected data.  This type of research is focused on gaining content specific facts that can be sued to solve specific problems. Since the collected data is fresh and first hand therefore it makes the study more accurate and genuine.

We at SNS Insider have divided Primary Research into 2 parts.

Part 1 wherein we interview the KOLs of major players as well as the upcoming ones across various geographic regions. This allows us to have their view over the market scenario and acts as an important tool to come closer to the accurate market numbers. As many as 45 paid and unpaid primary interviews are taken from both the demand and supply side of the industry to make sure we land at an accurate judgement and analysis of the market.

This step involves the triangulation of data wherein our team analyses the interview transcripts, online survey responses and observation of on filed participants. The below mentioned chart should give a better understanding of the part 1 of the primary interview.

Primary Research

Part 2: In this part of primary research the data collected via secondary research and the part 1 of the primary research is validated with the interviews from individual consultants and subject matter experts.

Consultants are those set of people who have at least 12 years of experience and expertise within the industry whereas Subject Matter Experts are those with at least 15 years of experience behind their back within the same space. The data with the help of two main processes i.e., FGDs (Focused Group Discussions) and IDs (Individual Discussions). This gives us a 3rd party nonbiased primary view of the market scenario making it a more dependable one while collation of the data pointers.

Step 3: Data Bank Validation

Once all the information is collected via primary and secondary sources, we run that information for data validation. At our intelligence centre our research heads track a lot of information related to the market which includes the quarterly reports, the daily stock prices, and other relevant information. Our data bank server gets updated every fortnight and that is how the information which we collected using our primary and secondary information is revalidated in real time.

Data Bank Validation

Step 4: QA/QC Process

After all the data collection and validation our team does a final level of quality check and quality assurance to get rid of any unwanted or undesired mistakes. This might include but not limited to getting rid of the any typos, duplication of numbers or missing of any important information. The people involved in this process include technical content writers, research heads and graphics people. Once this process is completed the title gets uploader on our platform for our clients to read it.

Step 5: Final QC/QA Process:

This is the last process and comes when the client has ordered the study. In this process a final QA/QC is done before the study is emailed to the client. Since we believe in giving our clients a good experience of our research studies, therefore, to make sure that we do not lack at our end in any way humanly possible we do a final round of quality check and then dispatch the study to the client.
