Global Grease Market to Reach USD 5.0 Billion by 2033, Propelled by Expanding Automotive Industry

December 25, 2024 | Chemical & Materials

The latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Grease Market Report by Thickener Type (Metallic-Soap Thickener, Non-Soap Thickener, Inorganic Thickener, and Others), Base Oil (Mineral Oil, Synthetic Oil, Bio-based Oil), End User (Automotive, Construction and Off-Highways, General Manufacturing, Steel, Mining, and Others), and Region 2025-2033,” finds that the global grease market size reached USD 3.9 Billion in 2024. Grease is a semi-solid lubricant that provides protection to vehicles, vessels, machines, and their components from corrosion, and wear and tear. It contains performance-enhancing additives, petroleum-derived or synthetic oil, lubricating fluids, and thickeners. It also assists in maintaining flexibility, protecting bearing surfaces, enhancing stop-start performance, and reducing friction. Moreover, grease is used as an effective alternative for liquid lubricants due to its high viscosity. Owing to these properties, it finds extensive applications across chemical manufacturing, automotive, power generation, metallurgy, and food and beverage industries.

Global Grease Market Trends:

The market is primarily driven by the expanding automotive industry as grease is widely used to lubricate ball joints, tie-rod ends, suspension, chassis, control arm-shafts and U-joints in vehicles. In addition, the escalating demand for high-performance vehicles represents another major growth-inducing factor. Besides this, due to its stability and temperature tolerance properties, grease is widely utilized to protect auto parts, such as switches, connectors, wheel bearings and gears from corrosion and wear and tear. This, coupled with various product innovations, including the introduction of bio-based and environment-friendly grease manufactured using renewable and non-toxic materials, is positively influencing the market growth. Moreover, the market is further propelled by the extensive utilization of high-performance grease in wind power plants to remove residue and ensure cleaner operations. Furthermore, governments of numerous countries are undertaking initiatives to encourage the utilization of bio-based grease, which is anticipated to create a favorable market outlook in the coming years. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market value to reach USD 5.0 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a CAGR of 2.8% during the forecast period (2025-2033).
