The price of triethylene glycol in North America was influenced by elevated production costs and higher prices of feedstock ethylene oxide and naphtha. Positive economic indicators like consecutive job gains and a stable jobless rate also contributed to the heightened industrial activities. The price of triethylene glycol in the USA for Q4 2023 reached 1084 USD/MT in December.
The price trend for triethylene glycol in China reached 1210 USD/MT in December 2023. The market witnessed an upward trajectory marked by increased prices due to persistent supply tightness and heightened production expenses. The increased production costs of ethylene oxide and naphtha also influenced the price changes. Despite these problems, like reduced production activity and concerns regarding geopolitical conflicts impacting crude oil prices, the demand from downstream industries remained strong.
In Germany the triethylene glycol prices reached 1563 USD/MT in Q4 2023, influenced by decreasing demand from the oilfield sector. However, there was a modest enhancement in the demand from the plasticizer industries.

Triethylene Glycol Market Analysis
The global triethylene glycol market size reached US$ 831.8 Million in 2023. By 2032, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 1194.2 Million, at a projected CAGR of 4.10% during 2023-2032.
- Triethylene glycol is essential to the natural gas sector and is mostly utilized in dehydration procedures. To prevent pipeline corrosion and the production of hydrates, which can result in operational inefficiencies and safety hazards, this application is essential since it eliminates water vapor from natural gas. The demand for triethylene glycol is driven by the increasing awareness about the beneficial aspects of natural gas and the rise in worldwide energy consumption. As industrialized and developing countries are switching to cleaner-burning fuels, natural gas is being favored over coal and oil. The development of new gas resources and increasing investments in natural gas infrastructure are propelling the growth of the market. According to the IMARC Group, the global oil and gas market is expected to reach US$ 65.8 Billion by 2032.
- Triethylene glycol is widely used by the textile and polyester resin industries, which use it as a plasticizer and as a raw material to make polyester fibers and resins. The triethylene glycol usage is mostly driven by the expansion of these industries. Triethylene glycol is used in the textile sector because of its hygroscopic qualities, which are crucial for preserving the longevity and quality of materials. Apart from this, the inclusion of triethylene glycol enhances the qualities of polyester resins, which find extensive use in the packaging, construction, and automotive industries, among other sectors. Triethylene glycol demand is predicted to remain strong due to increased consumer expenditure on cars. As per the Economic Times, passenger car vehicle sales in India increased by 4 million units for the first time ever in the calendar year 2023.
- Triethylene glycol usage is influenced by environmental concerns and more stringent laws pertaining to waste treatment and industrial emissions. Triethylene glycol-based systems are used more often by industries for air and gas dehydration because of their effectiveness and less of an impact on the environment than other approaches. Triethylene glycol applications are becoming more sustainable and financially feasible due to continuous technological breakthroughs in triethylene glycol recovery and recycling systems that are also increasing process efficiency and lowering operating costs. It is a favored option in sectors looking to lessen their environmental impact because of these developments, which also promote adherence to environmental rules. The demand for effective and environmentally friendly solutions like TEG is anticipated to rise in tandem with rising environmental consciousness and stricter laws worldwide.
