The global antifreeze market size reached approximately USD 7.68 billion in 2023. The market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.7% between 2024 and 2032, reaching a value of around USD 13.80 billion by 2032.
Antifreeze is an additive solution that helps fluctuate the boiling and freezing points of any water-based liquid and is mainly utilised in mechanical equipment. These are used in below-freezing point environments to avert freezing of any heat transfer liquid. For instance, in the automobile sector, antifreeze works as a coolant to prevent overheating engines by increasing the boiling point of the water-based liquid in the engine. Antifreeze is pumped into the engine to maintain an optimal operating temperature in accordance with the outside temperature.
The rising population worldwide is leading to an increased demand for passenger vehicles in many countries owing to better living standards and growing expenditure due to better income levels. As a result, more individuals are investing in efficient passenger vehicles for ease of transportation which can support the antifreeze market growth. In addition, with growing investments in the development of the commercial infrastructure of the country due to rapid urbanisation, the demand for high yields of commercial and industrial vehicles such as trucks and cranes has increased significantly. Consequently, antifreeze additives are in huge demand to save vehicle repair costs due to overheating damages and corrosion. Moreover, the continuous research by the leading manufacturers to formulate efficient, environment-friendly, and less toxic antifreeze additives is expected to drive market growth in the forecast period.
