Report on biocides in leather published
Dublin-based Research and Markets has published a new study, ‘Biocides In Leather: Global Report – 2007’. The publication includes market analyses and discussions of industry trends as well as assessing the impact of current and emerging regulations on the use of biocides.
It also develops forecasts for biocides from 2007 through 2012 in view of the efforts of biocide manufacturers and formulators in launching new biocide formulations to meet changing market requirements.
The report also provides an overview for each of the major geographical regions including value and volume data for different biocides as well as a summary of each of the biocides that are being used to control microbes within consumer and industrial applications.
The company profiles section—which examines some 30 firms including Arch,
BASF, Buckman, Clariant, Dow, Lanxess, Rohm & Haas and Schulke & Mayr— includes detailed discussion of the companies that have pioneered biocide development and examines how their available products and services are setting the standards for preservation.
The report also studies the future directions of the biocide industry, the most important biocides used in end-user applications, the most promising biocides, and the impact regulations will have on biocide consumption.
