The global rosin market size was USD XX Mn in 2022 and is likely to reach USD XX Mn by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of XX% during 2023–2031. Rising demand for eco-friendly products and high pace of bio-based materials fuels the market.
Rosin is a substantial form of resin extracted from pine trees. It can be translucent or semi-black in color and fragile. Rosin is used in the pharma sector to make capsules. It is an essential substance in the production of turpentine oil.
The COVID-19 pandemic impeded the market during forecast period. The production of paints and adhesives halted during the peak of the pandemic as repeated lockdowns were imposed globally. Additionally, the shipment of raw materials and products was hampered due to the restrictions imposed by the governments. These factors slowed the market growth. However, during and post the lockdown period, the demand for Do It Yourself (DIY) goods increased considerably. It is one of the factors that is likely to propel the market as DIY products’ several components need the use of adhesives, rubbers, and other such materials.
Rosin Market Dynamics
Key Drivers
Rising demand for turpentine oil for furniture applications is anticipated to propel the market during the forecast period. Rosin is used to making turpentine oil that is used as a solvent in paint and in cosmetics and soaps. It is an important substance in manufacturing rubber. Rosin helps to soften the rubber and maintain flexibility, elasticity, and cohesion. The pharmaceutical industry is adopting rosin resin, as it is used in the production of nano-particles and microcapsules.
Existing Restraints
Rising cost of rosin and lack of proficient labor are expected to restrain the market. Variation in prices is hampering the market. Rosin can be allergic to some users having sensitive skin. Thus, hampering the market.
Emerging Opportunities
Development of advanced technologies to enhance harvesting is likely to create opportunities in the market. Rosin is biodegradable, as it can be altered biochemically and chemically, and is safe and stable. Increasing interest in key players to boost profits and production, which is expected to create opportunities in the market.

Market Segment Insights
Based on application, the rosin market is divided into paints and varnishes, printing inks, rubbers, adhesives, paper sizing, and other applications. The paint and varnishes segment is expected to expand at a significant pace during the projection period. Rosin is an important material in the paint and varnish sector. Rosin gets easily dissolved in gasoline, alcohol, turpentine, and in other materials. It plays an important role in making road coatings and various types of varnishes.
On the basis of type, the global market is segregated into tall oil, gum, and wood. The gum Type is projected to expand at a considerable CAGR during the forecast period. Gum rosin is called gum resin and colophony. Gum rosin is extracted from pine trees and is used widely in industrial works. It can be applied in inks and paints, as a processing aid and often acts as an adhesive in labels used for branding. In the food industry, gum rosins are converted into hydrogenated rosin to make chewing gums.
In terms of region, the global rosin market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. Asia Pacific is expected to dominate the market during the projection period owing to the increase in the demand for rosin in the region. Rosin is used to make rubber adhesive, pressure-sensitive, and hot melt. This, in turn used in the making of packaging, and in the construction and automotive industries. According to the Plastic Industry Association of India, India is the fifth-largest industry in the world growing at a rate of about 25% per year. Increasing population rate is expected to propel the market in the coming years. Food processing and packaging cost is expected to be lower than that in Europe. Cheap labor expenses and the number of skilled laborers is other factors driving the market in the coming years.
