Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/08/2018 -- Organic pigments are artificially synthesized carbon compounds that are used to impart color to substances. They impart transparent colors as opposed to inorganic ones, which produce opaque colors. However, some of the organic pigments synthesized have opaque colors. Organic pigments possess high color strength, but poor dispersibility. They have limited solubility in water, organic solvents, and various kinds of media. Organic pigments are non-toxic and have a better environmental profile vis-à-vis organic pigments, which are toxic and contain metals such as lead and cadmium.

Organic Pigments Market: Overview
Based on type, the organic pigments market can be segmented into azo pigments, phthalocyanine pigments, and High Performance Pigments (HPPs). HPPs is expected to be a rapidly growing segment of the market during the forecast period. In terms of application, the organic pigments market can be divided into printing inks, paints & coatings, cosmetics, plastics, and others. Printing inks are used in food & beverages and consumer goods packaging. Printing inks is anticipated to be a rapidly growing segment of the organic pigments market during the forecast period. This can be ascribed to the implementation of stringent regulations on the usage of inorganic metallic pigments in food and beverages. Organic pigments are widely used in the food & beverages segment. This is anticipated to drive the demand for organic pigments during the forecast period. Based on end-use industry, the organic pigments market can be segregated into food & beverages, consumer goods packaging, automotive, industrial, and others.
Organic Pigments Market: Trends & Developments
The organic pigments market has been expanding steadily since the last few years. These pigments are environmentally friendly. This is a major driver of the market. These pigments are widely used in food & beverages and cosmetics industries. They are also used in master batches for imparting colors to plastics. However, high cost of organic pigments is a restraint to the organic pigments market. High cost of organic pigments is particularly hampering the paints & coatings segment, wherein regulations are not stringent and inorganic pigments are still the dominant type. Rise in popularity of mixed metal oxide based inorganic pigments is another challenge faced by the organic pigments market. Mixed metal oxide based inorganic pigments are non-toxic. They are used as an alternative to lead chromate pigments.
