Market Overview
The Global Composites Resin Market was valued at USD 477.79 million in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 726.24 million by 2032, expanding at a CAGR of 6.04% over 2026–2032. The market has grown steadily from USD 374.81 million in 2022, and the forecast implies an absolute increase of USD 248.45 million between 2025 and 2032. Composite resins form the continuous matrix phase of fibre-reinforced polymers (FRP); they bind glass, carbon and natural fibres into structural parts and determine the chemical, thermal and fire performance of the finished laminate. Demand is therefore a direct function of composite part production in construction, wind energy, transportation and marine applications.
Growth through 2032 is underpinned by three structural forces: the continued scale-up of wind turbine blades and global wind installations, lightweighting in road, rail and aerospace transport to meet fuel-economy and emissions targets, and the substitution of steel, concrete and timber by corrosion-resistant FRP in infrastructure, pipes, tanks and building products. Partially offsetting these forces are feedstock price volatility (styrene, bisphenol-A, epichlorohydrin, glycols and anhydrides), tightening occupational-exposure rules for styrene, and the unresolved end-of-life recyclability of thermoset composites.
Key Findings
By Resin Type: Unsaturated Polyester is the largest segment with USD 215.01 million in 2025 (45.00% share), while Epoxy is the fastest-growing segment at a CAGR of 6.90% over 2026–2032, reaching USD 230.58 million by 2032.
By End-Use Industry: Building & Construction holds the largest share among the named end-use industries with USD 119.45 million in 2025 (25.00%), equal in value to the Others category; Wind Energy is the fastest-growing end use at a CAGR of 7.79%, rising to USD 163.04 million by 2032.

Building & Construction (USD 119.45 million) and the Others group (USD 119.45 million, spanning electrical and electronics, pipes and tanks, consumer goods and sporting goods) each accounted for 25.00% of demand in 2025. Wind Energy and Transportation each represented USD 95.56 million, but Wind Energy grows faster at 7.79% against 6.56% for Transportation, so it becomes the third-largest end use by 2032 at USD 163.04 million. Marine, at USD 47.78 million, is the smallest and slowest-growing end use (4.94%).
Region. Asia Pacific (USD 172.00 million), North America (USD 143.34 million) and Europe (USD 133.78 million) together accounted for 94.00% of the 2025 market. Latin America and Middle East & Africa are each valued at USD 14.33 million but are forecast to grow faster than the mature regions, at 7.07% and 7.39% respectively.
Competitive Landscape Summary
The market is moderately consolidated at the level of each resin chemistry but fragmented overall. Epoxy supply is led by large, integrated producers such as Olin, Westlake (which acquired Hexion's epoxy business in 2022), Huntsman and Kukdo Chemical, alongside wind-focused formulators such as Swancor. Unsaturated polyester and vinyl ester resins are dominated by specialist composite-resin suppliers, including ALTA Performance Materials (formerly INEOS Composites), AOC (acquired by Nippon Paint Holdings in 2025), Polynt and Scott Bader, which compete on formulation know-how, technical service and regional manufacturing footprints. Competition increasingly centres on low-styrene and styrene-free systems, faster-curing infusion and pultrusion resins, recyclable thermoset chemistries and bio-based content.
Challenges and Opportunities
Challenges: volatile petrochemical feedstock costs; regulatory pressure on styrene emissions and on bisphenol-A; limited recycling routes for thermoset composites; wind-industry margin pressure and policy uncertainty in some markets; and trade-defence measures on epoxy resin imports.
Opportunities: recyclable and bio-based resin systems for wind blades and automotive parts; hydrogen storage and transport (Type IV pressure vessels); FRP rebar, bridge decks and pipe rehabilitation in infrastructure renewal programmes; and rising composite processing capacity in India, the Middle East and Latin America.
Future Outlook
Over 2026–2032 the market is projected to rise from USD 510.73 million to USD 726.24 million. The product mix will gradually shift toward higher-performance chemistries, with epoxy expanding its share as wind blades lengthen and carbon-fibre use spreads in transport and pressure vessels. Geographically, Asia Pacific will add USD 106.22 million between 2025 and 2032, the largest increment of any region, led by China and India. Suppliers that combine regional manufacturing, application engineering and credible sustainability credentials (reduced styrene, recyclability and bio-based content) are best placed to capture this growth.
The Composites Resin Market market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.8% from 2022 to 2032.

Composite resins are polymer matrix materials that are combined with reinforcing fibres (principally glass fibre, carbon fibre and, to a lesser extent, aramid and natural fibres) and fillers to produce fibre-reinforced polymer composites. The resin wets out and binds the reinforcement, transfers load between fibres, protects them from environmental and chemical attack, and governs the laminate's temperature resistance, fire behaviour and surface finish. The market covered in this report consists predominantly of thermosetting resins that cure irreversibly through cross-linking reactions, initiated by peroxides, amine or anhydride hardeners, heat or radiation.
Included in scope: unsaturated polyester resins (orthophthalic, isophthalic, terephthalic and dicyclopentadiene types); epoxy resins and formulated epoxy systems used as composite matrices (infusion, prepreg, filament winding, pultrusion and RTM grades); vinyl ester resins (bisphenol-A epoxy, novolac and urethane-modified types); and other composite matrix resins, including phenolic, polyurethane, bismaleimide, cyanate ester and reactive thermoplastic resins. Gelcoats and resins formulated for SMC/BMC compounding are included where they are sold as composite resin systems.
Excluded from scope: reinforcing fibres, fabrics and core materials; finished composite parts and intermediate compounds valued at the part or compound level; resins used in non-composite applications such as surface coatings, adhesives, flooring, casting and electronic encapsulation; and commodity thermoplastic polymers used in short-fibre injection-moulding compounds.

Market Size Estimation
Top-down approach. The overall market for thermoset composite resins was derived from total composite production and resin consumption data, and then apportioned by resin type, end-use industry and region using resin-to-fibre ratios, application mix and regional production data.
Bottom-up approach. Resin consumption was built up from end-use activity indicators, such as wind capacity additions and blade mass, vehicle and boat production, pipe and tank output and construction activity, multiplied by resin intensity per unit and average selling prices. Company-level resin revenues and capacities were also aggregated as a cross-check.
Data triangulation. Results from both approaches were compared with supplier revenue data and with primary interview inputs. Differences were reconciled iteratively until segment, regional and country totals were consistent with one another and with the global total.
Forecasting Methodology
Forecasts were developed by combining historic demand trends with forward-looking indicators. The factors considered include GDP and construction output, wind installation outlooks, vehicle production and electrification, marine and leisure-boat production, infrastructure investment programmes, resin pricing and feedstock costs, regulatory developments affecting styrene and bisphenol-A, and technology substitution between resin chemistries and between composites and competing materials. Each segment was modelled individually and then reconciled with regional and global totals; the resulting projections were reviewed with industry experts.
Assumptions and Limitations
Market values are expressed in nominal USD Million at the resin producer's selling-price level; inter-currency effects are reflected at average annual exchange rates.
No major disruption to petrochemical feedstock availability is assumed beyond normal cyclical price volatility.
Existing regulations on styrene emissions, chemical registration and wind energy support are assumed to remain broadly in force, with announced changes reflected from their effective dates.
Captive resin consumption by vertically integrated fabricators is valued at equivalent market prices.
Country-level estimates for smaller markets rely more heavily on trade data and proxy indicators, and are therefore subject to a wider margin of uncertainty.

View Subscription PlansIntroduction
The composites resin market is moderately fragmented. Each resin chemistry has its own competitive structure. Epoxy supply is relatively consolidated around a small number of large, backward-integrated producers in North America, Europe and Asia, complemented by formulators that develop application-specific systems for wind blades, aerospace and hydrogen storage. Unsaturated polyester and vinyl ester resins are supplied by a mix of global specialists and many regional and local producers, particularly in China, India and Europe, which results in strong price competition for standard grades.
Competition is based on formulation know-how, product qualification with major customers, technical service, regional manufacturing footprint and feedstock integration. Since 2022 the competitive landscape has been reshaped by significant ownership changes: Westlake's acquisition of Hexion's epoxy business, the sale of INEOS Composites to KPS Capital Partners (now ALTA Performance Materials), Nippon Paint Holdings' acquisition of AOC, and Swancor's divestment of its China subsidiary. At the same time, Western epoxy producers have closed or rationalised capacity while Asian producers have expanded, and trade-defence measures in the European Union and the United States have altered import flows. Sustainability, including recyclable epoxies, bio-based and recycled-content resins and low-styrene systems, has become a key area of differentiation.

Analytical insights on Composites Resin Market covering market dynamics, competitive landscape, and strategic outlook.
The Composites Resin Market market is projected to reach $726.24M by 2032, growing at 6.8% CAGR. The Unsaturated Polyester segment holds the largest share.
The Global Composites Resin Market is shaped by a combination of macroeconomic forces, such as energy-transition investment, infrastructure spending and industrial production, and industry-specific factors, such as resin chemistry innovation, feedstock costs and processing regulation. This chapter evaluates these factors in a growth factor analysis and then discusses the principal drivers, restraints, opportunities, trends and challenges. The impact scores in the growth factor analysis are analyst assessments, rated on a scale of 1 (minimal impact) to 10 (very strong impact) for each forecast sub-period, and reflect the expected direction and strength of each factor's influence on market growth.
Market Growth Factor Analysis
Macro factors that promote growth, led by energy-transition investment, strengthen over the forecast period as installation pipelines mature, whereas feedstock volatility and trade frictions are expected to ease modestly once new capacity and supply arrangements settle. Among micro factors, sustainability-oriented innovation, in the form of recyclable, bio-based and low-styrene resins, gains importance in the later years as these technologies move from pilot to commercial scale.
Expansion of Wind Energy Capacity and Longer Turbine Blades
Wind energy is the fastest-growing end use for composite resins. Turbine blades are built almost entirely from glass- and carbon-fibre-reinforced epoxy, with polyester and vinyl ester used in some designs, and a single modern blade can contain several tonnes of resin. According to the Global Wind Energy Council, a record 117 GW of wind capacity was installed worldwide in 2024, led by China. Blade lengths have increased steadily as turbine ratings rise, particularly offshore, and longer blades require more resin per blade as well as higher-performance infusion and pultrusion systems for spar caps. Policy frameworks such as the European Wind Power Action Plan, China's renewable energy targets and auction programmes in India, Brazil and the Middle East sustain multi-year demand visibility. These dynamics translate into a forecast CAGR of 7.79% for the Wind Energy segment over 2026–2032, the highest of any end use, and make wind the single most important driver of epoxy demand growth.
Lightweighting in Transportation
Automotive, commercial vehicle, rail and aerospace manufacturers use composites to reduce weight and meet fuel-economy and CO2 standards. Battery-electric vehicles add a further incentive, because every kilogram saved extends driving range or allows a smaller battery. Sheet moulding compound (SMC) based on unsaturated polyester and vinyl ester is widely used for body panels, battery enclosures and structural covers, while carbon-fibre/epoxy is adopted in premium structures, hydrogen pressure vessels and leaf springs. Rail interiors and exteriors use fire-retardant polyester and phenolic composites that meet EN 45545 fire-safety requirements. Regulatory drivers include the EU CO2 emission performance standards for new cars and vans and the U.S. Corporate Average Fuel Economy programme. Transportation is forecast to grow at 6.56% over 2026–2032, reaching USD 150.33 million by 2032.
Infrastructure Renewal and Corrosion-Resistant Construction
In building and infrastructure, composites replace steel, concrete and timber where corrosion resistance, low maintenance and light weight matter. Applications include FRP rebar and grating, bridge decks, cooling-tower structures, water and wastewater pipes, storage tanks, window profiles, cladding and sanitary ware. Unsaturated polyester and vinyl ester resins dominate these applications because of their cost-effectiveness and chemical resistance. Large public investment programmes, including the U.S. Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, the EU's Renovation Wave and India's infrastructure and water-supply missions, support demand for long-life materials. The publication of design guides and standards for GFRP reinforcement, such as ACI CODE-440.11 in the United States, has made FRP easier to specify. Building & Construction remains one of the two largest end uses at USD 119.45 million in 2025.
Performance Gains from Resin Innovation
Resin suppliers continue to expand the performance envelope of composites through faster-curing, low-viscosity infusion epoxies, toughened vinyl esters, fire-retardant and low-smoke formulations, and high-temperature systems. Faster cure cycles reduce mould time in blade, automotive and pultrusion production, lowering part costs and widening the number of applications in which composites compete economically with metals. In parallel, low-styrene-emission and styrene-free polyester and vinyl ester systems allow fabricators to comply with workplace exposure limits without heavy capital investment in ventilation. These innovations broaden the addressable market and support a gradual shift in mix toward higher-value resins, which is reflected in the above-market growth rates of Epoxy (6.90%) and Vinyl Ester (6.39%).
Recyclable, Bio-Based and Circular Resin Systems
Recyclable epoxy systems that can be chemically dissolved at end of life, reactive thermoplastic resins that can be infused like thermosets, and resins with bio-based or recycled content (for example from recycled PET or bio-glycols) open new opportunities, particularly in wind blades, automotive and marine applications. Early commercial projects with wind OEMs and boat builders show that customers are willing to qualify these systems, creating a premium segment for suppliers with proven circular solutions.
Hydrogen Storage and Energy Infrastructure
Hydrogen and compressed natural gas vehicles, refuelling stations and tube trailers rely on Type III and Type IV pressure vessels made by filament-winding carbon fibre with epoxy resin. Government hydrogen strategies in the EU, Japan, Korea, China, India and the Gulf states support investment in storage and transport infrastructure, creating a high-value growth avenue for epoxy suppliers. Grid infrastructure, including composite utility poles, cross-arms and insulators, provides further opportunities.
Growth in Emerging Manufacturing Hubs
India, Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Latin America are expanding wind-blade, automotive and construction-product manufacturing. India is the fastest-growing country market in this study at a CAGR of 9.77%, while Middle East & Africa (7.39%) and Latin America (7.07%) are the fastest-growing regions. Local resin production, toll manufacturing and distribution partnerships in these markets can capture demand that is currently served by imports.
Feedstock Price Volatility
Composite resins are derived from petrochemical intermediates: styrene, maleic and phthalic anhydride and glycols for polyester; bisphenol-A and epichlorohydrin for epoxy; and methacrylic acid for vinyl ester. Prices of these inputs track crude oil, benzene and propylene markets and have been volatile since 2021, compressing resin margins and complicating long-term pricing with blade and automotive customers. Producers that are not backward-integrated are particularly exposed, while fabricators may delay switching from metals when composite part costs are unpredictable.
Styrene and Bisphenol-A Regulation
Styrene, the reactive diluent in most polyester and vinyl ester resins, is subject to occupational exposure limits and emission controls. In the United States, open-mould and closed-mould operations are regulated under the EPA's National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Reinforced Plastic Composites Production, and the International Agency for Research on Cancer classified styrene as probably carcinogenic to humans (Group 2A) in 2018. Bisphenol-A, the main building block of conventional epoxy, has been identified as a substance of very high concern under the EU REACH regulation. Compliance increases costs for fabricators and accelerates the need for reformulation.
Limited Recyclability of Thermoset Composites
Cured thermoset resins cannot be re-melted, and most end-of-life composites are currently landfilled, incinerated or co-processed in cement kilns. With the first generation of wind turbines reaching end of life and several European countries restricting the landfilling of composite waste, recyclability has become a procurement criterion, especially for wind and automotive customers. This creates a risk of substitution by thermoplastic composites or other materials where recyclable alternatives exist.
Shift to Closed-Mould and Automated Processes
Fabricators are moving from hand lay-up and spray-up to resin infusion, RTM, pultrusion and automated SMC compression moulding to improve quality, reduce emissions and lower labour costs. This shift favours low-viscosity, fast-curing and tightly specified resins, and increases the importance of supplier technical service and process co-development.
Pultruded Carbon Spar Caps in Wind Blades
Blade designers increasingly use pultruded carbon-fibre planks in spar caps to stiffen very long blades. This changes resin requirements, raising demand for pultrusion-grade epoxy and vinyl ester systems and for infusion resins with good adhesion to pre-cured laminates.
Trade Defence and Supply-Chain Regionalisation
Trade measures are reshaping resin flows. In July 2025 the European Commission imposed definitive anti-dumping duties on epoxy resin imports from China, Taiwan and Thailand, and in 2025 the U.S. International Trade Commission completed its final phase of the anti-dumping and countervailing duty investigations into epoxy resins from China, India, South Korea, Taiwan and Thailand, initiated on petitions filed by U.S. producers in 2024. Such measures encourage regional sourcing and local capacity, but may also raise costs for downstream fabricators.
Wind-Industry Policy Uncertainty
Although global wind installations continue to grow, policy shifts can interrupt demand in individual markets. In the United States, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act of July 2025 accelerated the phase-out of federal tax credits for new wind projects, creating uncertainty for U.S. blade production after the current project pipeline. Resin suppliers must manage capacity across regions to absorb such swings.
The composites resin value chain spans four principal stages, from petrochemical feedstocks to end-use industries. Value addition is concentrated in resin formulation and in composite part fabrication, where technical know-how and process control determine performance and cost.
Raw materials. Upstream supply is concentrated among large petrochemical companies; epoxy producers such as Olin and Westlake are backward-integrated into chlorine, epichlorohydrin or BPA, which provides cost advantages. Manufacturing. Resin manufacturing is capital-moderate but knowledge-intensive, with value created through formulation and qualification with customers. Distribution. Regional distributors are important for the long tail of small fabricators, particularly in marine and construction. End users. Fabricators specify resins based on mechanical performance, process window, regulatory compliance and total part cost.
Across regions, regulatory direction is consistent: tighter control of volatile organic emissions and hazardous substances in resin processing, stricter fire-performance requirements in transport and construction, and growing emphasis on recyclability and circularity. These requirements raise compliance costs but also reward suppliers with low-emission and fire-retardant formulations.

Westlake is a vertically integrated North American and European materials group. Its chain starts with ethane- and salt-based feedstocks and runs through ethylene and chlor-alkali into PVC, polyethylene, epoxy and caustic soda. It then converts a large share of its own PVC into branded building products and PVC pipe, fittings and compounds. This "molecule-to-house" integration is unusual among U.S. petrochemical producers. The Housing and Infrastructure Products (HIP) segment provides relatively stable, high-margin cash flow, with a 20% EBITDA margin in FY2025. The Performance and Essential Materials (PEM) segment provides high operating leverage to the global commodity cycle. FY2025 was a trough year: a GAAP net loss of $1.5bn after a $727M goodwill impairment and four plant closures. Management has since pivoted to a self-help programme, the "three-pillar" plan targeting ~$600M of 2026 EBITDA uplift. That plan, together with a Middle-East-driven steepening of the global cost curve, returned the company to profit in Q2 2026. Westlake is family-controlled and investment-grade rated, with a 22-year record of annual dividend increases. --- ### Company's own description (paraphrased from 10-K FY2025, Item 1) Westlake describes itself as a vertically integrated global manufacturer and marketer of housing and infrastructure products and of performance and essential materials. Its materials serve residential construction, flexible and rigid packaging, automotive, healthcare, water treatment, wind turbines, coatings and other durable and non-durable goods. It reports two operating segments, HIP and PEM. It emphasises two layers of integration: **Upstream to midstream:** ethylene and chlor-alkali (chlorine and caustic soda) feed vinyls, polyethylene and epoxy. **Midstream to downstream:** PVC feeds residential building products, PVC pipe and fittings, and PVC compounds in HIP. ### Independent characterization Economically, Westlake is two businesses sharing one balance sheet. **PEM** is a global-scale, cost-advantaged commodity producer. At 18 Feb 2026 it had ~39.2bn lb/yr of aggregate production capacity (10-K FY2025). Its competitive edge comes from: - U.S. Gulf Coast ethane feedstock; - captive ethylene through OpCo (Westlake Chemical Partners) and a 50% interest in the LACC cracker; - self-sufficiency in chlorine; - owned salt domes and on-site cogeneration at Lake Charles (~790 MW), Plaquemine (~240 MW) and Natrium (~100 MW). PEM earnings swing on global supply and demand for PVC, caustic soda and polyethylene. They also swing on the oil-to-gas spread that sets the global cost curve. PEM EBITDA excluding identified items was only $267M in FY2025 but $416M in Q2 2026 alone. **HIP** is a branded, distribution-heavy building-products and water-infrastructure business. It runs 53 manufacturing facilities, primarily in North America, plus 11 compounds plants globally. Its EBITDA margins have been 19–25% since FY2023, and its earnings are driven by: - U.S. repair-and-remodel activity; - new residential construction; - municipal water and sewer spending. Roughly 60–70% of its PVC input is sourced internally from PEM, which keeps value-chain margin inside the group. ### Revenue model Westlake is almost entirely a product-sale business. Licensing exists but is immaterial: the company says it licenses internally developed technology "when the opportunity makes sense." There is no subscription or service revenue of note. **PEM** sells: - under contracts priced monthly against benchmarks (with lags); - on spot and export markets; - through ethylene co-product sales via OpCo, including propylene, crude butadiene, pyrolysis gasoline and hydrogen. **HIP** sells: - through an internal sales force and manufacturers' representatives to distributors, dealers, contractors, builders and municipal water and sewer channels; - supported by 47 North American distribution centres and warehouses (39 leased, 8 owned). No single customer accounted for ≥10% of either segment's net sales in FY2025 (10-K FY2025).
Huntsman is a mid-cap, globally diversified manufacturer of differentiated chemicals, organised around three segments. The largest is Polyurethanes, built on MDI (methylene diphenyl diisocyanate) and downstream systems, which accounts for roughly 65% of segment revenue. The other two are Performance Products, covering amines, maleic anhydride and catalysts, and Advanced Materials, covering epoxy, acrylic and polyurethane-based adhesives, composites and formulations for aerospace, power and industrial markets. Management's thesis since 2018 has been to move away from commodities and towards downstream, formulated and specified products tied to energy efficiency and lightweighting. Management has said these themes touch about two-thirds of sales. That repositioning was executed through divestitures (Venator, Chemical Intermediates & Surfactants, Textile Effects) and bolt-on acquisitions. It was then overwhelmed by a severe and prolonged chemical down-cycle. Adjusted EBITDA fell from USD 1.34 billion in FY2021 to USD 275 million in FY2025, the dividend was cut 65%, and the credit rating fell to sub-investment grade. The company's answer is an all-stock merger of equals with upstream chlor-alkali/epoxy producer Olin, which creates the vertically integrated "OlinHuntsman". --- ### Company self-description In its FY2025 earnings release (Feb 2026), Huntsman describes itself as a publicly traded global manufacturer and marketer of differentiated and specialty chemicals. It reported roughly USD 6 billion of 2025 revenue from continuing operations and sells thousands of chemical products worldwide to manufacturers serving consumer and industrial end markets [V]. The 10-K for FY2025 (filed February 2026) frames the business across three reportable segments: Polyurethanes, Performance Products and Advanced Materials. ### Independent characterisation Huntsman is best understood as a mid-stream to downstream chemical converter with one large semi-commoditised profit pool (MDI) and two smaller specialty franchises. The three businesses have different economics: **Polyurethanes (≈65% of FY2025 segment revenue):** is a scale business anchored by MDI production at Geismar (Louisiana, USA), Rotterdam (Netherlands) and Caojing (Shanghai, China, through joint ventures). Huntsman's strategy is to push as much MDI as possible into "differentiated" downstream systems: spray-foam insulation (Huntsman Building Solutions), automotive foams and composites, TPU elastomers, and footwear and furniture systems. These systems carry better and stickier margins than component MDI. Even so, segment profitability tracks the global MDI supply/demand balance. That balance has been structurally weakened by Chinese capacity additions, led by Wanhua. **Performance Products (≈17%):** makes amines (ethyleneamines, polyetheramines sold as JEFFAMINE), catalysts, carbonates and maleic anhydride. It is US-centred, with key sites on the Texas/Louisiana Gulf Coast plus Petfurdo in Hungary. Its end markets are coatings, composites, fuels and lubricants, agriculture, construction and electronics. The European maleic anhydride plant at Moers (Germany) was closed in 2025. **Advanced Materials (≈18%):** is the highest-quality franchise. It includes the ARALDITE adhesives and epoxy systems heritage, inherited from Ciba via Vantico, and serves aerospace, power transmission and distribution, automotive, electronics and industrial markets. It has consistently delivered segment adjusted EBITDA margins of about 16–20% and is the most resilient segment through the cycle. ### Value-chain position Upstream, Huntsman buys benzene, nitric acid/aniline inputs, chlorine/caustic, propylene oxide/polyols feedstocks, ethylene oxide/ethylene, natural gas and n-butane for maleic. It is not integrated into chlorine or epoxy building blocks (epichlorohydrin, bisphenol-A liquid epoxy resin). This gap is the core industrial logic of the Olin merger, since Olin is a leading chlor-alkali and epoxy producer. Downstream, Huntsman sells to formulators, OEMs and contractors. ### Customer types and end markets **Customers:** OEMs (automotive, aerospace, appliance, electrical equipment), formulators (coatings, adhesives, composites), construction product makers (insulation boards, spray-foam contractors, OSB/engineered wood), and industrial processors (footwear, furniture, lubricants, fuel additives). **End markets (management characterisation):** construction and insulation (the largest exposure), automotive and transportation, aerospace, power/electrical, industrial, consumer (footwear, furniture, bedding), energy (fuels and lubricants), and electronics. **Structural theme:** Management states that energy efficiency and lightweighting affect about two-thirds of total sales (FY2023 Q4 release, Feb 2024) [V].
