The bromine market size is expected to reach USD 3.30 Billion by 2034, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report "Bromine Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report: By Derivative (Organobromine, Clear Brine Fluids, Hydrogen Bromide), By Application, By End User, and By Region; Market Forecast, 2025-2034" gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.
Bromine is widely used across flame retardants, oil & gas, pharmaceuticals, water treatment, and agrochemical applications due to its chemical reactivity and thermal stability. It plays a critical role in clear brine fluids for drilling operations and flame-retardant additives in electronics and construction materials and intermediate compounds in drug and pesticide production.
The growth of the bromine market is primarily driven by rising demand for flame retardants in the electronics, automotive and construction sectors. Additionally, expansion in global oil & gas exploration activities is driving the adoption of bromine-based drilling fluids.
Bromine Market Report Highlights
Based on derivative, the organobromine segment dominated the revenue share in 2024, owing to its wide usage in flame retardants, pharmaceutical intermediates, and agricultural chemicals.
In terms of application, the flame retardants segment dominated the market in 2024. This is driven by strong fire safety regulations and rising demand across electronics and building materials.
In terms of end user, the oil & gas segment dominated the market in 2024, owing to the extensive use of clear brine fluids in drilling and well completion activities.
Asia Pacific accounted for the majority share of the global bromine market in 2024, fueled by chemical production growth in China and India and rising regional demand for flame retardants and pharmaceuticals.
Middle East & Africa held significant market share, fueled by offshore oil exploration and increasing bromine exports from Israel and Jordan.
