Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/qhkz88/carboxymethyl) has announced the addition of the "Carboxymethyl Cellulose Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2013 - 2019" report to their offering.

The global carboxymethyl cellulose market is expanding due to high demand in low fat and gluten-free food. Carboxymethyl cellulose helps reduce fat content in food. High demand from the food and beverages industry coupled with increase in global oil drilling activities has been driving the global carboxymethyl cellulose market over the past few years. However, government regulations related to carboxymethyl cellulose in various end-users coupled with rising threat from substitutes is anticipated to hamper growth of the carboxymethyl cellulose market. Increasing demand from personal hygiene products and rising iron ore and taconite mining activities are expected to offer opportunities for growth for the carboxymethyl cellulose market over the next few years.

Demand for carboxymethyl cellulose was the highest from food and beverages. This end-user segment was one of the highest revenue generators and rapidly growing segment in 2012. Oil drilling fluids held the second-largest demand of 22.3% for carboxymethyl cellulose in 2012. Personal care is another major and rapidly growing outlet for carboxymethyl cellulose. The segment is likely to follow a similar trend during the forecast period. Paper processing, and paints and adhesives are anticipated to witness stable demand for carboxymethyl cellulose during the forecast period. Other end-users such as industrial detergents and mining are projected to provide higher opportunities for the carboxymethyl cellulose market in the next few years.

Demand for carboxymethyl cellulose was the highest in Asia Pacific, accounting for nearly 35% of the global market in 22.3%. This was due to increasing demand from the food and beverages industry. Asia Pacific is expected to be one of the rapidly growing markets for carboxymethyl cellulose during the forecast period. Demand for carboxymethyl cellulose is estimated to increase during the forecast period. Additionally, demand from other regions such as Latin America and the Middle East is projected to increase due to high demand from oil drilling fluids and food and beverages industries.
