About ERM
Sector Dynamics
A growth rate of 10-12% per
annum through 2017 is expected
based on the increasing demand
for chemicals across various
sectors, as well as a growing
middle-class population, rising
disposable incomes and
consumption. A rising trend in
end consumption demand for
paints, textiles, adhesives and
construction is leading to
substantial growth opportunities
for chemicals companies.
Agrochemicals and specialty
chemicals in particular, are key
to the success of the chemical
sector. Promoting a market for
sustainable products is a top
business priority in terms of
sustainability especially the
Agrichem sector

almost everything we
do in our daily lives.
