What Is Driving Growth
Demand for deodorants, hair sprays, air fresheners and other household aerosols keeps rising as incomes grow across Asia Pacific, and this is the largest single contributor to growth. Food and pharmaceutical uses such as whipped cream dispensers and metered sprays add a second, faster-growing stream. The phase-down of HFCs is the largest restraint, and it is also reshaping the product mix, pushing fillers toward hydrocarbons and DME.
