Hindered Amine Light Stabilizers (HALS) Market Report 2026

The hindered amine light stabilizers (hals) market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.63 billion in 2025 to $1.88 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth of plastics consumption in construction, rising automotive production volumes, increasing use of polymer coatings, expansion of agricultural film applications, availability of advanced stabilizer formulations.

The hindered amine light stabilizers (hals) market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.22 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing demand for durable lightweight materials, rising adoption of sustainable plastic additives, expansion of electric vehicle component production, growing investments in high-performance coatings, increasing focus on extended product lifecycles. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing use of hals in automotive plastics, rising demand for long-life polymer stabilization, growing adoption in agricultural films, expansion of weather-resistant coatings, enhanced focus on uv protection performance.

The expanding automotive industry is expected to drive the growth of the hindered amine light stabilizers (HALS) market in the coming years. The automotive sector includes companies and organizations involved in the design, development, manufacturing, marketing, sale, repair, and modification of motor vehicles. Hindered amine light stabilizers (HALS) play a critical role by protecting polymers and plastics from UV radiation and heat, which extends the lifespan and appearance of automotive components, reduces degradation, and enhances overall durability. For example, in August 2023, according to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, a US-based government agency, total vehicle production in the United States increased to 11.77 million units in July, up from 10.91 million units in June. Therefore, the growth of the automotive industry is boosting the demand for HALS.

The rising applications in the packaging industry are also expected to fuel demand for HALS in the coming years. The packaging industry involves designing, manufacturing, and distributing materials and containers that protect, preserve, and transport products. Demand for packaging is increasing due to factors such as the growth of e-commerce, food safety requirements, and consumer convenience. HALS improves UV resistance in packaging, maintaining mechanical integrity, color, and clarity, which is essential for outdoor exposure and extended shelf life. This enhances consumer appeal, particularly for food products, and provides a cost-effective solution by increasing durability. For example, in August 2024, according to GOV.UK, a UK-based official government website, the taxable share of plastic packaging rose to 42% in 2023-2024, up from 41% in 2022-2023. Therefore, the growing use of HALS in packaging is driving market growth.

Major companies in the HALS market are focusing on high-performance light stabilizers to strengthen their market position. These stabilizers are chemical additives that protect materials such as polymers, plastics, and coatings from the damaging effects of UV radiation and other environmental factors like heat and oxidation. For instance, in March 2024, Clean Fino-Chem Limited, an India-based specialty chemicals manufacturer, began commercial production of its HALS series. This series, part of the performance chemicals category, targets both domestic and international markets and has a total installed capacity of 10,500 metric tons per year, enabling it to meet growing global demand across various applications.
