What country is the leading producer of chemicals?

Chemicals is a leading global industry that touches almost every other industry on one way or another. In 2022, China was the leading producer of chemicals, accounting for over 30% of global chemical output.

China is also a leading market for chemicals. Though sales were challenged in 2021 by ongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, the market recovered in 2022. Going forward, sales are expected to increase but at a slower pace as companies look to shift manufacturing to other countries with lower production costs and fewer workforce disruptions.
