Europe: In Europe, cyclohexane prices fell sharply as demand from the nylon and adipic acid sectors slowed. Reduced activity in the automotive and textile industries limited downstream consumption, while ample supply levels exerted additional pressure. The cyclohexane price index reflected weak procurement activity across regional buyers, with easing feedstock benzene costs further weighing on market fundamentals.
India: In India, cyclohexane prices increased significantly, supported by strong demand from the nylon intermediates sector. Expanding end-use consumption in textiles and packaging reinforced procurement activity, while limited domestic availability created tighter supply conditions. The cyclohexane price index highlighted sustained downstream requirements, and higher import costs added to the bullish pricing environment during this quarter.
Northeast Asia: In Northeast Asia, cyclohexane prices softened slightly due to limited downstream activity in the nylon and construction sectors. Ample benzene feedstock availability kept production levels high, contributing to oversupply conditions. The cyclohexane price index mirrored weak demand from end-user industries, particularly in textiles and automotive applications. Export orders also slowed, restricting price recovery momentum. Despite marginal procurement from select industrial buyers, the overall sentiment leaned toward cautious buying.
Middle East: In the Middle East, cyclohexane prices fell sharply as muted demand from downstream nylon intermediates weighed heavily on market performance. Abundant benzene feedstock ensured steady production levels, creating oversupply in regional markets. The cyclohexane price index reflected reduced traction in export destinations, with limited demand from Asia further pressuring producers. Additionally, cautious procurement by converters and distributors limited price stabilization efforts, reinforcing a bearish market environment.
Southeast Asia: In Southeast Asia, cyclohexane prices declined considerably due to weak industrial consumption in textiles, automotive, and plastics. Ample regional availability, coupled with sustained feedstock supplies, led to excess inventories across key hubs. The cyclohexane price index dropped as lackluster export demand and subdued domestic consumption further reduced market activity. Downstream manufacturers operated at cautious run rates, adding to the downward momentum in pricing. The weak import-export balance also exacerbated bearish trends.
North America: In North America, cyclohexane prices surged as robust demand from the nylon and coatings industries supported procurement activity. Tighter supply conditions, driven by scheduled plant turnarounds, added upward pressure to the cyclohexane price index. Strong downstream consumption from automotive and textiles also bolstered market sentiment. Additionally, limited imports coupled with higher freight costs constrained availability, amplifying the bullish pricing trend across the region.

The factors affecting cyclohexane pricing, such as the dynamics of supply and demand, geopolitical influences, and sector-specific developments, are thoroughly explored. This comprehensive report helps stakeholders stay informed with the latest market news, regulatory updates, and technological progress, facilitating informed strategic decision-making and forecasting.
The global cyclohexane industry size reached USD 27.46 Billion in 2024. By 2033, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 43.33 Billion, at a projected CAGR of 4.94% during 2025-2033. Growth is driven by the increasing demand for cyclohexane as a precursor for adipic acid and caprolactam, which are key inputs for nylon production, supported by expansion in the automotive, textiles, and packaging industries.
Cyclohexane is a colorless, flammable liquid hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C₆H₁₂. It is primarily produced through the hydrogenation of benzene and is valued for its role as an intermediate in the chemical industry. The majority of cyclohexane is used in the production of adipic acid and caprolactam, which are essential precursors for nylon 6 and nylon 6,6. These materials are extensively utilized in textiles, automotive components, packaging, and engineering plastics. Cyclohexane also finds applications as an industrial solvent and in the production of coatings, adhesives, and other specialty chemicals. With favorable physical properties, including low solubility in water and good stability, cyclohexane remains a critical petrochemical feedstock supporting various downstream industries globally.
