Global Styrene Acrylonitrile Market Analysis and Forecast 2025 – 2035

The Global Styrene Acrylonitrile Market Size was valued at around USD 2.68 Billion in 2024 and is predicted to grow to around USD 4.15 Billion by 2035 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.06 % from 2025 to 2035. The growing need for long-lasting plastics, the expansion of the automotive and electronics sectors, the use of lightweight materials, improved chemical resistance, and growing consumer goods manufacturing applications all present opportunities for the Styrene Acrylonitrile Market Size.

Market Overview

The global industry that produces, distributes, and uses styrene-acrylonitrile copolymer, a stiff, clear thermoplastic resin made from roughly 70–80% styrene and 20–30% acrylonitrile monomers, is known as the styrene acrylonitrile (SAN) market. The copolymerization of acrylonitrile with styrene produces SAN, a polymer that combines the enhanced chemical resistance and thermal stability of acrylonitrile with the clarity and ease of processing of styrene. Suppliers of raw materials, producers of polymers, distributors, compounders, and end-user industries are all included in the Styrene Acrylonitrile Market Size. In January 2024, environmental approval was granted to Bhansali Engineering Polymers in India to increase SAN-related manufacturing to 25,000 TPA in addition to ABS. In September 2025, Supreme Petrochem Ltd. launched a related ABS line in Maharashtra at 70,000 TPA, which has SAN implications. The market for styrene acrylonitrile is expanding due to the healthcare industry's need for sterile and transparent packaging materials for medications and medical equipment.
