The chemical industry finds itself very much subject to world economic cycles i.e. demand rises and falls through times of economic growth and decline. The product range within the chemical industry is diverse ranging from raw materials, paints, film etc. With a large percentage of chemical products being used as raw materials for other processes this further amplifies the industry's susceptibility to national and world economic cycles.

The chemical industry however has to absorb pressure from certain areas. Notably:

1. Demand from consumers ensures that the chemical industry has to continually seek new products or processes in order to keep a competitive advantage.

2. Environmental pressures are forcing industry to adapt and innovate.

3. Global competition means that companies have to find more efficient ways to bring product to market.
