World Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK) Consumption to Grow at an Average Annual Rate of 1.9% According to Recently Updated Report at MarketPublishers.com

LONDON, April 6, 2010 - World Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK) consumption is forecast to
grow at an average annual rate of 1.9% during 2010-2014. Most of that growth
will come from Asia Pacific. Due to the global recession, consumption
contracted significantly in the developed regions, particularly in 2009. MEK
consumption may increase modestly during 2011-2014 in the developed regions
as it tries to regain some lost volume.

Coating solvents continue to consume the majority of MEK.
Worldwide, around 50% of MEK was consumed for this application in 2009. There
will be little change in the world MEK market breakdown by 2014. However,
there are slight regional variations. Although printing inks make up only 10%
of the MEK market, this application will experience the highest growth rate
during 2010-2014, especially in China.
