Lignin is an organic substance which is apolymer of phenyl propylene. It is a complex polymer. It is extracted from plant tissues which binds the cells, fibers and vessels together. Lignin has major applications such as concrete additives, binders, bitumen and adhesives, as it acts as an excellent binding agent. Lignin has various other end uses which include animal feeds, phenols and vanillin. It acts fundamental integral in concrete additives. Owing to its natural oxidant property lignin is used in cosmetics. Lignin by-products are widely used in personal care products which include skin decorative products. 

Lignin market volume is expected to surpass 18 million tons during the forecasted period. The global lignin market anticipated to reach USD 6.0 billion in the forecast period. Kraft lignin market volume is anticipated to surpass125 kilo tons by 2021, with market size exceeding USD 5 billion. North America dominates the global lignin market owing to increasing demand for concrete and cement. Europe is second largest market for lignin owing to rise in demand for lignin in end-use industry.
