A fire in Akola district destroyed stored dry sugarcane bagasse at a Thermax Bio Energy Solutions facility. Although the main biogas plant was unaffected, the loss of bagasse stock may tighten local supply and support higher prices.

Stay updated with the latest Furfuryl Alcohol prices, historical data, and tailored regional analysis
The prices of furfuryl alcohol witnessed an upward trend during Q1’26 as a result of rising costs of upstream materials and stable demand from end-use markets. As furfural is extracted from corn cobs, the rise in corn prices in China caused an increase in the cost of manufacturing, which resulted in a higher price for furfuryl alcohol. The upstream market gradually moved up during the quarter because of a tight supply and stable demand for the feedstock, resulting in higher costs of production of furfural and its derivatives. In terms of supply, a steady processing volume, along with the absence of low-priced raw material sources, supported prices in the market. Demand remained stable from key sectors including foundry binders, resins, and chemical intermediates, where procurement was largely based on essential requirements, maintaining consistent offtake.
Analyst Insight
According to Procurement Resource, furfuryl alcohol prices are likely to remain firm, supported by elevated corn-based feedstock costs, though any stabilization in corn supply may moderate further price increases.

In Asia, Furfuryl Alcohol prices stayed mostly stable during the second half of 2025. Local production was supported by steady hydrogen supply, which helped keep production costs under control. In some countries, new policies encouraged cleaner production methods, slightly lowering costs for manufacturers. Demand from foundries, resins, and coatings remained steady, and import levels were moderate. Overall, supply and demand were balanced, so prices did not change much.
In Europe, prices were slightly soft but steady. Investments in production capacity continued, but higher energy costs in some regions kept overall prices in check. Buyers in industrial and chemical sectors were cautious, purchasing only what they needed for short-term use. Hydrogen availability remained stable, helping producers maintain operations, though construction delays for new plants limited any major expansion.
In North America, prices were stable with minor upward pressure. Hydrogen supply for production was sufficient, supporting consistent output. Demand from industrial sectors, including adhesives and resins, stayed moderate, and long-term contracts helped maintain price levels. Supply competition with imports did not create major volatility.
Furfuryl Alcohol is a chemical molecule having a furan substituted with a hydroxymethyl group. Although the liquid is colourless, ageing samples appear amber. It has a little burning odour and a harsh flavour. It is miscible in water yet unstable. It can be dissolved in most organic solvents.

Hydrogenation of hydrogen and furfural produces furfuryl alcohol. Furfuryl alcohol is produced after furfural and hydrogen are sent to a hydrogenation reactor. The furfural residue is returned to the reactor for further processing.
