Environmental & Regulatory Risks: Stringent environmental regulations and compliance costs, along with potential liabilities from chemical incidents.
Economic Cyclicality: Demand for many chemical products is tied to the broader economy and industrial output, making the business susceptible to economic downturns.
Intense Competition: Competition from domestic and international players can lead to pricing pressure and margin erosion.
