Cardanol, the bio-based phenolic compound derived from cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL), has graduated from a niche green-chemistry curiosity to a mainstream industrial raw material. Its unique chemistry—a phenolic hydroxyl group paired with a long unsaturated hydrocarbon chain—delivers performance characteristics that petrochemical-derived phenols simply cannot replicate at the same price point. For exporters and chemical traders, this translates into a fast-expanding global buyer base. The challenge, however, lies in mapping that base accurately: which countries import, which companies buy, and at what volumes and prices. This definitive guide analyzes the cardanol trade landscape, identifying the top importing countries and active corporate buyers, unpacking regional demand drivers, and offering advanced B2B…
