Calcium Hypochlorite Market (By Process: Calcium Process, Sodium Process & Others. By Application: Detergents, Agrochemicals, House Cleaners, Water Treatment, Food and Beverages, Textiles & Others. By Region) - Global Industry Analysis, Growth, Trends & Forecast, 2022 to 2032

Published Date : January 2023 | Report Id : CHM 191 | Format : PDF,PPT | Slides : 180
Report Type : Syndicate Report

The global calcium hypochlorite market was valued at $590.4 million in 2021 and it is expected to reach $870.5 million at a CAGR of 3.6% between 2022 and 2032. Rising product demand from several end-user applications, including detergents, home cleansers, food & drinks, pulp & paper, and water treatment, among others, is what propels the market. The substance is increasingly being used in these applications to successfully cleanse and purify the systems.

By region, Asia-Pacific has led the market over the past few years with significant share. 

Chlorine powder, bleaching powder, and other commercial goods all contain calcium hypochlorite as an active component. Calcium hypochlorite is mostly utilized as a bleaching agent in water treatment applications. An inorganic substance called calcium hypochlorite is found as a white, granular solid. Since calcium hypochlorite contains a lot of chlorine, its scent is comparable to that of chlorine.

In addition, known commercially as bleaching powder, calcium hypochlorite is an inorganic substance with a white tint that is widely used as a bleaching agent. When maintained in damp air, it slowly decomposes and gives off a strong, recognizable chlorine odor. Calcium hydroxide or slaked lime is processed with chlorine gas to create calcium hypochlorite for industrial use. Additionally, it is employed in workplaces, medical facilities, and private residences to get rid of any bacteria or viruses that might be around. Drinking water is frequently purified with it as well.

The necessity for clean, safe drinking water and the rise in water-borne disease fatalities around the world have both been significant factors in the expansion of the global calcium hypochlorite market. Calcium hypochlorite, the primary component of bleaching powder, is frequently used in water treatment facilities to purify drinking water. Currently, desalination and wastewater recycling are regarded as two of the main sources of usable fresh water. The demand for calcium hypochlorite for the water treatment processes has increased due to the rapid growth of desalination facilities in different nations. Additionally, calcium hypochlorite is frequently used in detergents and cleaners for hygienic and cleaning purposes.

Investments made by participants in the calcium hypochlorite market will go toward acquiring new technologies, obtaining raw materials, effective procurement and inventory management, strengthening product portfolios, and utilizing capabilities to sustain growth in difficult economic times. However, one of the main obstacles to comprehending and assessing the Calcium Hypochlorite market scenario is the unequal recovery in various end markets and regions.

Based on process type, the sodium process segment accounted for the largest share of this market and is anticipated to propel the market growth during the forecast period from 2022 to 2032. The increased demand for calcium hypochlorite, which has a high chlorine concentration and quickly absorbs moisture, is to blame for this high share. It is a chemical substance that can be made using both the sodium and calcium processes. However, the calcium process segment is also increasing in demand. The primary usage of calcium hypochlorite, produced through the calcium process, is the bleaching of textiles like silk, cotton, and paper. 

In terms of application type, the water treatment segment accounted for the highest share of this market. Moreover, with the aid of its oxidizing properties, it is frequently used in laundry to remove stains from fabrics. As a result of its capacity to eliminate hazardous microorganisms, it is also utilized as an active component in insecticides. It serves as a sanitizer in tanks to prevent the growth of mold. Along with other things, it is frequently employed as an active component in scouring powders, bleach, and dishwashing solutions. Due to excellent government initiatives and the repair of wastewater treatment facilities, this segment has also seen the fastest growth throughout the same period. 

Geographically, the Asia-Pacific region has led the market growth and is also anticipated to hold its dominant position over the forecast period. The market in this area is projected to be driven by the escalating demand from end-use sectors like water treatment, household cleansers, and agrochemicals. Additionally, this is largely attributable to the region's rapid expansion of commodities, incredible in-house production, expanding water treatment projects, and the widespread presence of important manufacturers. On the other hand, due to the vast production bases of calcium hypochlorite manufacturer’s worldwide, growing demand for disinfection, and the existence of cutting-edge manufacturing advances, the North American area is also anticipated to become the second-largest market throughout the projected period. The demand for the product is influenced by the growing number of homes in North America with swimming pools. Additionally, the North American regional market is being driven by the quickly expanding disinfection and textile applications in Canada and Mexico.
