SODIUM HEXAMETAPHOSPHATE MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW

The global sodium hexametaphosphate market size is predicted to reach USD 0.8 billion by 2033 from USD 0.66 billion in 2024, registering a CAGR of 2.4% during the forecast period from 2025 to 2033.

Sodium hexametaphosphate (SHMP) is a water-soluble, white powder that is used in a variety of industrial and commercial applications. It is a salt of composition Na6[(PO3)6]. It is a complex polyphosphate glass that is produced by a thermal process from soda ash and food-grade phosphoric acid.

It is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in food and beverage applications. However, it is important to note that some countries have regulations that restrict its use in food and beverage applications.

COVID-19 IMPACT

"Pandemic Decreased the Market Demand"

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the sodium hexametaphosphate market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the sodium hexametaphosphate market share. The lockdown measures implemented by governments around the world to contain the spread of the virus have led to the shutdown of businesses and factories. This has led to a decrease in demand for it in various industries, such as the food and beverage industry, where it is used as a thickener, emulsifier, and preservative. The economic slowdown caused by the pandemic has led to reduced consumer spending. This has also had a negative impact on the demand for it, as it is used in many consumer products, such as detergents and cleaners. The disruption in the global supply chain due to the pandemic has also made it difficult for manufacturers to get the raw materials they need to produce it. This has also led to a decrease in the supply of the product and an increase in prices.

LATEST TRENDS

"Increasing demand in water treatment applications is expected to fuel the growth in the market"

It is a water-soluble polymer that has a chelating effect. This means that it can form complexes with metal ions, such as calcium and magnesium. These metal ions are responsible for water hardness, which can cause scale buildup and other problems in water pipes and appliances. It can help to remove these metal ions from water, making it softer and less likely to cause problems. The increasing demand for clean and safe drinking water is driving the growth of the market in water treatment applications. This is because It can help to improve the quality of drinking water by removing hardness, scale, and other impurities. It can also help to prevent the growth of bacteria and algae in water.

DRIVING FACTORS

"Increasing demand for clean and safe drinking water to foster the market growth"

The increasing demand for clean and safe drinking water is one of the major driving factors of the market. This is because it is used in water treatment products to remove hardness, scale, and other impurities from water. Hard water can cause scale buildup in pipes and appliances, which can lead to leaks and other problems. It can help to prevent scale buildup by forming complexes with metal ions, such as calcium and magnesium. This makes the water softer and less likely to cause problems. In addition to removing hardness, it can also help to prevent the growth of bacteria and algae in water. This is important because bacteria and algae can make water unsafe to drink. It can also help to improve the taste of water by removing chlorine and other impurities.

"Rising awareness about the diseases and their treatment options to result in the expansion of the market"

The increasing demand for processed foods is another major driving factor of the market. It is used in processed foods as a thickener, emulsifier, and preservative. As people become busier and eat out more often, the demand for processed foods is increasing. It helps to keep processed foods moist and prevents them from spoiling. It also helps to improve the texture and flavor of processed foods. The development of new applications for It, such as in the cosmetics and pharmaceuticals industries and increasing use in the textile industry to improve the quality of fabrics are also contributing to the market growth.

RESTRAINING FACTOR

"Environmental concerns to hamper the market growth"

The production can release harmful pollutants into the environment. These pollutants can include heavy metals, such as lead and mercury, as well as organic compounds, such as phosgene. These pollutants can pollute air, water, and soil, and can have a negative impact on human health and the environment.
