2025年全球螯合剂市场规模达65亿美元。展望未来,IMARC集团预测,到2034年,该市场规模将达到86亿美元,2026年至2034年的复合年增长率为3.06%。市场成长的主要驱动因素包括:全球对螯合疗法作为一种医疗手段的认知度不断提高、个人对环境问题的日益关注以及各种工业应用领域需求的不断扩大。

螯合剂市场趋势

该产品在清洁方面的使用量增加

螯合剂广泛应用于清洁领域。它们在清洁过程中能有效防止硬水中矿物质的干扰,进而促进了各种含螯合剂清洁产品的研发。此外,使用螯合剂生产的肥皂和清洁剂有助于防止金属变色和漂白剂过早分解。随着人们对个人和生活空间卫生意识的不断提高,全球清洁剂生产商正寻求抓住家用清洁产品需求激增的机会。例如,2022年5月,拥有Aerial和Tide等品牌的宝洁公司(P&G)投资20亿印度卢比在海德拉巴兴建了一座液体清洁剂生产厂。此外,根据美国劳工统计局的数据,2022年美国家庭在肥皂和清洁剂上的平均年支出约为85.37美元,年增6%。因此,预计未来几年对清洁产品的需求将推动螯合剂市场的发展。

人们对水质和环境永续性的认识不断提高

消费者和工业界对水质和环境永续性重要性的认识不断提高,推动了螯合剂作为去除金属离子和处理污水的环保解决方案的应用。此外,世界各地的政府机构都在使用螯合剂净化水体和控制水污染,进一步促进了螯合剂市场的发展。例如,印度政府的「清洁恆河计画」(Namami Gange)和「饮用水生命线计画」(Jal Jeevan Mission)正在推动对水处理基础设施的投资,从而促进市场成长。同样,美国政府的《安全饮用水法案》(SDWA)制定了饮用水水质标准,并监督各州、地方政府和供水事业执行这些标准。为此,许多参与企业污水处理市场的公司正在扩大业务。例如,2022年6月,专注于水环境管理的环保公司中国光大水务管理有限公司订单山东省张店东化工产业园区某工业污水处理厂的扩建与维修计划。

不断扩张的建筑业

螯合剂在建筑业中被广泛用于改善混凝土的可加工性、耐久性和性能。它们有助于控制养护时间、减少用水量,并提高水泥建筑物的强度和抗化学侵蚀能力。近期螯合剂市场价格上涨预计将受到全球住宅和商业建设计划数量不断增长的推动。例如,福布斯全球房地产宣布了在孟买、德里和果阿的房地产计划开发计划。除了私人企业外,各国政府也在投资智慧家庭的开发,这进一步推动了建筑业的发展,并为螯合剂市场带来了良好的前景。例如,沙乌地阿拉伯住宅部宣布了在「2030愿景」下建造30万套住宅的计画。此外,2023年11月,塔塔集团的完全子公司塔塔房地产与基础设施公司宣布计划在印度、斯里兰卡和马尔地夫的主要城市开展50多个计划,以拓展其业务。这些计划的开发潜力超过5100万平方英尺。建筑业的这种显着扩张预计将在未来几年提升螯合剂的市场份额。

Chelating Agents Market Trends:

Increasing Product Utilization in Cleaning Applications

Chelating agents are widely used in cleaning applications. A variety of cleaning formulations are derived using chelating agents owing to their vital role in preventing interference in the cleaning process from the minerals present in hard water. In addition to this, soaps and detergents manufactured using chelating agents facilitate the prevention of metal staining as well as the premature decomposition of bleaching agents. Moreover, the rising consciousness for hygiene maintenance in personal and surrounding spaces is prompting various global detergent manufacturing companies to tap into the surging demand for domestic cleaning formulations. For instance, in May 2022, Proctor & Gamble (P&G), the manufacturer of brands like Aerial and Tide, invested INR 2 billion in the construction of a liquid detergent manufacturing plant in Hyderabad. Besides this, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average annual expenditures for soaps and detergents in the United States amounted to roughly US$ 85.37 per consumer unit in 2022, reflecting an increase of 6% compared to the previous year. As a result, the demand for cleaning agents is anticipated to propel the chelating agents market demand in the coming years.

Growing Awareness of Water Quality and Environmental Sustainability

Rising awareness among consumers and industries about the importance of water quality and environmental sustainability is driving the adoption of chelating agents as eco-friendly solutions for metal ion removal and wastewater treatment. Moreover, various government authorities across the world are taking initiatives to clean water bodies and control water pollution which is further propelling the chelating agents market revenue. For instance, initiatives such as the National Mission for Clean Ganga (Namami Gange) and the Jal Jeevan Mission by the Indian government have spurred investments in water treatment infrastructure, thereby bolstering the market growth. Similarly, the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), passed by the U.S. government, outlines the standards for drinking water quality and monitors states, local authorities, and water suppliers who enforce those standards. In response to this, various wastewater treatment market players are expanding their operations. For instance, in June 2022, China Everbright Water, an environmental protection company that focuses on water environment management, secured the expansion and upgrading project of the Zhangdian East Chemical Industry Park Industrial Wastewater Treatment in Zibo City, Shandong Province.

Expanding Construction Industry

Chelating agents are utilized in the construction industry to improve the workability, durability, and performance of concrete. They help in controlling the setting time, reducing water requirements, and enhancing the strength and resistance to chemical attacks of concrete structures. The rising number of residential and commercial construction projects across the world is anticipated to propel the chelating agents market's recent price. For instance, Forbes Global Properties announced its plans to develop real estate projects in Mumbai, Delhi, and Goa. Apart from the private players, government authorities of various countries are also investing in the development of smart homes, which is further bolstering the construction industry, thereby creating a positive outlook for the chelating agents market. For instance, the Housing Ministry of Saudi Arabia announced its plan to build 300,000 housing units under the Vision 2030. Moreover, in November 2023, Tata Realty and Infrastructure, a wholly owned subsidiary of Tata Sons, announced its plans to grow its business with more than 50 projects in major cities in India, Sri Lanka, and the Maldives. The projects have a development potential of more than 51 million square feet. Such a significant expansion in the construction industry is projected to propel the chelating agents market share in the coming years.

Global Chelating Agents Industry Segmentation:

Sodium gluconate represents the largest market share

Sodium gluconate is a chelating agent derived from gluconic acid and is primarily used as a sequestering agent in the construction industry. Additionally, the rising adoption of sodium gluconate, as it aids in enhancing workability, inhibiting corrosion of reinforcement, and improving the strength and durability of concrete structures, is propelling the growth of the market. Additionally, the upcoming real estate projects are bolstering the application of chelating agents. For instance, in March 2024, Mahindra Lifespaces acquired 9.4 acres of land in Bengaluru for a housing project. In the same month, Shriram Properties launched a new residential project in Bengaluru with a project revenue potential of Rs 350 crore. Such a significant growth in the construction sector is anticipated to propel the adoption of sodium gluconate, thereby augmenting the chelating agents market recent opportunities.
