H1 2023: The prominent players in the North America Sodium Sulphate market in H1 2023 were Industrias Penoles S.A. de C.V and Saskatchewan Mining and Minerals Inc. During the first quarter of 2023, Sodium Sulphate experienced favourable market momentum in the North American market. The industrial production and sales of detergent and soaps industries witnessed improvement, contributing to increased demand for Sodium Sulphate and a rapid surge in pricing trends. Moreover, the available inventories were below the required levels to meet the demand, coupled with a delayed supply rate, resulting in an imbalance in the demand-supply ratio and consequently driving up the prices of Sodium Sulphate across North America. In the North American region, Sodium Sulphate prices experienced a marginal decline throughout the entire second quarter of 2023. This downturn was attributed to weakened demand from downstream sectors such as detergents and paper & pulp. Additionally, the pressure on costs from the feedstock sodium chloride remained subdued, with limited changes in demand observed from downstream industries. The deflation in Sodium Sulphate prices across North America was further supported by weak freight charges and declining feedstock costs, influenced by persistent declines in upstream Sulfuric acid market prices throughout Q2 2023.
The North America Sodium Sulphate market reached around 1650 thousand tonnes in 2022 and is expected to grow at a healthy CAGR of 2.51% till the year 2032.
Sodium Sulfate, also recognized as Glauber’s salt, stands as an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Na2SO4. It is predominantly sourced from nature, present in minerals like Thenardite and Mirabilite, while synthetic production involves treating sodium chloride with sulfuric acid. This hygroscopic salt, readily dissolving in water, manifests as a white crystalline solid or powder, serving as a key raw material in various industries. Notably, it plays a crucial role in glass manufacturing, acting as a fining agent to eliminate minute air bubbles from molten glass.
The soap and detergent industries are the primary catalysts for the Sodium Sulphate market, utilizing it as a filler in detergent powder to adjust the concentration of active ingredients and enhance flowability. In the past, Sodium Sulphate demand was driven by the Soaps & Detergents Industry, a trend expected to persist due to the growing emphasis on personal hygiene and cleaning practices. Furthermore, the rising demand for Sodium Sulphate in glass production for both commercial and domestic applications is poised to contribute significantly to its global demand. The versatility of Sodium Sulphate extends beyond detergents and glass, finding application in the manufacturing of various goods, including kraft paper, cardboard, and chemicals. Synthetically produced Sodium Sulphate also plays a crucial role in diverse industrial processes. As a multifaceted compound with extensive applications, Sodium Sulphate remains a cornerstone in multiple sectors, driving its global market dynamics. By 2032, the North America Sodium Sulphate market is likely to reach 2110 thousand tonnes.
On the basis of region, North America Sodium Sulphate market is segmented into USA, Mexico, and Canada. Among these, Mexico is the leading consumer of Sodium Sulphate. USA is the second largest customer and will most likely experience a rise of Sodium Sulphate in the coming years due to the continued demand from the downstream soap and detergent sectors.
Based on the end-user industry, the North America Sodium Sulphate market is segmented into Soaps & Detergents, Textile Industry, Paper & Pulp, Glass Industry, and Others. However, Soaps & Detergents is the major segment and consumed approximately 43% of the market in 2022. The cleaning agent within this compound facilitates the removal of stubborn stains and heavy-duty dirt without compromising fabric integrity. Acting as an excellent anti-caking agent, it prevents lump formation and enhances flowability. Additionally, it serves as a rust inhibitor when added to washing machines or dishwashers. Furthermore, as a bulking agent in detergent powders, it lowers apparent density and creates a denser foam, contributing to an improved washing experience.
Major players in the North America Sodium Sulphate market are North American Chemical Co, Ozark-Mahoning Co, Lenzing AG, Courtaulds North American Inc, FMC Corporation, F. Hoffmann-La Roche AG, J.M. Huber Corporation, Indspec Chemical Corp, North America Rayon Corp, Occidental Chemical Corp, Saskatchewan Mining and Minerals Inc., and Industrias Penoles S.A. de C.V
