Global Sodium Calcium Hypochlorite Market Drivers and Application: Total Revenue is $585.14 Million in 2024

Global Sodium Calcium Hypochlorite Market Overview

According to Global Market Monitor, the global sodium-calcium hypochlorite market size will reach $585.14 million in 2024 with a CAGR of 3.26% from 2024 to 2029.

Calcium sodium hypochlorite is an inorganic compound used as a component of chlorine powder, bleaching powder, etc., widely used in the disinfection of swimming pools, water purification, and bleaching of textiles and paper. In water treatment applications, it is used as a bleach because it contains a lot of chlorine and is very stable.

Water Treatment is the Largest Applications Field.

The water treatment applications segment accounts for the largest revenue share and is expected to maintain its dominant position during the forecast period. This high share is attributed to the increased use of water treatment plant products. Sodium-calcium hypochloriteis widely used for laundry purposes, using its oxidizing properties to remove stains from fabrics. Due to its ability to remove harmful microorganisms, it is also used as an active ingredient in pesticides. It is used as a disinfectant in water tanks to control the growth of mold and is also widely used as an active ingredient in detergent, bleach, and dish detergent. The consumption of sodium calcium hypochlorite in house cleaners is growing rapidly because of its higher chlorine content and better stability.

In the early days, calcium hypochlorite was produced by the United States, Japan, and other developed countries in Europe. However, due to the impact of environmental protection policies, the production capacity of calcium hypochlorite in developed countries continued to decline, and the production capacity of calcium hypochlorite was shifted to developing countries. The production methods of calcium hypochlorite include calcium method and sodium method. Among them, calcium method calcium hypochlorite has overcapacity, while sodium method calcium hypochlorite still has room for growth and is the mainstream product. In terms of consumption, the current demand for calcium hypochlorite is mainly concentrated in the United States, Australia, Japan, Canada, Thailand, and other countries. The consumption of calcium hypochlorite in these countries accounts for about 70% of the total global consumption demand.

A Certain Degree of Danger 

The main disadvantage of using calcium hypochlorite is the need to store chemicals properly to prevent any possible contact with heat or moisture. If calcium hypochlorite comes into contact with any of these, even a small amount, it will cause explosions, fires, and the release of highly toxic chlorine gas. In addition, if the chemical is exposed to the fire, it will cause the fire to increase dramatically. Calcium hypochlorite must always be stored in a dry, well-ventilated, and cool place.
