The India sodium chlorite market import shipments displayed robust growth from 2020 to 2024, with a notable CAGR of 24.4%. Although the growth rate slightly moderated between 2023 and 2024 to 5.0%, the market expansion trend remained strong, indicating a steady momentum in import demand for sodium chlorite during the period.
The sodium chlorite market in India is growing at a steady pace, driven by the increasing demand for sodium chlorite from diverse industries. The main end-use sectors of this chemical compound are water treatment and bleaching agents in the pulp and paper industry. Other industrial applications include textile processing, leather tanning, electroplating, waste water treatment, and disinfection of drinking water sources.
1. Growing demand for clean technology solutions - Sodium Chlorite is widely being used across several end-use industry verticals due to its capability of providing cost-effective cleaning results with minimal environmental impact. Thus this factor is driving its usage across India. 2. Expanding application scope ??? The rising significance of hygiene & sanitation practices resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic is further boosting the sodium chlorite market growth in India as it helps reduce bacteria and viruses from surfaces or air while ensuring greater safety standards at public places like hospitals etc. 3. Increasing R&D investments ??? Companies operating within the India sodium chlorite market are heavily investing in product development activities so as to meet the needs for high-quality products that can provide better efficiency with minimized operational costs associated with their utilization thus increasing its popularity amongst consumers.
1. High Initial Investment Costs ??? Setting up manufacturing plants capable of producing Sodium Chlorites involves heavy capital investments which put off potential manufacturers from entering into this business segment leading to limited availability of products in certain areas especially rural ones where they might be needed more often than urban centers generally do. 2. Toxicity risks associated with it??? Sodium Chlorites pose health hazards when not handled properly, hence there has been some reluctance among potential buyers towards using these chemicals despite its numerous advantages primarily due to fear-related concerns.
Some major companies present in India Sodium Chlorite Market include Akzo Nobel NV., Dow Chemical Company, Niacet Corporation, Solvay SA, Kemira Oyj, etc.
While most industries have taken a hit during the COVID-19 pandemic owing to countrywide lockdowns imposed since March 2025; however certain sectors including water treatment/ sanitization have seen an upsurge in their respective demands due largely on account of heightened focus on hygiene practices by the general population around the globe. This trend could offer promising prospects for players within the India Sodium Chloride sector who now need to capitalize on the same through efficient supply chain network management along with pricing strategy
