Sri Lanka iodine market experienced a -6.25% import trend from 2023 to 2024, with a 5.41% CAGR from 2020 to 2024. This decline in imports could be attributed to shifting demand patterns or changes in trade policies impacting the market dynamics.
Sri Lanka's Iodine market is anticipated to experience a high growth rate of 10.43% by 2027, reflecting trends observed in the largest economy China, followed by India, Japan, Australia and South Korea.

The Sri Lankan iodine market is expanding as iodine finds diverse applications in pharmaceuticals, nutrition, and industrial processes. Iodine compounds are essential in the production of pharmaceuticals, X-ray contrast media, and disinfectants. The market growth is supported by the healthcare sector`s demand for iodine supplements and the expanding industrial applications requiring high-purity iodine.
In Sri Lanka, the Iodine market is driven by its critical role in pharmaceuticals, nutrition, and industrial applications. Key drivers include the growing demand for iodine-based products in healthcare (e.g., thyroid treatments), increasing use in food fortification programs, and industrial applications such as catalysts and LCD displays, supporting market growth.
Challenges in Sri Lanka iodine market include sourcing iodine at competitive prices, ensuring purity and quality standards in iodine products, and addressing regulatory compliance and public health concerns related to iodine deficiency and excess.
In the healthcare sector, Sri Lanka has implemented policies to address iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) through iodized salt programs and dietary supplements. Government initiatives promote universal salt iodization (USI) to ensure adequate iodine intake among the population. Regulatory frameworks monitor the production, distribution, and consumption of iodized salt, ensuring compliance with national health standards. Public awareness campaigns and educational programs are conducted to inform the public about the importance of iodine in preventing IDD, aligning with global health initiatives.
