The demand for peracetic acid continues to be strong because of its adaptability and efficiency in multiple end-use sectors. It offers a pure, effective, and eco-friendly substitute for standard chlorine-based disinfectants and oxidizers. In the food & beverage industry, peracetic acid is extensively utilized for sanitizing equipment, packaging surfaces, and processing environments to maintain microbial safety. In the healthcare field, it is essential for disinfecting surgical tools, surfaces, and medical equipment, especially because of its wide-ranging antimicrobial properties. Peracetic acid is employed by the pharmaceutical and electronics sectors for disinfection in cleanrooms, where maintaining high hygiene standards is crucial. Additionally, its use in wastewater treatment has expanded considerably, as it successfully removes pathogens without producing harmful byproducts. In the agriculture and construction industries, it serves environmental sanitation and biosecurity functions. As regulatory attention on sustainability, public health, and hygiene intensifies, the peracetic acid market is set for robust and lasting growth during the forecast period.

The water treatment industry, by end-use industry segment, is expected to register the highest CAGR in terms of value of the peracetic acid market during the forecast period.

The water treatment industry is expected to achieve the highest compound annual growth rate (CAGR) in the peracetic acid market throughout the forecast period. This swift expansion is mainly fueled by heightened worldwide apprehensions regarding water contamination, growing needs for clean and safe water, and strict environmental laws designed to minimize the use of harmful disinfectants such as chlorine. Peracetic acid is increasingly popular in municipal and industrial wastewater treatment due to its high oxidation capacity, quick biodegradability, and effectiveness in removing various pathogens without generating toxic byproducts. Its efficiency at low levels and compatibility with different treatment systems renders it an excellent option for sustainable water purification. Increasing investments in water infrastructure, especially in developing countries throughout Asia Pacific and Latin America, are intensifying demand. As regulatory agencies tighten standards for water quality and discharge limits, the use of peracetic acid in water treatment is anticipated to speed up, positioning it as the fastest-growing end-use segment in the industry.

The 5–15% grade segment holds the largest share in terms of volume in the overall peracetic acid market during the forecast period.

The segment with a 5–15% grade has accounted for the highest volume share in the peracetic acid market throughout the forecast period. This concentration range is commonly favored because it offers an ideal balance of effectiveness and safety, making it appropriate for various applications. It is widely utilized in sectors like food & beverage, healthcare, and water treatment, where efficient microbial management is crucial without resulting in material deterioration or threatening the safety of workers. Its efficacy as a surface disinfectant and equipment sanitizer, combined with its advantageous handling characteristics, leads to its widespread use. Regulatory authorizations for this concentration in food processing and sanitation methods have additionally increased demand. Moreover, the 5–15% concentration is regarded as economical for regular disinfection activities, facilitating broad application in both industrial and institutional environments. With the increasing global standards for hygiene and environmental safety, this grade is anticipated to retain its leading position in volume share throughout the forecast period.
