Further, with decreasing social stigma regarding mesturation, especially in India, consumers are extensively using high quality sanitary napkins. Hence, manufacturers eyeing the India market and are using petroleum-based super absorbent polymers for the production.

Growing need for eco-friendly goods, such as bio-based super absorbent polymers (SAP), to reduce environmental impact is expected to boost market demand. SAPs are then utilized to replace petrochemical-based polymers used in disposable diapers, such as sodium polyacrylate and potassium polyacrylate. With these variables in place, the demand for super absorbent polymers is projected to open up attractive opportunities for market growth.

Key Takeaways:

  • The global consumption of super absorbent polymers is expected to grow at a 4.9% CAGR to US$ 9.7 billion by 2032.
  • In terms of type, due to strict rules prohibiting the use of single-use plastic, the petroleum-based super absorbent polymers category is expected to account for 92% of the market.
  • Based on application, the hygiene and personal care divisions are expected to dominate the industry, offering a US$3.2 billion potential by 2032.
  • East Asia and South Asia & Oceania are estimated to provide absolute $ opportunities of US$ 830 million and US$ 627 million, respectively.
  • Over 30% of superabsorbent polymers sales are expected to come from personal care & hygiene sector

Growth Drivers:

  • The market will benefit from increased investment in the development of renewable resources such as super absorbent polymers.
  • The rising use of urinary incontinence products among the elderly is predicted to drive demand for absorbent diapers, creating growth opportunities for highly absorbent polymers.

Restraints:

  • Strict government regulations pertaining to the use of single-use plastic are expected to hinder sales of synthetic super absorbent polymers.
  • Volatile raw material prices, such as acrylic acid and caustic soda, are expected to limit market sales.

Competitive Landscape:

The global super absorbent polymers (SAP) market is competitive, with leading players offering technologically superior SAP-based solutions. Due to increased demand, leading manufacturers are focused on collaborations with large distributors and stepping up their existing production capacity.

Numerous manufacturers are achieving this by expanding their international subsidiaries. Furthermore, corporations are heavily spending on R&D to give improved and creative goods to clients for a variety of uses.

For instance,

  • In November 2020, Nippon Shokubai, LiveDo Corporation (Japan), and Total Care System (Japan) jointly have been developing various technologies to promote systems that recycle disposable diapers, the use of which continues to increase. These three companies have recently developed new recycling technologies for super absorbent polymers in used diapers. The technology can be applied to a wide variety of super absorbent polymers distributed worldwide.
  • In September 2019, LG Chem and Archer Daniels Midland Company collaborated to produce bio-based acrylic acid, a basic material for the production of ultra-absorbent polymers.
