The global phosphate market was valued at USD 12,696.0 million in 2021 and is projected to reach USD 18,727.6 million by 2030 at a CAGR of 4.59%.
Phosphate is a natural resource found under the earth’s surface, where it is exploited to use in multiple agricultural and industrial activities. The global phosphate market has been segmented into five types: ammonium/phosphoric acid, calcium, potassium, sodium, and others.
The rapid spread of COVID-19 is causing significant disruption to a wide range of industries across the globe. Some of the major petrochemical end-users include the packaging, automotive & transportation, building & construction, and electrical & electronics industries. As these industries come under essential services, the impact of COVID-19 was not as worse as other industries.
The outbreak of COVID-19 has significantly impacted the chemicals & materials supply chains, mining operations, international trade, and manufacturing processes across the world. As a result of a lockdown across geographies, the production facilities have faced disruptions. The market players have had to shut production facilities or operate the facilities below the optimal production capacities to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Plastics, the most well-known group of petrochemical goods, have outperformed all other bulk materials in terms of demand (such as steel, aluminum, or cement). More than half of ammonia is turned to urea, which is primarily utilized as a fertilizer to raise agricultural yields and food production worldwide. The industry value pool fell in 2019 due to major capacity increases and slower demand growth. The pandemic, which began in 2020, has accelerated this decline. The crucial need for developing the effective treatment for COVID-19 during the year 2020 resulted in high demand for chromatographic techniques, thus, having a positive impact on the global market.
In contrast, polyethylene players (which make products such as plastic containers for milk, motor oil, and shampoos) remained robust. On the other hand, several chemical manufacturers modified their existing factories to satisfy the rising demand for isopropyl alcohol and ethanol.
The global phosphate market is studied across the five key regions, North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa.
Asia-Pacific dominated the global market with a share in 2021 and is projected to register the highest CAGR by the end of 2030. This growth is driven by various factors, such as the rising demand for ammonium phosphate for manufacturing fertilizers in major economies like China, India, Indonesia, and Thailand.
Furthermore, Latin America held the second-largest market share due to the upsurge in demand for nutritious food products health-conscious people who have started adopting a healthy lifestyle. In the same line, growing health awareness and physical fitness concerns among buyers in this region are expected to boost the demand for nutritious food products, which will result in the growth of the regional market during the review period.
North America holds the third-largest share in the global phosphate market due to the escalating demand for ammonium phosphate in the food & beverages industry. The manufacturers present in North America are majorly focusing on investment and expansion activities to increase their share in the global market. Moreover, the European region is expected to show promising growth during the forecast period due to the increasing demand for phosphate in countries like Germany, Poland, and France, especially in the agricultural sector. Moreover, the growth of the soap and detergent industry in the European region is propelling the growth of the phosphate market.
The competitive landscape offers an analysis of the key developments by the companies operating in the global market in the last three years. The global phosphate market is anticipated to register a healthy CAGR during the forecast period, owing to the growing demand for phosphate as fertilizers and in waste-water treatment.
