How have Growing Concerns over Phosphate Based Detergents boded for Zeolites for Detergent?

Phosphates, such as, sodium tripolyphosphate and sodium pyrophosphate, among others, are used as builders in detergents. Use of phosphate compounds in detergents enhance their performance by softening water, through ion exchange (calcium, magnesium ions, etc.).

However, this growth in the use of phosphates in detergents and its discharge in wastewater as well as natural water is leading to several environmental effects, such as eutrophication of surface water bodies, etc.

Thus, in order to avoid eutrophication, governments of several countries have limited or banned the use of phosphates in detergents. As zeolites are an alternative to phosphate detergent builders, the demand for zeolites for detergent is increasing all over the globe. Thus, stringent regulations regarding phosphate-based detergents, will in turn, help to drive the zeolites market over the forecast period.

What was the Impact of COVID-19 Crisis on Zeolite for Detergent Business?

Covid-19 pandemic had put a dent on the chemical industry, which is expected to get the recovery in second half of 2021. Several production facilities in many countries were entirely shut down because of the lockdown, which had a direct impact on sales of zeolite for detergent.

However, the pandemic led to the products used in households soaring high. Zeolite for detergent was increasingly used in households in the pandemic as a replacement to phosphate type builders.

As numerous production facilities have reopened, the industry is progressively rebounding from losses, resulting in positive sales prospects for detergent zeolite. Increasing prospects of zeolite A for use in detergents as a detergent builder are also expected to boost demand for the zeolites in the forthcoming years.

Category-wise Insights

Why are Sales of Zeolite A Increasing?

Sales of zeolite A for detergent is expected to grow at a moderate growth rate of 2.8% CAGR, over the forecast period of 2022 to 2028. Zeolite A for detergent is becoming a preferred product type with future projections of the market indicating a higher demand for the same in the coming years.

This increase in sales can be attributed to the profound use of zeolite 4A as a detergent builder and as a key substitute for sodium tripolyphosphate across the globe. Zeolite A for detergent can be permeated by ions or small molecules owing to its crystalline structure. Owing to these factors, sales of zeolite A for detergent are projected to increase over the forecast period.

Why are Sales of Zeolite X and AX for Detergent Continuing to Gain Traction in near future?

Among product types, zeolite X and AX segment is projected to create an absolute dollar opportunity of more than US$ 32.3 Mn during the period of 2022 to 2028, and owing to its significant characteristics for the production of detergents.

Generally, pore size of zeolite X is around 0.74 nm, which is larger than zeolite A and P, whereas, zeolite AX comprises of 20% zeolite 4A and 80% zeolite X. Zeolite X and AX can bind calcium and magnesium ions more effectively than either of zeolite A and zeolite P, which will continue providing tailwinds to zeolite X and AX for detergent sales over the assessment period.

Competitive Landscape

Leading players operating in the zeolite for detergent market are investing in strategic mergers and acquisitions, and are focusing on development and launch of advanced zeolites for detergent.
