高吸水性樹脂市場 : 2030年までの世界予測

Report Overview

The Super absorbent polymers market is projected to reach USD 13.2 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 6.3% from USD 8.7 billion in 2023. The combination of growing market trends, increasing application, consumer demand from emerging economies, and advancements in super absorbent polymers technology are driving the adoption and use of super absorbent polymers.

“Based on type, bio-based SAP is expected to be the fastest growing market during the forecast period, in terms of value.”
The biobased SAP is the fastest-growing market in super absorbent polymers due to several factors. The increasing demand for sustainable and eco-friendly products is driving the growth of the biobased SAP market. Biobased SAPs are made from renewable resources such as starch, cellulose, and chitin, making them more environmentally friendly than traditional SAPs. The use of biobased SAPs in personal care products such as diapers and sanitary napkins is also increasing due to their superior absorbency and biodegradability.

“Based on application, Personal Hygiene is the largest market during the forecast period, in terms of value.”
Super absorbent polymers are primarily used as absorbents for personal hygiene products such as diapers, adult incontinence products, and feminine hygiene products. The most important property of these products is their capacity to absorb liquid, urine, or blood. The increasing demand for personal hygiene products, including disposable diapers and feminine sanitary napkins, has significantly increased the demand for super absorbent polymers. Governments in developing countries have raised public awareness about personal hygiene by organizing health education programs and supporting private organizations working in the health sector, which has further increased the demand for personal hygiene products.

“Based on region, Asia Pacific is the fastest growing market for super absorbent polymers in 2022, in terms of value.”
The Asia Pacific region is estimated to be the largest market for super absorbent polymers, driven by the increasing demand from personal care and agricultural industries, especially in India, China, and Japan. The global market for super absorbent polymers is expected to continue growing, driven by the increasing demand for personal hygiene products and sustainable agriculture practices.
