Global Soda Ash Market to Escalate due to Demand from Glass and Soap & Detergent Industries

Industry Trends:

China is the leading soda ash consumer, and the market has influenced diverse international players in considering the region as a market prospect. For instance, Kazan Soda Elektrik, a European soda ash manufacturer is now eyeing China as their possible buyer. Expansion of other end-user industries can also propel the market growth. Recently, French glass manufacturers Saint Gobain has opened a branch in China which can indirectly influence the demand-sale factors.

Top Leaders:

Tata Chemicals Limited (India), Searles Valley Minerals (U.S), OCI Wyoming, LLC (U.S), Solvay S.A. (Belgium), Nirma Limited, (India), GHCL Limited (India), and others

Market Competition:

Fluctuating price of the raw materials is a key threat making the formulation of a suitable cost-pricing policy difficult. Low-cost natural soda ash produced in the U.S. is exerting pressure on exports. In addition, Europe has decided to shut down a number of synthetic soda ash manufacturing units, which impacts the market negatively.

Regional Analysis:

Geographically, Soda Ash Market can be segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific (APAC) and Rest-of-the-World (RoW).

The APAC region accounts for the maximum revenue due to the presence of significant manufacturing companies. Particularly, in China. It mostly satisfies its demand by manufacturing soda ash using Solvay method. India also has an impressive impact and will continue to do so in the near future. The market is now poised to experience better growth. Thriving soap & detergent industry can direct the soda ash market to a new level. Thailand and Indonesia are also emerging as new leaders, which can boost the region’s market prospects.

North America comes second in terms of production and consumption. The U.S. leads the continent and is second only to China. However, there is one big difference. In contrast to China’s manufacturing, soda ash in the U.S. comes mostly from natural sources of district Wyoming.

Europe comes next where the growing soap & detergent industries have created some opening for the otherwise stagnant market. However, much cannot be expected.

Drivers and Restraints:

With rapid urbanization, construction and automotive industries are thriving. Soda ash has a positive impact in these sectors as the component is often used in the manufacturing of flat glasses needed mostly in these two sectors.

Growing awareness regarding health and hygiene across developed and developing countries have spurred the sale of soaps and detergents for cleaning purposes resulting in the increasing demand for soda ash. Water treatment facilities also use soda ash. With rapid urbanization, this intake is also rising, furthering the market growth.

However, the harm done by the manufacturing process of synthetic soda ash and fluctuating price of the natural soda ash can impede the market growth.
