The growing demand for sodium hydroxide from various end-use sectors is encouraging market players to invest heavily in expanding their production capacities. East Asia is estimated to remain a key regional market owing to increasing applications, particularly driven by the demand for textile chemicals in the textile industry.

Furthermore, the outbreak of the COVID-19 virus has resulted in reduced growth of many end-use industries including automotive and construction. This outbreak also has impacted the chemical industry. The losses arising during the pandemic have resulted in subduing growth for the sodium hydroxide market. However, the increasing demand in the pulp and paper industry is expected to support recovery of the sodium hydroxide market.

Key Takeaways from Sodium Hydroxide Market Study


  • Caustic lye holds over 63% of the global value share in 2021 owing to easier applications particularly in the chemical industry.
  • Textile applications will account for over 19% of the market through the end of 2031, driven by inking and dyeing applications.
  • China is dominant in East Asia with a share of over 63% through the assessment period, supported by the presence of prominent end-use industries in the country.
  • The U.S. is a lucrative market accounting for over 89% of North America, propelled by demand in the automotive and construction sectors.
  • India followed by ASEAN countries account for a cumulative share of over 72% of the South Asia and Pacific market, albeit driven by a fragmented end-use sector.
