The Asia-Pacific to Create New Growth Opportunities for the Expansion of the Trisodium Phosphate Industry
The Asia-Pacific is expected to provide enhanced opportunities for the growth of the trisodium phosphate industry in the forecast period. The growing urbanisation and industrialisation and the rising demand for processed food products in developing countries, particularly India and China, are driving the industry growth in the Asia-Pacific. On the other hand, North America and Europe are witnessing reduced utilisation of trisodium phosphate for detergent applications. This can be attributed to the growing environmental concern and the implementation of stringent government regulations, leading to a shift in market dynamics and a rise in demand for food grade trisodium phosphate in the regions.
Trisodium Phosphate: Market Segmentation
Trisodium phosphate, often abbreviated as TSP, is an inorganic compound represented by the formula Na3PO4. In appearance, it is a white granular or crystalline solid. It readily dissolves in water to create an alkaline solution. It can be obtained via the neutralisation of phosphoric acid with sodium carbonate, leading to the formation of disodium hydrogen phosphate, which is further reacted with sodium hydroxide to produce trisodium phosphate. It has various applications, ranging from cleaning agent to food additive and degreaser.Based on grade, the market is bifurcated into:
- Food
- Technical
On the basis of application, the industry can be segmented into:
- Food Additive
- Detergents and Cleaners
- Metal Treatment
- Water Softener
- Others
Breakup by Region
- North America
- Europe
- Asia-Pacific
- Latin America
- Middle East and Africa
Growing Demand for Food Additives to Augment the Trisodium Phosphate Industry Growth
The thriving food industry and the increasing consumption of processed food products are driving the demand for food additives, which, in turn, is contributing to the growth of the trisodium phosphate industry. Within the food industry, trisodium phosphate is mainly utilised for processed cheese products and cereals. The market is being supported by the escalating disposable incomes and the advancements in the food processing sector. Further, the growing demand for detergents and industrial cleaners are also contributing to the industry growth. However, the use of trisodium phosphate is likely to decline in developed regions owing to the stringent environmental regulations. Although, the regions where there are no regulations on its usage will significantly drive the demand for the product in applications like detergents and cleaning products.Key Industry Players in the Global Trisodium Phosphate Market
