Sodium Bisulfite Market

Sodium Bisulfite Market Size

Industrial Grade will dominate with a 69.0% market share, while water treatment will lead the end-use industry segment with a 42.9% share.

NEWARK, DE, UNITED STATES, November 14, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The global sodium bisulfite market is projected to expand from USD 0.8 billion in 2025 to USD 1.2 billion by 2035, registering a steady compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.4%, according to validated insights from Future Market Insights (FMI), a leading source of market intelligence across polymers, composites, and chemical intermediates. The market is expected to grow by approximately 1.5 times during the forecast period, driven by rising demand for dechlorination, wastewater management, and industrial water treatment solutions.

FMI’s latest analysis identifies key factors shaping growth, including increased investment in water infrastructure, adoption of zero liquid discharge systems, and the development of high-purity chemical formulations for pharmaceutical and food-grade applications. However, the market may face headwinds from regulatory handling requirements for sulfite compounds and fluctuations in raw material supply chains.

Market Dynamics and Regional Outlook

Between 2025 and 2030, the market is anticipated to increase from USD 0.8 billion to nearly USD 1.0 billion, contributing 45.1% of the decade’s growth. This period will be characterized by robust adoption of sodium bisulfite for municipal and industrial water treatment, pulp and paper production, and food and beverage processing. Competitive dynamics will focus on production capacity expansion, distribution network enhancement, and strategic penetration into key sectors.

From 2030 to 2035, the market is expected to reach USD 1.2 billion, adding USD 0.2 billion in value, or nearly 54.9% of total expansion. Specialized formulations designed for pharmaceutical and food-grade applications, along with partnerships between chemical producers and end-user industries, will drive demand. Increasing industrial water quality standards and sustainable manufacturing initiatives will further enhance market adoption globally.

By Grade and Application

The industrial grade segment dominates the market, accounting for approximately 69% of total market share in 2025. Industrial formulations are extensively used in water treatment, chemical processing, pulp and paper, and textile industries due to their technical efficacy and cost-effectiveness. Food-grade (18%) and pharmaceutical-grade (13%) segments serve regulated markets requiring high-purity formulations for safe consumer and pharmaceutical use.

In terms of end-use industries, water treatment applications lead the market with 42.9% share, reflecting the critical role of sodium bisulfite in municipal dechlorination, industrial wastewater systems, and boiler water conditioning. Pulp & paper accounts for 17% of consumption, food & beverages 16%, textiles 14%, pharmaceuticals 7%, and other applications 3.1%. Expansion in these sectors is supported by regulatory mandates for wastewater treatment and water quality management.
