Calcium Chloride (CaCl2) refers to an inorganic compound that is characterized by high solubility. It acts as a typical ionic halide, which is obtained by neutralizing hydrochloric acid with calcium hydroxide. Calcium chloride is hygroscopic in nature, due to which it is extensively used as a desiccant in water treatment plans to maintain a continuous state of dryness. Apart from this, it is widely adopted as a de-icing agent, preservative in processed foods, and the production of paints, plastics, and medicines.

GCC Calcium Chloride Market Trends:

The GCC calcium chloride market is majorly being driven by the escalating product demand across the oil and gas industry, wherein it is used to establish and maintain wells, drill fluids, provide consistency, increase density, and stabilize shale formations. Additionally, increasing inclination toward a luxurious lifestyle and the incorporation of swimming pools in urban homes has accelerated the use of calcium chloride as a potential of hydrogen (pH) buffer, which aids in regulating the calcium hardness of the pool water. Apart from this, the product acts as an effective accelerator in the concrete industry, which is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Moreover, calcium chloride possesses the functional property to suppress the dust on roads, keep the road damp even in extremely hot and dry conditions, and bind aggregate particles together, which is positively influencing the market growth across the region.
