Growing Demand for Eco-Friendly and Biodegradable Cleaning Chemicals
The Indian industrial cleaning chemicals market is witnessing a robust shift toward eco-friendly and biodegradable solutions due to increasing environmental regulations and rising awareness about sustainability. Stricter norms from regulatory bodies, such as the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) and the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), are pushing industries to replace conventional chemical-based cleaners with green alternatives that minimize environmental impact. For instance, in March 2024, the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) introduced the Ninth Amendment to the Hazardous and Other Wastes Rules, strengthening environmental safety regulations. This amendment reinforces CPCB’s commitment to stricter hazardous waste management, encouraging industries to adopt sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Manufacturing units, food processing plants, and healthcare facilities are actively adopting non-toxic, biodegradable cleaning agents to reduce hazardous waste generation and improve worker safety. Additionally, companies are investing in enzyme-based and plant-derived cleaning solutions that offer effective degreasing, disinfecting, and sanitization without leaving behind harmful residues. Furthermore, as businesses prioritize sustainability and compliance, manufacturers are focusing on developing concentrated, water-efficient cleaning solutions that reduce chemical wastage while maintaining high hygiene standards. This shift aligns with global trends and positions India as a growing market for sustainable industrial cleaning chemicals.
Rising Demand for Disinfectants and Hygiene Solutions in Industrial Spaces
The growing emphasis on workplace hygiene and sanitation is a key driver in the Indian industrial cleaning chemicals market, particularly in the post-pandemic era. Industries are prioritizing surface disinfectants, antimicrobial coatings, and hand sanitizers to maintain high cleanliness standards in manufacturing plants, warehouses, and office spaces. For instance, as per industry reports, in 2024, India's hand sanitizer market was valued at USD 150.63 Million and is projected to grow at a 5.1% CAGR through 2030. The pharmaceutical, healthcare, and hospitality sectors are experiencing significant demand for hospital-grade disinfectants that eliminate bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Additionally, companies in the automotive and heavy machinery sectors are integrating disinfection protocols into their maintenance routines to ensure worker safety. The increasing use of automated disinfection systems, such as fogging machines and electrostatic sprayers, is further driving the demand for quick-drying, residue-free disinfectants that enhance efficiency. As industries continue to adopt strict hygiene protocols, the market for industrial disinfectants and sanitation chemicals is expected to expand rapidly.
