Sodium Chlorite Market Analysis
The global sodium chlorite market size reached US$ 259.2 Billion in 2023. By 2032, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 436.7 Billion, at a projected CAGR of 6.00% during 2023-2032.
- The water treatment industry stands as a cornerstone for the growth of the sodium chlorite market. Its efficacy as a disinfectant and oxidizing agent makes it indispensable in purifying water for consumption, industrial processes, and sanitation. 8 out of 10 people in rural regions lack access to clean drinking water, according to the most recent data from UNICEF and the WHO. Moreover, children under the age of five report 1.7 billion cases of diarrhea annually. With escalating concerns over waterborne diseases and pollution, governments and industries worldwide are intensifying efforts to ensure clean water access. This compound's ability to efficiently eliminate pathogens and contaminants aligns perfectly with these objectives.
- The widespread product utilization for the bleaching process in the pulp and paper industry, which assists in producing high-quality paper products is favoring the market growth. The requirement for paper products rises in tandem with rising literacy rates and rising packaging demands. Also, according to the Confederation of European Paper Industries, the pulp and paper industry has an annual turnover of 115 billion euros and contributes 25 billion euros to the European Union (EU) GDP. This surge is driving the demand for the product as a key bleaching agent.
- Sodium chlorite's application as a bleaching agent finds significant traction in the textile industry, where pristine aesthetics and color uniformity are paramount. The global textile market is witnessing robust growth. It is anticipated to reach USD 1445.4 billion by 2032, growing at an annual pace of 3.8%. As consumers increasingly prioritize fashion trends and quality textiles, manufacturers strive to meet these expectations through efficient bleaching processes. Because it works so well at eliminating impurities and brightening fabric, this material becomes a top pick.
- The healthcare sector's reliance on the product stems from its potent antimicrobial properties and versatility in disinfection applications. In hospitals, clinics, and laboratories, maintaining hygienic environments is critical for patient safety and disease prevention. The U.S. healthcare spending increased by 4.1% to $4.5 trillion, or $13493 per person. In FY23, India's public healthcare expenditure accounted for 2.1% of GDP. Also, in 2022, the European government spent Є1221 billion on health, accounting for 7.7% of GDP. This chemical offers a potent solution for sterilizing medical equipment, surfaces, and water supplies. Furthermore, the growing trend towards preventive healthcare and infection control measures is resulting in a steady demand for this compound.

Product Description
Sodium chlorite (NaClO2) is a white crystalline powder or solid chemical compound. It is a strong oxidizing agent and a powerful disinfectant that is used in various industrial, commercial, and healthcare applications. It is soluble in water and slightly soluble in alcohol and has a molecular weight of 90.44 g/mol. At room temperature, this chemical is stable, but it can decompose upon heating to produce toxic chlorine dioxide gas.
It is primarily manufactured through the chemical reaction between sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and chlorine dioxide (ClO2). This reaction yields sodium chlorite along with sodium chloride (NaCl) as a byproduct. The process involves careful control of reaction conditions to ensure high purity and optimal yields.
It is used as a disinfectant for water purification, wastewater treatment, and sanitation and as a bleaching agent in the production of paper and pulp products. It is also employed in fabric bleaching and purification processes and as a disinfectant for medical equipment, surfaces, and water supplies.
