Market Overview:
The United States soda ash market is currently witnessing stable growth. Soda ash (sodium carbonate) refers to a white crystalline solid that is a member of the chlor-alkali chemical family. The commercial form of the compound is highly purified and is sold in various grades that differ primarily in bulk density. The United States represents one of the leading markets for soda ash across the North American region. Soda ash finds extensive application as an additive in home detergents and cleaning products as it is very effective in removing alcohol and grease stains from clothing. It is also used as a substitute for sodium hydroxide in cooking for lyeing, especially lye rolls and German pretzels.
The United States is one of the largest exporters of soda ash globally, driven by large production capacity. The country exports around half of the domestic production to other countries. Domestically, soda ash is used in various end use sectors, like the chemical, automotive and water treatment industries. The growing applications of soda ash in the glass industry represent one of the major growth-inducing factors. Besides this, due to the implementation of stringent regulations by the Government regarding industrial water, soda ash is utilized in wastewater treatment to improve the alkalinity of lakes and control the pH of water. On account of these factors, the market is expected to continue its steady growth during the forecast period (2020-2025).
