Powder Defoamers Market

Powder Defoamers Market Forecast and CAGR

According to the latest research study conducted by Fact.MR., the significantly growing demand of anti-foaming agent from several end use industries will boost growth of powder defoamers market, which will grow at a CAGR of 4% to 5.5% during the period 2021-2031. Demand is expected to increase owing to the increasing usage of the substance in paints and coatings, paper and pulp, textiles, water treatment, pharmaceuticals detergents and many other sectors. Silicone based type is projected to remain the fastest growing powder anti foam agent in the coming years.

What is Driving Demand for Powder Defoamers?

Key players are shifting their focus from petro based variants to solvent free, bio based and sustainable raw materials to minimize the carbon footprint. Due to the easy usage of powder form, powder based defoamers are expected to witness a significant consumption rate in the coming years. Growing requirement of water treatment both in the industrial and municipal waste water stream to reduce water pollution, improvement of sanitation and safety will boost the demand of Powder Defoamers.

The growing trend of agrochemical formulation is anticipated to create significant growth opportunities for the market. Powder based anti foaming agents can process the dewatering of sludge and can expedite filtration, clarification and flotation.

Furthermore, the growing demand of easy use defoamers from paper and pulp, textiles, pharmaceuticals, detergents, Food and Beverages will benefit the consumption rate of the powder form.

Paper & Pulp Industry to Remain a Key Segment for the Consumption of Powder Defoamers

These substances are used to reduce the formation of foam which is caused by entrapped air in the paper and pulp factories. Paper and pulp industry are expected to remain a prominent end use segment for the powder anti foaming agent. These substances spread the air liquid interfacial area which result in the collapse of foam formation.

However, the growth rate of the paper and pulp industry can be affected in the coming years owing to increasing digitalization and decreasing focus on paper work. The growing recycling centers of paper is also expected to increase the demand of powder defoamers. Nevertheless, demand form subsectors such as specialty paper, packaging paper and industrial paper requirements would continue to provide growth avenues.

US and Canada Powder Defoamers Market Outlook

The substantial development in the industrial sector in US and Canada has boosted the growth of powder defoamers in these countries. Significantly developed end use sector including paints and coatings, detergents, paper and pulp, Food and Beverages, textiles and pharmaceuticals and many others have boost the demand.

Further, the significant presence of several key market participants are expected to maintain the dominancy of these countries in the production of powder defoamers all over the globe. Owing to the pandemic impact in US and Canada Defoamers consumption including the powdered form are expected to witness a dip down in recent times.

Asia Pacific Demand Outlook for Powder Defoamers

Asia Pacific region is anticipated to remain the fastest growing region all over the globe. With the substantially growing industrial sector in this region especially in China, South Korea, Japan, India etc., the growth rate of this region is projected to remain high during the forecast period. Growing end use industries including paper and pulp, pharmaceuticals, textiles, food and beverages and many others will boost the demand of powder defoamers.

The significantly growing demand for de foaming or anti foaming from several end use industries in Asia Pacific will maintain the demand in the coming decade. With the growing demand for municipal as well as industrial water treatment and increasing demand of detergent will also benefit the consumption rate of anti foaming agents, especially powdered form in near future.
