The market is driven by the increasing use of the compound in disinfectants, primarily drives the demand for hydrogen peroxide in the region. With the spread of coronavirus disease (COVID-19), hydrogen peroxide is being extensively utilised for manufacturing sanitizers and hygiene products.

Market Overview

Asia Pacific represents the largest market for hydrogen peroxide across the world. The increasing use of the compound in disinfectants primarily drives the demand for hydrogen peroxide in the region. The pulp and paper industry now uses hydrogen peroxide more frequently because of its emission-free and environmentally safe characteristics. The use of this bleaching agent increased significantly in the pulp and paper industry due to ease of use, improved paper quality, lower production costs, increased yield percentage, and being environmentally friendly.

Evonik and Fuhua Tongda Chemicals Company (Fuhua) have established a joint venture in Leshan, Sichuan Province, to produce and market hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in China. The new company, Evonik Fuhua New Materials (Sichuan) Co., Ltd., has Evonik as a 51% shareholder with the other 49% held by Fuhua. Fuhua's industrial-grade H2O2 will supply the joint venture, which will manufacture speciality-grade hydrogen peroxide used in solar panels, semiconductors and food packaging.

In September 2025, the Government of India approved an exemption for importing aerospace-grade hydrogen peroxide, which will be used in space research and development. DCM Shriram Ltd. has officially started operations at its new Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) facility, which produces 52500 tons per annum at its Chemical complex in Jhagadia, Bharuch, Gujarat. The company will use H2O2 as a new product, which belongs to its chemical business, while it produces hydrogen from its chemical production facility. Solvay announced plans to expand the capacity of its Shandong Huatai Interox Chemical site in China.
