Market Overview

Sodium sulphate is a white crystalline solid which is used as a fundamental material to produce various items such as glass, detergents, kraft paper, cardboard and chemical compounds. The soap and detergent industries make use of sodium sulphate. Sodium sulfate functions as a feed additive for animals because it helps livestock improve their digestion and nutrient absorption. The increasing implementation of sustainable farming methods, together with the growing preference for environmentally safe agricultural chemicals and fertilizers has resulted in increased demand for sodium sulfate.

Grasim Industries Ltd. launched EcoSodium in May 2024 as an innovative, sustainable product that uses recycled Sodium Sulphate (SS) from Viscose Staple Fibre (VSF) manufacturing.

Shandong company in China launched an MVR plant in May 2025 to improve recovery efficiency and reduce emissions in industrial chemical processes, which follows the sustainable manufacturing trends. The Ministry of Employment and Labor (MoEL) of South Korea is enforcing a new amendment that requires all chemical substances to comply with updated standards for classification, labeling, and MSDS documentation, which includes Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) that must be completely updated by July 2026.

Restraining Factors

The sodium sulphate market in Asia Pacific is restrained by the growing use of concentrated liquid and tablet detergents, which require fewer or no sodium sulphate materials as industrial filler compared to standard powder detergents. The market prices of essential raw materials, together with fluctuations in energy costs, create unpredictable patterns that directly affect manufacturers' production costs and their ability to make profits.

Market Segmentation

The Asia Pacific sodium sulphate market share is categorised into nature and end use.

• The natural segment accounted for the largest revenue market share in 2024 and is expected to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period. 

The Asia Pacific sodium sulphate market is segmented by nature into natural, synthetic. Among these, the natural segment accounted for the largest revenue market share in 2024 and is expected to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period. The segmental growth is driven by its existence in abundance across regions that experience dry weather conditions. Glauber's salt provides eco-friendly advantages in textile dyeing because it decreases pollution and total dissolved solids (TDS) and effluent load.

• The detergents segment dominated the market in 2024 and is projected to grow at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period.  

Based on end user, the Asia Pacific sodium sulphate market is segmented into paper & pulp, detergents, glass, food & beverage. Among these, the detergents segment dominated the market in 2024 and is projected to grow at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period. The segmental growth is driven by sodium sulphate, which functions as an essential component within the detergent industry because manufacturers use it to produce powdered detergents. The high-water solubility of the substance enables it to function as a detergent booster, which improves cleaning efficiency. The increase in infectious diseases, such as COVID-19, has raised global hygiene awareness results in greater needs for cleaning products, hand sanitizers and laundry detergents.
