The global sodium tetraborate market size reached 1656.6 Thousand Tonnes in 2023. By 2032, IMARC Group expects the market to reach 2537.1 Thousand Tonnes, at a projected CAGR of 4.90% during 2023-2032.
- Sodium tetraborate is widely used in cosmetics and personal care products as an emulsifier and pH adjuster which is important for maintaining product stability and performance. Sodium tetraborate demand is mainly driven by the global expansion of the cosmetic industry which continuously seeks effective and versatile ingredients going home the product formulations and to meet the consumer protections for quality and safety. According to a report by McKinsey & Company, in 2022 the beauty market which is defined as skincare, fragrance, makeup, and hair care generated approximately $430 billion in revenue. Nowadays beauty is on an upward trajectory across all categories. Furthermore, in a report published by Cosmetics Europe, it is mentioned that the majority of Europe’s 500 million consumers use cosmetics and personal care products every day to protect their health, enhance their well-being and boost their self-esteem.
- In the agriculture sector sodium tetraborate acts as an important micronutrient which is primarily used to correct the boron deficiency in the crops. Boron is an essential component for plant growth which influences reproduction and cell wall strength. The adequate boron supplementation through sodium tetraborate can significantly enhance crop yield and quality making it a critical component in agricultural practices. According to a report published by the World Bank, the agriculture sector accounts for 4% of global gross domestic product (GDP) and in some least developing countries it can account for more than 25% of GDP. As the global agricultural sector expands the need for effective boron supplementation rises thereby driving the sodium tetraborate market.
- Sodium tetraborate is highly sought after in household and commercial cleaning sectors because of its multifunctional properties. Sodium tetraborate enhances laundry detergents by boosting their cleaning power, aids in effective stain removal and acts as a water softener to improve overall cleaning efficiency. As consumer awareness and preference for ecofriendly cleaning products increases the sodium tetraborate demand is on the rise because of its low toxicity and biodegradability as compared to harsher chemicals. This shift towards environmentally conscious cleaning solutions is significantly driving the demand for sodium tetraborate positioning it as a preferred ingredient in sustainable household and commercial cleaning products.
