Soda Ash Market: APAC Dominates the Global Market

According to USGS, due to oversupply of soda ash in China, the country has entered the export market and consequently, United States suppliers are struggling to achieve higher sales. The growing capacity of natural soda ash from China is due to large number of natural miners compared to U.S.

APAC consumption of soda ash is projected to increase at a CAGR of 3.4% per year during the next 6 years, as per the findings of the IndustryARC report. On the basis of regional analysis, APAC accounted for more than 50% of the global demand in 2018. Growing demand from soaps & detergents manufacturing, water treatment facilities, and metallurgy in China, India, Thailand and Indonesia has boosted the soda ash market demand. Europe, on the other hand, has witnessed stagnant growth owing to strict regulations for producing synthetic soda ash.

The world’s leading suppliers of soda ash are American National Soda Ash Corp., Solvay S.A., Nirma Limited, and OCI Wyoming. Following are some of the key competitive pointers noted by the IndustryARC analyst:
