(Belgium), LANXESS AG (Germany), Clariant AG (Switzerland), The Dow Chemical Company (U.S.), Ecolab Inc. (U.S.), Thor GmbH (Germany), BASF SE (Germany), Stepan Company (U.S.), and Albemarle Corporation (U.S.).
Based on method, the microbial control chemicals market is segmented into sterilization, disinfection, and antisepsis. In 2024, the sterilization segment is expected to account for the largest share of the microbial control chemicals market. This segment's large market share is driven by increasing demand for sterilization in pharmaceutical, healthcare, and food processing facilities and advancements in sterilization chemicals.
However, the disinfection segment is projected to record the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This segment's rapid growth is primarily driven by rising awareness about hygiene, advancements in disinfection technologies, the introduction of eco-friendly disinfection solutions, and expanding applications of various microbial control chemicals, such as aldehydes, oxidizing agents, halogens, alcohols, and phenolics.
Based on Type, the microbial control chemicals market is segmented into phenolics, halogens, oxidizing agents, aldehyde, alcohol, heavy metals, and other microbial control chemicals. In 2024, the phenolics segment is expected to account for the largest share of 36.0% of the microbial control chemicals market. This segment's large market share is due to increasing demand for effective disinfection solutions, concerns over microbial contamination, and increasing utilization of phenolics in healthcare and food processing.
Based on End-use Industry, the microbial control chemicals market is segmented into water treatment, healthcare, personal care, food & beverage, wood preservation, oil & gas, and other end-use industries. In 2024, the water treatment segment is expected to account for the largest share of the microbial control chemicals market. This segment's large market share is attributed to declining freshwater resources, rising incidence of waterborne diseases, rapid population growth & urbanization, stringent water treatment & environmental regulations.
Based on geography, the microbial control chemicals market is majorly segmented into five regions: North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. In 2024, North America is expected to account for the largest share of the microbial control chemicals market, followed by Asia-Pacific, Europe, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. The large share of this regional market is attributed to the presence of major market players, well-established food processing and pharmaceutical industries, and strict regulations regarding food safety & hygiene in the region, and advanced healthcare infrastructure.
