Global and European Sulfamic Acid Market Outlook 2025–2035
Sulfamic Acid Market
Sulfamic Acid Market Size
The sulfamic acid market is projected to grow from USD 297.5 million in 2025 to USD 432.0 million by 2035, at a CAGR of 3.8%.
NEWARK, DE, UNITED STATES, November 20, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The global sulfamic acid market is experiencing sustained momentum, supported by expanding industrial cleaning requirements, high-purity chemical applications, and emerging sustainability-driven innovations across multiple sectors. According to the latest industry projections, the market—valued at USD 297.5 million in 2025—is forecasted to reach USD 432.0 million by 2035, registering a consistent 3.8% CAGR.
Sulfamic acid continues to be an essential industrial compound owing to its non-volatile, non-hygroscopic nature, high descaling efficiency, and favorable safety characteristics compared to more corrosive traditional cleaning acids. These properties position it as a preferred solution across metal finishing, pulp & paper, water treatment, detergents, and electronics manufacturing sectors.
Industrial Cleaning Remains the Dominant End-Use Segment
In 2025, industrial cleaning accounted for 40.1% of total sulfamic acid consumption, emerging as the leading end-use category. Industries such as chemical processing, power generation, and food manufacturing increasingly leverage sulfamic acid-based formulations to enhance equipment longevity, reduce downtime, and maintain regulatory compliance.
Its ability to effectively remove rust, scale, and mineral deposits—while minimizing corrosion—continues to drive adoption in mission-critical cleaning and descaling operations worldwide.

Solid Form Holds Majority Market Share
With a market share of 56.4% in 2025, the solid form of sulfamic acid remains the most sought-after product type due to its stability, ease of transport, and precise dosing characteristics. Growing usage in descaling agents, metal surface treatment, analytical laboratories, and chlorine sanitizing systems positions the solid category to retain its lead. By 2025, the solid segment is projected to capture 74.8% of total demand, underscoring its superior versatility across commercial, industrial, and household applications.
Technical/Industrial Grade Emerges as the Leading Category
The technical/industrial grade segment accounts for nearly 68% market share, driven by its extensive use in dyes, detergents, process chemicals, and large-scale industrial cleaning agents. As global manufacturing continues to scale, the demand for high-purity and cost-effective technical-grade sulfamic acid is expected to accelerate.
Regional Market Outlook: APAC, North America, Europe & Saudi Arabia Lead Expansion
United States – CAGR 25.2% (2025–2035)
The United States is witnessing robust growth due to rising demand for eco-friendly industrial cleaning solutions.
