Key Takeaways:

APAC Dominates the Market

Asia-Pacific holds the largest share of the ammonium carbonate market, accounting for approximately 40% in 2024. This dominance is driven by the region's robust manufacturing sector. APAC is a hub for pharmaceutical manufacturing, food processing industry, textile and chemical industries where ammonium carbonate it used. India’s textile sector is one of the oldest industries in the Indian economy. The market for Indian textiles and apparel is projected to grow at a 10% CAGR to reach US$350 billion by 2030 with exports expected to reach US$ 100 billion, as per India Brand Equity Foundation. In order to attract private equity and employee more people, the government introduced various schemes such as the Scheme for Integrated Textile Parks (SITP), Technology Upgradation Fund Scheme (TUFS) and Mega Integrated Textile Region and Apparel (MITRA) Park scheme. 

Food & Beverages is the Largest Segment

The food and beverage is the largest segment fueled by the rising popularity of baked goods. Ammonium carbonate's role as a leavening agent makes it indispensable in creating light textures in baked products. The increasing consumer shift towards processed and packaged foods globally further propels growth in this segment. The baking industry generates over $42 billion in direct wages and has an overall economic impact of over $186 billion, according to the American Bakers Association.  Ammonium carbonate (E503) is a safe EU-approved food additive commonly used as a rising and alkalizing agent with no maximum usage limits for general applications. 

Technical Grade is the Largest Segment

Technical grade ammonium carbonate holds the largest share in the market due to its widespread industrial applications. It is commonly used in various industries such as chemicals, textiles and personal car, where high purity is not a strict requirement. In the chemical sector, it serves as a crucial component in the production of ceramics, intermediates and dyes. The textile industry also utilizes technical grade ammonium carbonate for dyeing and printing applications. Additionally, it is used in cleaning agents and fire extinguishers due to its decomposition into ammonia and carbon dioxide when heated. With the standards provided by the National Fire Protection Association, Construction Products Regulation by the European Union and the Fire Safety Act in the UK, installation of fire extinguishers has become compulsory in companies, residential areas and public premises.

Growing Demand from Personal Care Industry to Drive the Market

In hair care, ammonium carbonate is essential in hair dyes and colorants, where it helps open the hair cuticle for color penetration. With the increasing popularity of hair coloring in both salons and home-use products, the demand for ammonium carbonate is rising. Additionally, it is used in skin care products like lotions and creams to adjust pH levels and improve texture. The personal care sector’s focus on premium, effective formulations is further boosting the demand for ammonium carbonate. Deodorants is one of the biggest and most profitable categories in Unilever.
