Chlorinating Agents Market size was valued at USD 5.11 billion in 2024 and is set to exceed USD 8.09 billion by 2037, registering over 3.6% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of chlorinating agents is evaluated at USD 5.26 billion. Many governments, non-profit organizations, and businesses around the world have numerous projects to purify and filter water resources to provide safe and sanitary water to a variety of sectors, including residential, commercial, industrial, and recreational activities. The use of chlorine and chloramines in water treatment plants is permitted by EPA regulations. The need for safe and disinfected water supply for drinking and other purposes is one of the key drivers of increasing sales of these agents and is expected to support market growth. Rising demand for chlorinated water is expected to drive the chlorinating agents market during the forecast period. The World Health Organization has approved chlorine as a primary disinfectant. Chlorine can be added to water to disinfect and kill bacteria. Official standards assume that chlorine concentrations of up to 4 milligrams per liter in drinking water are safe for civil and industrial use.
Due to strong demand from end-use sectors such as water and wastewater treatment, pharmaceutical, food and beverage industry, etc., the chlorinating agents market is expected to significantly increased. In addition, the growing demand for food preservatives is also increasing the scope for the use of chlorinating agents and is acting as a critical factor for the growth of the market over the forecast period.
