Ammonium Sulfate Market to Grow with a CAGR of 6.12% through 2030

Growing Sulfur Deficiency in Soils is expected to drive the Global Ammonium Sulfate Market growth in the forecast period, 2026-2030. 

According to TechSci Research report, “Ammonium Sulfate Market – Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F”, the Global Ammonium Sulfate Market stood at USD 3.92 billion in 2024 and is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of 6.12% in the forecast period. The global ammonium sulfate market is witnessing significant growth, driven by a combination of factors that have made this chemical compound indispensable in various industries, most notably agriculture, industrial processes, and chemical manufacturing. With the world's population expected to reach 9 billion by 2050, ensuring food security has become a top priority. Ammonium sulfate plays a crucial role in modern agriculture as a source of both nitrogen and sulfur, essential nutrients for plant growth. Farmers across the globe use ammonium sulfate as a fertilizer to enhance crop yields and improve the quality of produce. As the demand for food continues to rise, so does the demand for ammonium sulfate in agriculture.

Ammonium sulfate is not limited to agriculture; it is widely used in various industrial processes. One of its primary applications is as a flame retardant in the production of textiles, plastics, and paper. Industries value ammonium sulfate for its ability to reduce the flammability of materials, making them safer for consumers and complying with strict safety regulations. Additionally, ammonium sulfate is employed in water treatment to clarify water by coagulating impurities. These versatile industrial applications ensure a steady demand for ammonium sulfate. Environmental concerns and regulations have pushed industries to adopt greener practices. Ammonium sulfate production, often a byproduct of other processes like caprolactam production or flue gas desulfurization in power plants, aligns with sustainability goals. This makes it an attractive option for industries seeking to minimize their environmental impact. Furthermore, ammonium sulfate's low pH makes it ideal for treating alkaline soils, reducing the need for excess lime, which can have a detrimental environmental impact.

Emerging economies, particularly in Asia and Africa, are experiencing rapid urbanization and infrastructure development. This has led to increased construction activities and a growing demand for construction materials. Ammonium sulfate is used in construction materials, such as gypsum boards, as a flame retardant. As these regions continue to invest in infrastructure, the demand for construction materials containing ammonium sulfate is expected to rise.
