Latin America Potassium Carbonate Market has witnessed a vigorous growth in past years. The major factor driving the growth of the market is demand for glass products in developed parts of the region. Also, the glass industry is the largest customer of Latin America's potassium carbonate market. It utilizes potassium carbonate to manufacture specialty glasses such as tableware, fiber optics, flat panel display glass, light bulbs, and other glass products. Moreover, in 2021, the growing demand for food-grade potassium carbonate by the food industry has become a significant growth driver. Furthermore, the governments of the Latin American countries are promoting the production of potassium carbonate. The reason being that the process of manufacturing potassium carbonate requires absorption of carbon dioxide. Additionally, the pharmaceutical industries in Latin America constantly require potassium carbonate to fabricate medicines, and the agricultural sectors need it to make fertilizers. However, the primary factor which is most likely to restrain the growth of the potassium carbonate market in the coming years is the health hazard risks of direct use of potassium carbonate. Some of these risks include aggravation, heaving, swelling, and chronic effect. Moreover, the outbreak of corona virus has resulted in a significant restraint for Latin America's potassium carbonate market. Initially before the outbreak, in 2020, Latin America's potassium carbonate market had witnessed robust growth in demand. But later, the outbreak led to lockdowns and new rules for social distancing to prevent the spread of covid-19. Additionally, many manufacturers faced liquidity issues, and this resulted in disruption of the supply chain and contraction in demand for potassium carbonate. Also, the new guidelines led to a halt in production and transportation. However, the lockdown is lifted at present, and the potassium carbonate market is still recovering.
According to 6Wresearch, Latin America Potassium Carbonate Market size is anticipated to register growth during 2021-27. The Mexico is the leading country in Latin America's potassium carbonate market, holding the highest market share in the region. Moreover, Mexico’s well-established food industries and expanding glass industries engender demand for both food grade and industrial grade potassium carbonate. Furthermore, the growing awareness of health due to covid-19 led to the boom of the pharmaceutical market, thereby contributing to the demand for potassium carbonate. Also, AG chemicals, headquartered in Mexico, is one of the largest manufacturers of potassium carbonate in this region. Followed by the Mexico, Brazil holds a significant market share. Moreover, the growing usage of soaps, salts, and glass markets in Brazil has created a massive demand for potassium carbonate. Additionally, some of the other countries that hold a significant part of Latin America's potassium carbonate market are Argentina, Chile and Bolivia. Well-developed industries and advanced manufacturing techniques are the key growth drivers of these countries. Additionally, some major players in Latin America's potassium carbonate market are AG Chemicals Inc, Rot Quimica, Cloro internacional, Villarreal Division, High power de Mexico, and Ralchem.
The Latin American potassium carbonate market by product type is segmented into food grade, industrial grade, light, and heavy density. Amidst all the segments, industrial-grade potassium carbonate holds the highest market share and is utilized to manufacture various fertilizers, agrochemicals, glass, and soaps. Additionally, based on the manufacturing method, Latin America's potassium carbonate market is segmented into electrolysis, ion exchange, and ash. Amongst all, the Electrolysis method of manufacturing potassium carbonate is the most extensively used in Latin America. Also, the electrolysis method helps in carbon dioxide absorption, and hence, it is promoted by most countries in Latin America. Furthermore, the Latin American potassium carbonate market based on application is segmented into glass, chemicals, medicines, salts, dyes & pigments, food, cleaners, gas purification, and other applications. Amongst all, the application of potassium carbonate in glass products holds the highest market share in Latin America. Moreover, the application of potassium carbonate in salts, chemicals, and medicines is expected to increase substantially in the future.
