The "Hydrogen Peroxide Market by Product Function, Grade, End-use Industry, and Region - Global Forecast to 2030" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The hydrogen peroxide market was valued at USD 3.48 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 4.70 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 5.1% during the forecast period.

The demand is driven by its wide usage across various industries due to its strong oxidizing properties and eco-friendliness. Hydrogen peroxide is notably used in the paper and pulp sector for chlorine-free bleaching, complying with sustainability goals. The electronics and semiconductor sectors also contribute to demand by requiring high-purity grades for precision cleaning. The move towards environmentally safe chemicals in industrial processes and water purification is further accelerating market growth, influenced by government regulations favoring biodegradable products.

35% Hydrogen Peroxide Segment

The 35% hydrogen peroxide segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Its widespread adoption in industrial applications is attributed to its optimal reactivity and safety balance. The concentration is favored in pulp and paper bleaching, chemical synthesis, textile processing, and wastewater treatment due to its effectiveness without necessitating extensive safety modifications.

The segment's growth is aligned with the increasing demand for environmentally friendly oxidizing agents, particularly where stringent sustainability norms apply. The versatility of the 35% grade enhances its commercial viability, projected to drive its leading growth trajectory.

Bleaching Function

The bleaching function is anticipated to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period, driven by its critical application in the pulp and paper, textiles, and electronics industries. Specifically, hydrogen peroxide is pivotal in elemental chlorine-free and total chlorine-free bleaching processes, aligning with environmental standards. In textiles, it supports sustainable whitening, while in electronics, it's crucial for wafer cleaning and etching within the semiconductor industry. Consistent demand coupled with favoring environmental regulations is propelling growth in the bleaching function.

Pulp & Paper Industry

The pulp and paper industry segment is expected to register the highest CAGR, motivated by extensive usage of hydrogen peroxide for eco-friendly bleaching and delignification processes. With the rise in demand for paper-based packaging and hygiene products in regions like Asia Pacific and Latin America, hydrogen peroxide's efficiency and sustainable credentials enhance its adoption. Compliance with environmental regulations and consumer preferences for eco-labeled products continue to drive its growth in this sector.

Asia Pacific Growth

Asia Pacific is projected to record the highest CAGR during the forecast period, attributed to robust industrial growth and increased manufacturing activities in countries such as China, India, and Southeast Asian nations. The region's pulp and paper, textiles, and chemical sectors are major hydrogen peroxide consumers. Environmental awareness and regulatory measures are pushing industries towards cleaner alternatives, enhancing adoption. Government investments in water treatment and a surge in electronics and semiconductor demand further fuel market growth. The region's competitive production costs and shifting global manufacturing focus bolster its dominance.
