Description
Growing Demand from Water and Wastewater Treatment Industry Fuel Europe Chlorine Market
In recent years, the chlorine demand has steadily increased from the water and wastewater treatment industry due to several factors crucial for maintaining public health and environmental sustainability. The growing population is leading to increased water consumption and wastewater generation, which puts immense pressure on water resources. As urbanization and industrialization continue to expand, the need to treat larger volumes of water and wastewater becomes paramount. Chlorine in various forms such as chlorine gas, sodium hypochlorite, or calcium hypochlorite is recognized as an effective disinfectant. It effectively eliminates harmful pathogens, bacteria, and viruses for water that can pose significant health risks if left untreated. Thus, chlorine is considered a crucial cost-effective solution to treat large quantities of water to ensure the delivery of safe and clean drinking water to millions of people across the region. Furthermore, robust water disinfection methods have become critical with the rise of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and the emergence of waterborne diseases. In addition to its primary role in pathogen removal, chlorine is used in water treatment to address other water quality concerns such as algae & algae toxin control and iron & manganese removal. Thus, upsurging demand for chlorine from the water & wastewater industry due to the rising water consumption from growing population and the increasing need to ensure safe and clean drinking water consumption drives the Europe Chlorine Market growth.
Europe Chlorine Market Overview
The Europe chlorine market is segmented into Germany, France, Italy, the UK, Russia, and the Rest of Europe. Europe relies on chlorine and its derivatives for various applications, leading to a steady and sustained demand for this versatile chemical. The demand for chlorine is growing in the wastewater treatment sector in Europe due to several reasons that highlight the significance of chlorine as a crucial water disinfection agent. As European countries strive to improve quality, protect public health, and meet stringent environmental regulations, chlorine has emerged as a reliable and effective solution for wastewater treatment.

According to Business Market Insights research, the Europe chlorine market was valued at US$ 3,903.28 million in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 5,117.24 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 3.9% from 2023 to 2030. Growing demand from water and wastewater treatment industry and flourishment of PVC manufacturing industry attributed to the Europe chlorine market expansion.
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is one of the most widely used synthetic polymers globally and finds applications in various sectors, including construction, automotive, electrical, packaging, and healthcare. The production of PVC involves the polymerization of vinyl chloride monomers, and chlorine is a key raw material in this chemical process. The construction and infrastructure development activities are increasing substantially. PVC pipes, fittings, and profiles are extensively used in construction due to their durability, cost-effectiveness, and versatility. As urbanization continues to accelerate in many parts of the world, the demand for PVC-based construction materials rises in tandem, leading to a higher need for chlorine to meet the polymerization requirements.
According to the European Council of Vinyl Manufacturers, PVC is the third-most-produced plastic in the world, after polyethylene and polypropylene. Approximately 70% of all PVC produced in Europe is used for flooring, windows, pipes, roofing membranes, and other building products. PVC’s lightweight nature, ease of processing, and cost-efficiency have made it a preferred choice for manufacturing automotive parts such as dashboards, door panels, and wiring covers. Therefore, the growth of the automotive sector propels the demand for PVC, which bolsters the requirement for chlorine as a raw material in PVC production. PVC films and sheets are widely used in packaging applications, particularly for food and pharmaceutical products. With the increasing demand for packaging goods and the growing focus on hygiene and product safety, the demand for PVC-based packaging materials has soared, further contributing to the chlorine demand from the PVC industry. In the electrical sector, PVC cables and wires are extensively used for electrical insulation due to their excellent electrical properties and fire-retardant characteristics. As the demand for electricity and electrical infrastructure continues to rise, the need for PVC-based electrical materials propels, consequently bolstering the chlorine demand. Thus, since PVC remains a preferred material in construction, automotive, packaging, and electrical applications, the need for chlorine in the polymerization process remains strong.
On the contrary, stringent government regulations for environment protection hampers the Europe Chlorine Market.
Based on application, the Europe chlorine market is segmented into ethylene dichloride/polyvinylchloride production, chloromethanes, isocyanates and oxygenates, solvents and others.
