Europe Super Absorbent Polymer Market Forecast to 2030

At 5.8% CAGR, Europe Super Absorbent Polymer Market is Speculated to be Worth US$ 2,629.55 Million by 2030, says the Research Team

According to the Research Team’ research, the Europe super absorbent polymer market was valued at US$ 1,672.75 million in 2022 and is projected to reach US$ 2,629.55 million by 2030, recording a CAGR of 5.8% from 2022 to 2030. Strategic development initiatives by key market players and development of bio-based super absorbent polymer are among the critical factors attributed to drive the Europe super absorbent polymer market growth.

Super absorbent polymer manufacturers are investing significantly in strategic development initiatives such as product innovation, mergers & acquisitions, and expansion of their businesses to widen their customer base and enhance their market position. Many key players are exploring non-hygiene applications for super absorbent polymers, such as in agriculture, for improved water retention and crop yields. This diversification mitigates dependence on the saturated hygiene market and unlocks new revenue streams. Research and development are crucial in maintaining a competitive edge, addressing specific customer demands, and opening opportunities for novel applications. In 2021, BASF SE invested ~US$ 27 million for the development of the Super absorbents Excellence Center Belgium. The company aimed to equip the center with data collection and sensor technology to boost the process from product development to commercial scale. The introduction of applied robotics for automated sample testing in its development labs is followed by the implementation of advanced modeling in BASF’s digitization roadmap for its super absorbent business. Major manufacturers are adopting acquisition, expansion, and production capacity scaleup strategies to serve their customers better and satisfy their growing demands. Therefore, strategic development initiatives by key market players create lucrative opportunities in the super absorbent polymer market.
