Potassium Sulfate (K2SO4, commonly referred to as sulfate of potash or SOP) is a water soluble, white and crystalline salt. Potassium Sulfate is the world's most popular low-chloride fertilizer.
Scope of the Report:This report focuses on the Potassium Sulfate in global market, especially in North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific, South America, Middle East and Africa. This report categorizes the market based on manufacturers, regions, type and application.
The Potassium Sulfate industry concentration is relatively high. The manufacturing bases are mainly concentrated in USA, Chile, China and Europe. In 2015, the leading manufacturers are K+S Group from Germany, Tessenderlo Group from Belgium, Compass Minerals from USA, SQM from Chile, YARA from Finland, Rusal from Russia, Sesoda from Taiwan, and five Chinese producers such as Guotou Xinjiang LuoBuPo Potassium Salt, Qing Shang Chemical, Migao Group, Qinghai CITIC Guoan Technology, and AVIC International Holding.
For manufacturing process of Potassium Sulfate, the most important manufacturing process is Mannheim process, MOP & Kieserite Process and brines (salt lakes) processing, respectively accounted for 51.18%, 20.26% and 28.56% in 2015. The manufacturers who adopt the brines (salt lakes) processing to produce Potassium Sulfate have advantages in manufacturing cost over other manufacturers who adopt the other manufacturing process.
The downstream demand was relatively stable in the past five years, and it will keep the growth trend in the future five years, because of it has been a must to some crops which are particularly sensitive to chlorine, such as potatoes, fruits, vegetables and tobacco. Although the price changed frequently, it is expected that the price will keep a slow downward trend in future due to excess capacity.
The worldwide market for Potassium Sulfate is expected to grow at a CAGR of roughly xx% over the next five years, will reach xx million US$ in 2026, from xx million US$ in 2020, according to a new study.
