Abstract
Global demand to increase 2.5% yearly through 2013
Global demand for salt is forecast to grow 2.5 percent per year to 305 million
metric tons in 2013. Expansion of salt demand in developing countries will
more than offset the expected contraction of salt markets in advanced
economies. The large chemical manufacturing market will generate the majority
of additional demand between 2008 and 2013 due to strong expansion of chemical
manufacturing activity in China. This country was the largest consumer of salt
in 2008, mostly due to its sizable chemical manufacturing industry, but also
because of the dietary needs of China' s 1.3 billion residents. China accounted
for nearly one-quarter of global salt demand in 2008, and is projected to be
the fastest growing major national market between 2008 and 2013 as its economy
continues to expand robustly. Because China' s domestic salt production is not
expected to keep up with demand, China is forecast to be the fastest growing
salt importer.
Salt demand in emerging economies (e.g., India, Ukraine) is forecast to grow
particularly fast through 2013, as their continuing industrialization
increases their use of salt as an input for chemical manufacturing and other
industries. These countries will also be among the fastest growing salt
producers, as their domestic salt industries expand to meet local demand.
Chemical production market to grow faster than average
Chemical manufacturing is the principal use for salt, and accounted for the
majority of demand in 2008. Most demand in this market is generated by
chloralkali and synthetic soda ash producers, which use salt as the primary
raw material. Approximately one-half of salt consumed by the chemical
manufacturing market is concentrated in the Asia/ Pacific region, which
accounts for the largest share of global chemical manufacturing activity.
Although an expected deceleration in chemical manufacturing activity will slow
growth of related salt demand, this market is forecast to grow faster than
average between 2008 and 2013.
Solar evaporation method to gain market share
In 2008, solar evaporation was the most popular method of producing salt,
owing to its widespread use in the Africa/ Mideast, Asia/Pacific and Latin
America regions. In areas with a favorable climate, this is the most
economical method of producing salt. Solar evaporation is projected to account
for an increasing share of global salt production through 2013. In 2008, rock
salt and brine accounted for the largest share of salt production in North
America and Western Europe.
Study coverage

Salt global demand expected to increase 2.5% yearly through 2013
March 12th, 2010
Global Information would like to present a new market research report, "WORLD SALT (Industry forecasts for 2013 & 2018)" by The Freedonia Group.
The global demand for sale is projected to reach 305 million metric tons in 2013 growing at a rate of 2.5% per year. The large chemical manufacturing market will produce the majority of additional salt demand between 2008 and 2013 as a result of the strong development of chemical manufacturing activity in China.
China was the largest consumer of salt in 2008, mostly because of its sizable chemical manufacturing industry, but also largely due to the dietary needs of a country with 1.3 billion residents. In fact, China comprised nearly a quarter of the 2008 global salt demand. China is forecasted to be the fastest growing major national market between 2008 and 2013 as its economy continues to exhibit robust growth. It is also expected that China will be the fastest growing salt importer due to the fact that the countrys domestic salt production will not be able to satisfy the entirety of its demand.
Solar evaporation was the most popular method of salt production in 2008. In regions with a favorable climate (e,g, Africa/Middle East Asia/Pacific, Latin America), solar evaporation is the most economical method for producing salt. Moreover, solar evaporation is forecasted to make up an increasing share of global salt production though 2013. The principal use for sale is chemical manufacturing. Chloralkali and synthetic soda ash producers, which utilize salt as the primary raw material, create most of the demand in this market. The market is projected to grow faster than average between 2008 and 2013 despite expectations of future deceleration in chemical manufacturing activity.
