Considering these important aspects of applications of sodium nitrate, the study of sodium nitrate
becomes an important read.
In recent times, there has been a rise in the demand for food preservatives from the rapidly growing
food & beverage industry. Preservation of processed food has been gaining importance over the past
few years. Sodium nitrate is being increasingly used as a preservative in specific processed meats,
such as bacon, jerky and luncheon meats. Moreover, the volume of processed food & beverage
consumed has been rising exponentially, which can be primarily attributed to the rising population with
high income groups, especially in developing economies. These factors have been largely contributing
to market growth.
In terms of geography, the sodium nitrate market can be been divided into seven regions – North
America, Latin America, Europe, South East Asia (SEA) and Rest of APAC, China, Japan and Middle-
East & Africa. China and SEA & the rest of APAC are dominating regions in the sodium nitrate market,
due to growing population and increasing demand for sodium nitrate applications across a diverse
range of industries. North America and Europe are the next most important regional markets for
sodium nitrate and Germany, France and the U.K. are key countries in the European region. The
sodium nitrate market in Asia is expected to be the most promising market for players during the
forecast period, owing to various factors such as developing healthcare facilities, growing chemicals,
plastic & rubber and paint & coating industries and the increasing use of sodium nitrate in
pharmaceutical & healthcare industries.
Competition Outlook
Some of the key manufacturers operating in the global sodium nitrate market include BASF SE, Merck
KGaA, Grupa Azoty, Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd., and Avantor Performance Materials, Inc. Some of
the other producers of sodium nitrate include Deepak Nitrite, Ricca Chemical Company and
LabChem, among others.
Vendor Developments
In August 2017, Deepak Nitrite Ltd. – an Indian manufacturer – filed a legal petition seeking review
investigations on sodium nitrite imports from China into India. This was further supported by some
other manufacturers operating in the country to protect their business interests pertaining to sodium
nitrate in the country. The result has been that the country’s Ministry of Finance has imposed a five
year anti-dumping duty on sodium nitrite imports from China, thereby providing a favorable judgment
to the petitioners.
Manufacturers of sodium nitrate have been expanding their manufacturing capacities to meet the
rising demand from their customers. For instance, in June 2016, SQM declared that it would be
increasing its total potassium nitrate production capacity by 500,000 metric tons per year.

Research Methodology
The market sizing of sodium nitrate will be done by adopting the data triangulation approach. The
demand side approach will be followed to assess the actual market size of sodium nitrate. Secondary
research is used during the initial phase to identify the feasibility of target products/technology
categories and their respective segments, product and service offerings, investment base in
manufacturing facilities, adoption rate and future impact of new technologies. Additionally, regional
consumption of sodium nitrate among end users is tracked at a granular level to obtain the most
accurate information. Each piece of information is eventually analyzed during the entire research
project, which builds a strong base for primary research information.
Primary research participants include demand-side respondents, such as marketing managers, and
procurement managers as well as key opinion leaders in addition to supply-side respondents, such as
sales professionals at the manufacturers’ end, distributors, wholesalers and exporters, who provide
valuable insights on trends, research applications of products and technologies, purchasing patterns,
services offered and associated pricing.
