Coagulant Market Outlook:
Coagulant Market size was over USD 8.42 billion in 2025 and is anticipated to cross USD 15.81 billion by 2035, witnessing more than 6.5% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2026-2035. In the year 2026, the industry size of coagulant is assessed at USD 8.91 billion.
The reason behind the growth is impelled by the growing consumption of contaminated water across the globe. For instance, more than 2 billion people globally may become unwell owing to the unknown water quality of their rivers, lakes, and groundwater. As a result, there is an increased demand for wastewater treatment facilities to filter pollutants and suspended solids from wastewater. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), around 1.7 billion people worldwide used feces-contaminated drinking water in 2022.
The growing development of natural coagulants is believed to fuel the coagulant market growth. Plant-based coagulants are organic materials derived from natural sources, including the seeds, roots, and leaves of different plants are regarded as sustainable and environmentally beneficial substitutes for artificial substances. For instance, Hydrex organic coagulants are made from a renewable source of tree bark which is known to create around 48% less sludge than coagulants based on metal, leading to a reduction in the expenses and carbon footprint of disposal.
